Default Track times

I took my totally stock '05 SRT6 to the Street Legal Import Challenge at the local drag strip. They let me race in the open class. I raced a V8 Firebird (not even close) and several other import cars. The only one that beat me was a volkswagon rabbit with a turbo as big as a rotary and two nitrous bottles with huge slicks on it, but only by about 4 car lengths. I drove it there, made my runs and drove home. No mods, no tire pressure changes and letting it shift itself. It would let me brake torque with the traction control off and I could really roast the back tires. My times were: 13.3 13.2 13.2 13.3 and 13.2. All were around 106.5 mph. The guy in the rabbit thought he was hot sh*t. Told him that if he really wanted to impress me, get in his car and drive to dallas with the AC on and CD player cranked. For a totally stock street car that has been Drag Raced, taken to several SCCA competitions and raced and has been at 150 mph several times (peeled my base sticker right off the windshield), I would not trade this car for anything else. I have other cars I have fun with but this car is one to itself. My wife and I are fixing to drive it from Louisiana to Niagara Falls New York in a few days. Can't wait!! (Except for staying under that triple digit thing).

There are plenty of other cars out their that will easily beat the srt6, but not many that can do it in stock form.

I have been to the track 2x with the SRT6, with a best time of 13.06 @ 109 mph on the continental tires and completely stock.

Unfortunately my friend didn't get it on film.

I actually raced mine this past weekend at a special bracket race for street class at Atco...I normally race my "race" cars, but I figured what the hell...Car ran great in the poor weather conditions (90 deg and 43% humidity) and a slight cross/head wind. I staged the car DEEP (adds another tenth to the time) and ran the car as hot as i could get it so i could get some consistency from it. Car ran 13.43 @ 105 first pass. The car stayed pretty consistent through the 3rd round, then it was going a 13.35, but the wind had died so...I figure good weather, shallow staged and running the car cooler will put this beast in that 13.0 range if it hooks up...Not bad at all for stock! I was happy with the times.
