Default how far do we want to go?

dragstrip wise, would anyone want to put a roll cage in their car in order to legally run under 11.500 et?

Only MD will probably be the only one putting in a cage. 240 what about you?

No cage for me. That's over the top, as far as I'm concerned - not what I bought the car for. I'd be happy with low 12's, but it sure wouldn't bother me to get kicked off the track for beating 11.5 without a cage. In fact, I would hope there were pictures of it!

Personally, I enjoy the speed with the somewhat stock look....Granted I don't own a SRT-6, but am just saying that in my opinion I would prefer the 12's with no track evictions

I would have to agree, It is the thrill of knowing my car could safely run an 11 even if it was an 11.8. I will do what ever possible before the bottle to make sure that it happens. If you have an 11.5 car you should be able to run 11s all day long

I am not interested in putting in a roll cage either. But I certainly wouldn't mind hitting the high 11's. There is a Z06(?) Vette hitting 11.8 at Woodburn that I would love to embarass.

i agree i would like to run past 11.5 and ill just do it on the street mostly. but when i do go on the track it would be one great run. and the best thing in my mind would be that if you are running 11.5s your gonna be in the 11s pretty much all the time maybe a 12 on a 100 degree day

mid 11"s for a street car is all i want, for a car that runs low 13's 100% stock, mid 11's is not that hard, it just takes money,. so if everyone here would send $5.00 to me on say Oct 1 I be in the mid 11's soon after that,, then on Dec 1 we send 5.00 to another racer, and so on until we get all the racers in the 11 second range. this is to repasent the crossfire, like people think the corvette is. jim

why? do you have mods (not including NOS) that will get the srt6 to that number?

We should do like we did for the pillar pods and throw in for R&D for parts we want that haven't been made. If we get enough people it would be cheap and make the aftermarket so much better. I would throw in for worthy parts.

No cage for me, roadster+cage=ugly. As far as what kind of times I'd like to be pullin, this question has been on my mind for the last week or two. I know I won't be happy until I'm 11.5 or under w/out spray. I truly want to hang on to this car until it falls apart but if it can't produce the #'s I want I'll have to go another route (ls3 corvette or gt500). I'm willing to spend the money and wouldn't mind all too much about chipping in for the R&D costs. Rob, thanks for all you've done so far for our cars, hopefully there are some more ideas that are on your mind that you haven't shared with us.

-Josh

I'd be game as well. Not a HUGE contribution, but I think it's a sound idea

I prefer no cage and getting kicked out a few times.

I'd want a car that goes low 11's on street tires (wishfull thinking maybe).

Cage is a lil much, would rather get booted off the track for now.

I will keep buying go-fast goodies, since I will never take it to the 1/4. No matter how fast, I will not put a roll cage in my car.

for me high 11's would be great.One thing i dont want to give up is my everyday driveability.That is the same reason i went stage3 in my srt4 instead of all the aftermarket stuff.I could jump in and go everyday but the car still hauled butt.And that is exactly what im looking for with the srt6.You can bet i will be talking to ya this weekend at the cruise

Cool Re: how far do we want to go?

No cage, 11.5 and getting booted would satisfy me.
