I think they're trapping 111+mph off the showroom floor. Not bad for 31-35K (if you can avoid dealer mark-up). They are what the SRT Challenger SHOULD have been.

He's talking about beating full bolt on 370Z's that don't even exist yet, and telling everyone not to worry about anything.

Some people like to do it though and that is great but if they would actually go out there once in a while and race they might just find out it is a hell of a lot more fun than sitting at home making up excuses and never doing anything.

That's like starting a thread about how a Crossfire does against a Camaro, then have SRTpowa show up in his 10 second LS1 Z28.
Like I said, I'm be far more interested in a stock vs stock race.

What is the big deal if someone loses to a much faster car (10sec camaro vs crossfire as you put it) as long as they are out there having fun?
Of course a stock vs stock race would be great to see but jfire or the 370z are not stock so that is not going to happen. i still want to see the race, it will be fun regardless. that is the entire point, having fun is it not? i know some people take it so seriously that they no longer enjoy having a car or they will not even race they are so scared to lose. that is no fun at all.
jfire, be sure and post up the results. who ever wins we will just have to see. maybe you will launch bad and he will win, maybe not. post up the vid either way.

There are just farrrrr more reliable and easy ways to get to the 10's with an LS3.

Oh I'd say all of your posts. Ever. It's obvious that you think
Lol, you are 100% wrong on that one
Again. Read Jfire's post and ask yourself why you're in this thread. Thanks.
because it is funny, your welcome.

370z's do exist, go check one out at your local nissan dealership!
Right. Just like there are more mid 11 second SRT-4's in my city than there are 11 second SRT-6's on the entire planet. Doesn't keep most of the members here from thinking like they drive a Ferrari that can't be mentioned in the same breth as a FWD "ricer tuner car!!111!oone!".
Oh my goodness! that is incredible!

Are you even reading this thread? Look what Jfire said in response to SRTPowa:
https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum/374832-post23.html
As if his race is going to settle anything. It's only going to prove that a full bolt on, tuned SRT-6 can beat an essentially stock 370. I was meerly asking what part of this debate is going to be settled? Uh, how about nothing at all.
Understand?

Yeah. That's what makes it imaginary bench racing. He's declared we have nothing to worry about without a single race. Hello?

Not full bolt on ones like he is insinuating won't touch us in a straight line. Again, reading is fundamental. I'm aware STOCK 370's exist. I love to check out the competition, so I've actually DRIVEN one. Same with the Hyundai Genesis 3.8.

I knew you'd have trouble wrapping your brain around it. Unbelieveably, the SRT-6 is NOT the fastest car ever produced. There are some formidable FWD opponents out there for far less than the 45K that the SRT-6 cost, AND there isn't a Santa Claus. I'll post the suicide hotline for you, if you'd like.

I will pretend race some more later, i am leaving work and off to go ride my bike. Heck i may even get into an imaginary race or two while grabbing a coke at the local 7-11.

Once I get that low time, I'm going to post it in my signature and completely stop racing anyone.
Then, I'm going to the track. I'm going to stand at the end of the strip, and ANY car (TT Z06, Viper, dragster) that runs slower for ANY reason (misshift, wheel spin, stall, mechanical issues) I'm going to jump on their hood and say MRPHOTOMAN SAID I HAVE A FASTER CAR THAN YOU!!! I LIVE IN A VACCUM!!! QUIT MAKING EXCUSES RICER!!!

I am going to look at it tonight. With over 20k in mods he is practically giving it away for the price of a stock Camaro. I might trade him my bike or quad + cash if we can work out a deal. If not, I'll save my money and wait.
