He wasn't getting traction at all. His "best" 60' was a high 2.3 it was barely almost a 2.4 if you rounded.

And I would love to see a non srt crossfire trap at over 98. Even redcross with his modifications was trapping at only 94 mph. 4 mph is huge.

And walking anything on the highway shows the more powerful car. Not to mention, SRT-4's loose alot of their oomph, after 3rd gear. The Eclipse GT's are dynoing at 245-250 whp stock. You can say they are underrated a tad. And at the track I was a second ahead of him.

Btw, the crossfire is slow, just having no power and 255 of sticky rubber help get those et's down.
