took a lil trip down to the bronx on wed night and when i was coming home up 95 north around 1am a dodge caliber srt-4 had caught up to me. it looked stock plus a mopar sticker on the rear window. 2 younger gentlemen in teh cockpit.

we did 4 60-100+ runs
the first one i took off from 4th...he quickly pulled on me
second from 3rd gear...even over 100 and hit traffic
third from 3rd gear...pulled on him to about a car length almost to the
top of 4th gear...garmin said max 129
fourth race...once again pulled on him to half a car length and then shut it down due to traffic

we hit a construction zone and it gave us a chance to chat
gave the thumbs up and asked if he was stock...
he said yah its stock and he has had it for 2 months...said he took it to the track and ran a 14.0
he said i had him and then asked about my car...told him i was stage 2 with a catback...he asked if i ran it at the track and i said yah when it was stock 14.8
he said oh yah you should be good for the 13s now...

in any event those calibers have huge potential...i would like to see one of them against the new turbo cobalts that are coming out...

btw i never broke the speed limit and street racing is for losers and always keep racing to the track...

 

haha I thought it said that you're Garmin had a max of 128.............

You say you never streetrace yet you just posted about you're street race....

 

damn the srt4 calibers are out already?

 

You weren't street racing yet you were in traffic? You weren't speeding yet three 60-100mph rolls? I don't know anywhere in the world that has 100mph speed limits!

 

it's been pointed out but it's that hilarious it needs to be rubbed in:

You called everyone that street races a loser............yet that's exactly what this was.

You claimed to never have broken the speed limit..............yet I don't know anywhere in NY that has a 129mph speed limit.

My feelings aren't hurt, I just feel that if you're going to try and insult someone........don't be a hypocrite, i street race and take the flack that comes with it, but I admit it and I don't deny it when someone asks, and I don't pretend to be perfect on here. Don't try and gain the respect of people on here by lying........ESPECIALLY when you friggin' admit your hypocricy loud and clear -- who's the loser?

 

i think he was being sarcastic about the street racing and speeding...

 

This is gonna be funny. . . (grabs popcorn)

 

xxx2

 

Pretty sure the OP was kidding about the street racing thing too

 

i saw one driving on the Sprain Parkway in Valhalla today, i wish he woulda came beside me, i woulda gave him a nice run for what hes got

 

umm apparently you don't drive in NY, speed limit is however fast you can go without weaving through traffic lol. try driving 55 here, you'll get your ass run over

 

that was my freinds srt4 its black with red sticks little white guy drivin .. he runs 14.0 he surprised me

 

Then no one understood sarcasm haha.

Good kill(?). I've been wondering how those Caliber SRT4's would compare to a Stage 2

 

HAHAHA so true....I normally drive like a grandma but everytime I take a trip to ny I have to step my game up.....I have actually gone 65mph in manhatten (bad idea)...LIE forget it...

 

my friend has a kinda bone stock 06 sti..just has an full 3" turbo back exhaust,and he raced a caliber off a 40roll..he said he jumped on it like crazy and kept pullin till 120 and shut down...said he had about 2-3 cars on it...he does know how to drive his car...got a 1.680 60' on his sti with all season tires,and ran an 12.7

 

Well the new srt4's are only really 14 flat maybe high 13's with good driver....and trap 100...I believe sti's trap higher than 100...more like 104-105 stock and higher with tbe

 

he did trap 106mph,were i trapped 107 on my cobalt at the same track...but i ran a 13.6 vs his 12.7

 

yeah driving in NY sucks, especially in the city, u can barely do 40. matter a fact 30, up in the suburbs here, u can get to maybe 65 without getting a ticket lol

 

That is a really bad speed to race at though. The car dogs in third. now if you did a 40 or 50 mph roll and dumped it into 2nd, you'd of taken him.

 

lol... which is why I don't drive in NY, it's not like I'm far away.... I just enjoy my sanity, you guys are NUTS

 

i believe the new caliber str4s are rated at 260 whp_ thatrs what i though i heartd

 

Low 280's to the crank is a bit more accurate, although I hear mumblings of WHP being in the 260's range, underrated maybe?

 

yes that was him...nice guys...thing surprised me also but there are alot of neons that surprise me even more...

 

Your a Complete Moron. Youtotally just contradicted your self in the means of Streeet Rcing. Wow, Buddy.. Keep up your story telling

 

Your sarcasm detector must need some new batteries.
