i raced my buddies mazda 3 like i said i was in a previous post. i got him by 1 car length. then i raced a mustang gt (late 90's) got him by 1 car length. then i raced a charger srt8 (holy sh1t)!!!! lets just say there was no need to finish that race to see how humiliated i would have been lol but ya they are fast as fu(k. those things are pretty tight. i think by the end of summer i will have my turbo in and then might be able to hang w/ those but am still not sure yet.

blah, Mazda 3's are trash... but the mazdaspeed's are very quick.

Early 90's stang's are dogs. heavy and underpowered. They are easily/cheaply modded to be beasts but near stock they are lucky to run 14's. This from a huge Stang fan(you wouldnt even be able to read my liscence plate if we raced... no joke) but they arent too quick, especially AUTO's.

SRT8 Chargers... cant believe you tried, haha. Things are mean!

we've got 2 cop cars up here that are Chargers and they are intimidating, cop said he was going 155 no problem one night in it haha (we asked him)

and even a turbocharged Civic vs. a Charger, idk man....good luck! And congrats on the other wins

more to winning a race than a turbo... things like gearing, suspension, etc play a huge role.

SRT8 Chargers run high 12's/low 13's I believe... damn fast from teh factory. Even the standard V8's run 13's easy... stock. Funniest thing is that for them to look good they need 22"+ wheels and that usually brings them back in the high13/low14 second range, lol. That much weight at the wheel is a huge factor.
