So I had my first "official" street race tonight... A buddy of my brothers bought a black 2011 3.6L V6 Dodge Challenger (just the base model) and decided he wanted to go out on the interstate and go toe to toe with my Crossfire. We had two races, the first race I beat him pretty well from the start. The second race, I beat him off the line but once we hit about 60mph he started inching up. We both drive automatics, and I completely forgot to use the slap stick. His car switched to 5th gear before mine did and he got about 1 foot in front of me. Then once we hit 130mph we had to stop cause we caught up with traffic... so i considered him winning that one...

But the moral of the story tonight was that I got really inspired to start upgrading the engine. I started listing what i need mainly to increase acceleration and horsepower. So far my list is: needswings CAI, 74mm throttle body, Eurochared tune. As an upcoming freshman at the University of Memphis, I cant afford anything too expensive, so these things are my best bet right now. If any of you guys have anything to say of have any tips or other smaller parts (such as filters, etc.) for me to upgrade whats under the hood, I really like feedback!
