So my friend who has an srt-4 is moving down to florida to go to school. On his last night in town, which was 2 weeks ago, him, myself and a few other guys decide to go to the track. It is a pretty crappy day, around 95 degrees and very humid. Myself and all of my other friends are very curious to see what he runs considering he just finished modding his srt. He went from having a turbo back exhaust, to a ported stage 3. his best run of the night was a 13.9@116 with a 2.8 60ft. He could not hook up for ****. when he ran this he had a really bad tune. He was putting down 360whp and 363wtq. Now he is down in florida and he got his car tuned by a shop that i think was called Rage Technologies. He is now puttiing down 468whp and 475wtq. i am at his house visiting right now and sometime within the week he is going to the track. It seems pointless to me because he couldnt hook before, but we ll see. Any thoughts on times?

 

He needs driver mod desperately...and traction mods...and drags. 360hp for a 14 second run? Thats pathetic.

 

ha ******* fast!!!

 

he was already 1.5 seconds slower than he should have been.

Tell him to learn how to drive and quit posting supra times.

 

What track? And where in MO are you located?

 

he needs the driver mod real bad. i say he's gonna hit the wall.

 

468whp with a mopar stage 3 turbo kit? mmmmmmmmm

 

Gateway and i live in eureka

 

Where in Florida??

 

He has to be in south florida to go to rage tech, am i right??? Rage tech is know for building fast srt's around here. You got the SS down here while you are visiting????

 

more lik 2 seconds...with that power easy mid high 11's

 

He needs to stop worrying about being a damn dyno queen and get some ******* DR's or slicks. All that power he is pushing is pretty much void since he doesnt have good tires.

 

he was talking about before...when he was making 360fwhp

 

gimmie some slicks, race gas, and 360whp, i'll hit 11's.

 

i was looking more at his trap.

360whp should net an 11 pretty easily.

I make about 330-340 and my 1/8s translate out to a low 12 so that should be no problem.

 

LOL! if you have 360whp why the hell do you need race gas?

 

higher trap speed

 

Im not saying you couldnt but he is actually a very good driver. When he just had a turbo back exhaust he consistantly ran 13.8s and hit 2.1 60s frequently. The car just cant grab traction. It cant even go from anything under a 60 roll without spinning.

Yeah he lives in port st. lucie. I dont have the balt i rode down with one of my friends in his car

 

Ok, so tell every ccar in the world that makes more whp than him that they are full of **** when they hook up at a track.

he needs TIRES! and then he might be ok for a bit. But with near 500whp in a FWD he will need a LOT more suspension done to get it all down properly.

There is no excuse for not using decent tires/suspension when you get to certain power levels. the whole "there is just no traction to be had" crap is for ricers.

 

Im not saying that its an excuse im just saying its not as easy as some may think. Anyone can sit their and say "if i had that much power i could run 11's" and maybe they could, but until they do it its irrelevant.

 

I run darn close to it and i have no traction problems.

My track tires work on the track, my street tires work on the street.

 

The comment wasnt directed to you it was directed to super ss.

 

the srt driver sucks *****. I'd race him and I have over 200whp less. haha!

 

If your talking about Jesse's car, then yes, all he does is spin. we ran from a 40 and he spun the whole time on the highway. This was on his old turbo too... I was with Jake. I also raced the Blue RSX with cams.

 

^ lol, like the sig
