    Ok today was a pretty nice day out so you know the locals have their toys out. There is an abundance of chargers in my area mostly due to the local charger club boasting I believe 150+ members.

    Most of the cars are mainly modded appearance wise but there are a few that are modded engine wise. Luckily, I ran into an appearance modded charger lol.

    Cruising through the city I run into a a younger kid maybe 21ish in a Daytona charger r/t. We meet up at the light (pretty dead on this side of town so no traffic, i don't condone street racing but under the right circumstances i might bite) and he revs the engine (they sound awesome in my opinion) so I looked over and laughed. He replied "does that "sh!t run?" I said "only one way I find out ". He laughed and said "dog (guessing he likes randy Jackson) it's a Grand Prix, I'm sure it's slow."

    So l proceeded To look forward and ready my foot for this awesome race (lol). Light changes, roll off throttle and smash it.


    He spinned horribly, amazingly I didn't (I've been practicing every now and again) once he finally caught traction it was already over.

    We meet at the next light and I look over and smile and tell "it's just a Grand Prix right?" He says "you got lucky" and pulls off running the red light and getting a flash camera ticket (extra burn) lol.

    That's my kill for the year lol

    Then go by truck rules.

    Simply put.. I can win a lot of races in my truck. Recently I won a race against a friends G8 GT. Yes he has a 6.0L vs my 5.3L yes his is newer and has almost no miles. I won based on him starting out behind me. He tried to pass, I occupied that lane as well. Being unwilling to wreck.. I won by default.

    Winning is winning... That day was mine. I'm pretty sure he'd be prepped to duck the other side if I pulled that again.

    If this was actually on a track my assumption would be a charger would be a good .5 second ahead.

    Charger's are porky.

    In stock form, figure a first generation R/T will probably only run mid to low 14's stock.

    AWD's are even slower.

    SRT's though...they run pretty good.

    Yea it was changing lanes JayRoc.

    Most of the chargers in the area are modded engine wise so they are easy to pick on unless you find a srt or srt8 one. Then you have small problem lol.

    Good kill bro, i have lots of Charger guys over here that are always cocky with crappy 22 inch rim piece of sh!t chargers. I like the new ones but those older ones and the way people around here mod them, saws one that said SRT8, had the cut out for the other muffler but there was no muffler there and still had the 3.5L badge on the sides. And lol at the guy running the red light, that just proves he was wrong and slower.

    The only charger that is good is the SRT8, challengers are meh, and the SRT8 Chrysler 300c are baddass. Charger R/T, rather get me the GP GXP and mess up the Tranny over and over and have fun in a Pontiac than that crap charger.

    Well better looking IMO, and i believe the 300c SRT8 is as fast as the Challenger SRT8.

    Would you expect the FWD, crappy tranny, Grocery getter to be as good as the Charger R/T
