FF2MOE,

Excellent job with the fire fighting. You guys (and gals) kept it from becoming an utter catastrophe. I'm in a townhouse complex and at that time our association president, who is a fire fighter and had a home in my complex, was on the Scripps fire when he heard that the complex was being evacuated. Horrible feeling to be saving someone's home while thinking that your own could be burning down. We were lucky - the fire came within a few hundred yards but the winds died down and so did the flames.

Please let us know what you have in mind for a meet.

Msheredy,

We really should move this post to the regional section.

PS - Just noticed the times that others have posted. Methinks some have internet access at work...

The most practical impractical SRT of the bunch. I also thought the Magnum had the best weight distribution at the SRTTE I attended. And to cap everything, tonight going home from work there was a red SRT Magnum several cars in front of me. Of course I was taking the drive home nice and easy else I'd be reporting on the red SRT Magnum behind me.

Also it's true, the Magnum SRT8 would be behind you after he takes the off-ramp, loops back on the freeway and passes you AGAIN.

No doubt the SRT-8s accelerate through the 1/4 mile faster and quicker than a 6. They also brake several feet shorter and I suspect top out around 5 - 10 mph faster (assuming the rev limiter was disabled in the 6). It's kind of embarrassing when Chrysler's "halo" and "premier" sports car is out performed by a group of family cars. But then that's the beauty of the 8s - you don't suspect that they are capable of that kind of performance. Well, at least I get better gas mileage.

I think the performance of the 8 vs the 6 in terms of straight line acceleration is almost identical, however I still prefer the 6 for driving around the track. I do like the 8 for longer trips. (my buddy has an 8 wagon- nice for long hauls).
