300c

"That thing got a Hemi???"

Was heading out to dinner last night. Perfect night out, so my girl and I took the T/A out. Weren't going far...maybe 3-4 miles to Outback.

As I was heading south on a local 4 lane street, I see a decent looking black car behind me. Now, I really don't follow Mopars new line-up all that much, so I wasn't sure what it was at first. I knew it was either the 300 or the Magnum.
There is plenty of traffic, and this guy is driving a little like an ass. I think he was trying to show off or he actually wanted to race. Not sure, doesn't matter.
We passed each other a couple times and I got to notice the temp. tags on it. Brand new. Owner felt as though he needed to prove he bought a fast car I guess. Boy did he ever pick the wrong F-Body. :p
So, we get to about a 1/4 mile before my turn off for dinner and we caught a red light. I was stuck behind him. Light goes green.....


He chirps the tires so I know he is going for it. Since he was on it, it freed up a lane for me. But not before having to short shift 1st. Shifted around 4000 while RIGHT on his ass.
Hit second as I was switching lanes. Sent the rear swinging out a little. :naughty:
Walked by him. By walked, I mean blasted. :iceslolan
Then proceeded to make my turn.

I wish I would have had more room to really get this guy. I hate cocky drivers like that.

Poor guy never knew what he was asking for.

lous if you put one scratch on that car...its over lol...nice good to know someone is having fun....my t.a still being glued back together..

nice kill, what have been nice to see you embarrass him like that. :D

well id say he picked on the wron fbody.... lol sounds like you did a nice job of putting him into his place.

It was over so quickly...

I need to find some actual competition. That 2002 Z06 was a car behind after 1st gear so we both backed off. Maybe a Z06 on a 100 shot. :lol:
Or the new Z06. That would be a TON of fun!!!

You actually found a car slower than yours lol. I hope the stig doesnt kill me for ruining his fun:uhoh:. Anyways nice kill, i definately wouldnt want to mess with your car:nono:

Id usually say cruel and unusual punishment but this time i commend the power of the flaming chicken.

Nice run, for a hybrid.

what kind of upgrades did u do to the hybrid part of the car? like upgraded Nhim battery, better coil, what....

Good kill. Some of those mopar guys that own the 300C/Charger/Magnum can be somewhat rude. I think those commercials made them feel that entitled.

I'm not at all surprised by the outcome.

Now Luos, after that 12 bolt rearend you are putting in, mayhaps I can convince you to buy some nitrous :D

I thought he was on the bottle.....anyways I feel sorry for that guy he never stood a chance...too bad so sad..

No he has a 402 iron block w/heads/cam, and full bolt ons. He's got alot of naturally aspirated power, but will have alot more power if he opts for the nitrous, which will actually make up for atmospheric conditions Luos (Meaning your high altitude).

this whole time I thought he was squeezing....hmmmm ok....well since he does have a n/a set up it wouldnt be that much more work to set him up for the bottle.....I would have went the FI route but thats just me....

Nice run!! I had a run in with a 300C SRT-8 a few weeks ago while I was driving the GT-S around. He only pulled 2 cars on me. I was disappointed considering it has a 250+hp advantage. Those cars are pigs.

luos, did you break 16's yet?

No. :sunglasse
Hybrid > Hemi


And on the nitrous thing. While I know this motor would LOVE it, it just isn't my thing.
All the power is N/A. No adder of any sort other than the stroker.
Just think....a 12 bolt and slicks should already propel this car into the upper 10's pretty easily. Now I just need to get it there. :icon16:

I'm not even going to congratulate you anymore. I just want to hear about you losing someday soon...it would be more exciting to hear about you lose than win nowadays...

:evillol:

All he has to do to lose is forget to plug his car in at night... being a hybrid and all.

It's like that damn Energizer bunny, it keeps winning and winning and winning...


One day, I'm gonna smash that bunny too...

Oh? Are you the Duracell to his Energizer?

Actually I'm that cheap-little-no-named-bastard you can find at the dollar store that can do all the same and more. :biggrin:

Oh, you're those kind that when you buy them new, they last about... 10 minutes then poop out... You know, the kind that are manufactured in a country with about thirty letters in it's name and only three vowels... and you can't pronounce it, even if you're drunk.

That would be me...all the same and more...

Besides, what can you expect for being only a dollar? Yeah, I'm the funnest and cheapest 10 minutes that you can afford...

I'd buy that for a dollar!!!:rofl:

:lol:

you can pronounce anything when drunk...

I've got a guy right now telling everyone around town he wants a piece of my truck for $500 in his 300c with a 50 shot. It's on 20s so it must be pretty fast!!!! He thinks he's the shit because he barely beat the local SRT10 that spun through pretty much every gear with the 22s/low pro combo.
Hope he enjoys giving me that money. :grinyes:

you might almost be able to get him in the camaro... much less the truck :banghead:

:evillol:
Black 2001 Z06 with a 150 shot got me by .5 seconds. :banghead:
Quite a bit better trap though.
My 115.4 to his 119.6.

when did this happen?

i like your kill too, sound like my kinda doing, putting them in there place

i tend not to race much unless its for pure embarrassing

or unless its something in my caliber....wich must suck for you

Hard to find a good race.....

That run with the Z06 was at the track May 10th.
His best that day was a 11.8 at 119.
Mine was a 12.6 at 115.4.
We got lined up once, but neither of us had a good run.

I've heard/read that nitrous makes up for atmospheric conditions Luos, which is why I suggested for you to run it on your car. Essentially my understanding is that you will be running what you would at sea level with nitrous, irregardless of the altitude. Dunno if it is entirely true though.

It isn't.

It helps, but nothing completely makes up for the lack of air.
I would be catching up basicly. At least to what it should run at sea level.
That is what a 75 shot would do for me.
Then...if I were to run at sea level with the shot, I would be that much faster.

I am just not a nitrous fan.
Seriously...how many N/A cars can run 11's with a DA of 7500???? Because that is my goal.

doesnt nitrous bring your engine life down a lot though even if you have forged internals?

If you've got the car setup to run nitrous, not really... it'll burn it efficiently.


Just the same that properly tuned Turbocharged or SUpercharged motor runs.

Depends on tune.
If mine was tuned for the bottle....it wouldn't hurt unless I decided to run something crazy.
My motor could easily take a 300 progressive shot. :lol:

:uhoh:

holy fuck

The power I make now is nothing.
I had this motor built to withstand insane numbers. Lunati rates the rods to 750 HP. Which is under-rated.

Lower compression AFR heads (72cc with .055 gaskets) and 15 PSI would be nice. :grinyes: :grinyes: :grinyes:

But for now...I will have to settle for the hybrid.

i really dun like those 300c drivers. they think they are so uber...=( id show them if my car was faster bahh...at least i dun drive a boat :D

mr luos, are you sticking all motor till you get to 11's, or for good?

Probably for quite some time.
11's are just a drive away. Get off this mountain and I am there. :lol:

Next big mod has to be the 12 bolt. That and slicks should get me into the 11's at Bandimere pretty easily...I hope.

Get some ET Streets, do a brake stand, and dump the clutch at 6K rpms. This is provided that you have the 12 bolt of course. I guarantee you'll be in the 1.7 and below range. Dunno how to aid you if your car lifts though.

Hell...I shift at 6,000. :lol:

I am guessing my best launch point will be around 5200 RPM's. But I won't know that for a while.
