Beat by a SRT/4, It was so close though

I was on the way back from the range last night when this red Dodge Neon SRT/4 with a huge wing and fart cans blow by me like I was standing still. So I hammer the accelerator and catch up with him at the next light. The car has a huge tach on the dash and all the guages on the piller so I figure this is going to be a good race. I am on his passenger side and I look over at him and he looks over at me and smiles, we both know what will happen next. The light changes and I shift into first and beat him off the line with little problem, I shift to second and I notice he is pulling on me by the time, I hit third we are door to door and he pulls on me by about a half a car length. I hit fourth, but was still a half a car behind and could not surpass him. So he has me beat. I shut it down and slow to the next light. We had transversed about a half a mile or so before I acknowledge my defeat and slow it down. I pull up next to him at the next light and I start to roll down my window to congratulet him on a good race and for beating me fairly. When he rolls his down and yells over to me "That's right you just got beat by a four cylinder homee" I was like WTF!! What an ass this guy is so I just roll my window back up and ignore him. The light changes and he tears away from the light like he wanted to race again. I just let him go and not waste my gas.

Why are some people such asses...

Anyway it was a fair race and I was beat by a faster car and maybe a better driver as well... Just don't be an ass about it you know. I mean when I beat someone I don't make any negative remarks about how I slaughtered you in the race.. I just don't get ricers...

Nice death...I almost made the mistake of racing an SRT-4 right after they came out. I thought it was a body kitted neon until I pulled up behind it (BTW I drive a 93 Corolla with IHE).

And are you sure it wasn't just the stock exhaust? I'm not much of a Dodge guy, but I thought the SRT-4's didn't have mufflers. I could be wrong though...

Well It did have two exhaust pipes sticking out from under the rear bumber and it sounded like every other fart can exhaust... With a unmistakable sound of the Turbo...

How fast are these cars anyway... Seems like they are quite respectable on the street and I would guess the track as well...

The factory exhaust on the Srt-4 is loud. They don't have mufflers just 2 resinators. The Factory exhaust is also duel exhaust. I know pretty ricey huh. Out of the box the Srt-4's are fast. if it was an 03 stock it has 215 hp and 240 lb/tq. (04/05 is 15 more hp and 10 more lb/tq along with LSD). Bone stock the srt-4 will run low 14s all day long at the track. If your god of launching a FWD car you'll run high 13s. Mopar has a bunch of power adders for the Srt-4, stage 1 240hp, stage 2 260hp, stage 3 350 hp. Quite respectable times. But, alot of the people that have Srt-4's think they are the fastest cars on the planet. (including me sometimes until i get beat ) (had a nice run in with a viper but i will tell you about his buslengths later.)

Re: Beat by a SRT/4, It was so close though

well it depends on what stage you get. Stage 1 is like a mid 14 second, stage 2 is a high 13 second.

Not quite my man, All though it really depends on the track, i Have seen vids of Srt-4s on tracks 5400Ft above sea level running low 15s high 14s. Sea level or a lil above bone stock you'll run low 14s. Stage 3 with a few toys your looken to conquer 12s.

so I'm assuming this is a 93 MUSTANG GT? Or Probe? Anyways, get some gears, and blow his ass outta the water.

Re: Beat by a SRT/4, It was so close though

I have raced a modded srt before. not quite sure which stage but I know it was modified.

He pulled pretty good off the bat but I caught back up in 4th and was reelin him in but had to shut it down it was getting too fast for a non highway race.

What mods do the stage's consist of?
