What's the scoop on RUST?
The SRT is respectable as a drag racing platform. Had production continued perhaps more aftermarket work would have been done there. As it is the Benz crowd provides most of the impetus. Not really a drag car bunch.
Street racing is going to happen if you have a small car with some HP. The number of times a GT mustang, a Ricere'd honda or a little Chevy wants to play at a stoplight has not decreased a bit since I bought my NA. Worse if I'm in the SRT. Both represent themselves with respectful performance.
The SRT has never seen the butt side of a street competitor.
That said, draggin' is not why most of us bought our Crossies. If that's what you are looking to do, buy something else.
