Toasted a Crossfire SRT-6
Thought this was worth showing. Anyone in his area please look this Ahole up and give him a good run for his money.
Toasted a Crossfire SRT-6
Finally another kill to report on. I know, I been slacking lately on my kill reports. I think I am the first to bag a kill on a Crossfire SRT-6, 330hp/310ft-lbs supercharged V-6.
Coming home from the gym, I take a street that takes me through rows and rows of dealerships. Driving along, I spot a crossfire pulling out of a dealership with a temp tag and think to myself "there's one born every minute". Now, at the time I think its just another anemic crossfire driven by "wannabe cool" guy. Its been my experience that crossfires never want to race, probably because they've been spanked so hard by all of us. Now, I pass this guy thinking he was going to have that wounded look about him. We come to a light and now I look over to see whos driving miss daisy....I mean who's driven this crossfire. Now stop and think for a moment. If you had a neighbor beats his dog everyday, the dog would probably flinch whenever your neighbor went outside. So, I was expecting this guy would keep his eyeballs straight ahead, avoid eye contact, pretending like he doesn't exists and slowly counting to himself the number of payments before he could trade in his car for a real sports car. Damn that was a long sentence. But this guy wasn't "flinching". In fact, he had a big smile on his face like "you want a piece of this". In my mind, I was thinking "piece of what, dumba$$? Have you no brains at all? Have you not been schooled enough by Zs all over town?". So, I give the guy a nod and I knew it was on.
Now picture yourself sitting at a light next to a regular crossfire. A brand new stock Z next to a crossfire is like bringing a shotgun to a knife fight. But now picture yourself at the light in a Z with a twin turbo. Now its like bringing a rocket launcher to a knife fight. However, this guy wasn’t weilding a knife.
Now, the light finally turns green and I get an okay launch (I’ll admit, I didn’t know this was a SRT-6 and was taking her a little easy). I top off first gear, he’s still next to me with his front bumper at my rear wheels. I top off second, and he’s still next to me at the same spot!
Okay, intermission time: When you’re driving a TT that’s boosted up, you cant merely floor it in first and second gear. Otherwise you would end up sitting at the light leaving your precious and expensive rubbers behind. No not that kind of rubbers, tires, I mean tires. So, that fact that this guy is staying with me to this point only has me concernced because I knew it wasn’t an anemic crossfire I thought it was. At this point I knew it was an SRT6! Back to our show now already in progress...
Okay, now I am pissed and excited at the same time (please, no fetish emails, thank you). I am pissed because I have to hold back the twins in first and second and this...and this...crossfire is still right next to me. I am excited because I am racing a SRT6 and about to unleash the twins in third gear and if I really feel like embarassing this guy I will let the twins play in fourth gear too. As soon as I hit third, floored it, it was over. My Z sprung forward like a crack ***** jumping for....money(you thought I was going to say d1ck, huh? you dirty ba$$tard) and immediately gave this guy an eye exam(let him read my plate). Now I see him in my rear view mirror and slide into fourth. Now he’s way back there. And no I didn’t get to measure “car lengths”. By now we are quickly approaching the next light and I shut her down in the middle of fourth. He pulls up next to me and gives me another nod. I think he had enough and had that wounded dog look about him. Poor guy, just when you think your crossfire will own a Z, we bring you down in flames.

Not following what makes you mad? A faster car than SRT6? Or another dork with a "so there I was" car story?

Re: Toasted a Crossfire SRT-6
Not sure if this is the car he used on the SRT. Or if it is even his car at all.

This is a quote from one of his post from above forum.., Of course, this little thing I call a hobby has been pretty expensive. I stopped keeping track after I passed 25k!
And he feels good about beating an SRT? With that kind of money invested!

Re: Toasted a Crossfire SRT-6
I would hope a "500+hp" car could beat a off the dealership temp tagged srt6... altho 500+ hp on the street is near retarded...

Re: Toasted a Crossfire SRT-6
you know, I got to see a MB slk65 blk....and I got see it on NOS, with street slicks...run the quarter in 11.7...then I went out and did a 12.4 with bad street tires...of course he won....but I look at it this way, $225,000.00 vs $25,000.00....and it wasn't even a full second...and, I know there are some of you that could match that time, but never match that price...not to say I wouldn't liked to have owned it...it was a beautiful car...so each to their own, but for the money, you get a grt car....

Re: Toasted a Crossfire SRT-6
I noticed in his signature "2nd rebuild in progress". More than likely he is driving a Sentra while the Z is being FIXED.

Re: Toasted a Crossfire SRT-6
A couple of weeks ago I was able to mix it up with a couple of Z's, and their no competition, but there was also a guy with a tuned toyota supra. His car was absurdly fast, but sounded horrible in my opinion. I wouldn't trade the SRT for anything, bang for your buck you can't beat it. But it does go to show the power of a TT engine. -Steve
