Default wow

the srt6 has an AMG 330 hp 310 torque supercharged v6 engine weighing mid 3,000 lbs, i really think the car should be a little bit quicker...quicker as in be able to really beat a bmw 335, subaru sti, evo 9, bmw m3, etc...not cool man, i know you guys think the srt6 is a rocket when you launch it, but try racing a stock srt6 against lets say a stock m3 or 335, those cars are almost dead even with us...but they have less power and weigh above 4,000 lbs.

I don't know I have never raced a 335, but the M3 Old gen, did not hang with me at all.. and if he didn't I would be surprised if the 335 would...

they get an advantage at the line but a couple miles up, the AWD becomes a disadvantage...

either way none of the cars mentioned (stock) can compete... I will have to see it to belive it...

killed '05 m3... my car is an '05 and it's stock... the new m3 i know it's quicker... as for a stock sti, don't bet on it, just add a needswings intake and any stock, m3, sti, evos, even a 2004 and older corvette will see your beautiful rear end when needed.

Why should it be quicker? Rated crank HP engine is a rated crank HP engine.. Driver, tires, vehicle condition, etc.. all come into play for vehicle speed after that.

BTW - The SRT engine is rated at 349 HP by MB/AMG; not 330 HP as advertised by Chrysler. That's been verified. Add an intake, pulley & tune and you can add +70 HP to that.

I got into a tangle with a STI and EVO who were going at each other from a both rolling 55 MPH jump and a stop light. Smoked em' both and that was when I was stock.

I always keep an eye out for some BMW action.

AMG 330 hp 310 torque supercharged v6 engine weighing mid 3,000 lbs,

mid 3000 lbs?... what about 3015 coupe and 3140 roadster, you must be pretty heavy at 17 to bring it to mid 3000 lbs... watch this and learn about drivetrain loss on AWD: 400bhp= <300whp
http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fu...eoID=21452 251

I don't wanna come around as being an a.s.s. or flame people... but do you even know why you made the above statement and started a thread?... Do you even drive an srt-6?... you think a 335 is faster?... or an sti... wow... <---- that's a real wow
Mod that sti to a 12 second car and you will be probably one car length ahead in the 1/4 with my extra heavy stock "chrysler"

Thats cool that you want to come trolling around with your 21 post and all but dont be a D0uche about it. This is a clear case of reaction time, driver and conditions. Your big wow crap is exactly that crap those cars he mentioned are all very close in comparison. Could we have the edge sure maybe sometimes. But dont come clowning on here like you know everything, calling people out asking if they own an SRT6, and posting soap opera videos from myspace. Now that, thats out of the way here is a video of and STI and C32 and here forum kill stories regardless of if the C32 won or if its a little bit heavier they are all close wins. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=krg2xygCDRA

You can tell me all day long that this crossfire is a 12 second car and on a good day yes it is but results all day long on dragtimes.com put this car right at the 13 mark give and take.

A 3200-3300 lb srt6 with 330 crank hp running 13.00's flat is pretty damn quick. The 300hp 335 which has been said to be underrated and the 333hp E46 M3 both weigh 3400-3500 lbs and are a little slower than our cars(mid to low 13's)

The math adds up properly to me.

Sorry for NOT posting useless information or start stupid threads about how slow the crossfire is just to have lots of posts... I don't care about my post count. It doesn't make me smarter, but reading through this board sometimes does...
Never said the corssfire is a 12 second car stock... gotta admit though... it's damn close.
As I said before, I don't wanna come around as an a.s.s. or call people out for no good reason, but can you explain why we have a thread on this board named "WOW" posted by someone talking out of their a.s.s. ?... o wait i remember, we only care about post counts that's right... the more POSTS the more HP kids!!!

Its not about post counts, If reading through this board sometimes makes you smarter then let it be. His post are like most post on here, they are posted to open discussion and to create such an argument. Hell a week ago I posted don't mess with the GTR. Does that mean anyone thinks this car compares to the GTR no it opened it up for comments on anything from how fast it was to how it looks. IF you don't want to look like an a$$ do a little research back up your points and then be open to what others have to say about it. I have done my fair share bitching about useless threads or even multiple threads on the same topic. This is clearly not the case.

Are you reading reviews or driving it? I have both an SRT-6 and Evo. As much as I love the Evo, and as fast as it is, the SRT-6 is a little quicker 0 to 60 and 1/4 mile. I think I could do better times with the Evo on most road courses, but that's a different issue. The SRT-6 also seems to be a little faster than my friend's 2003 C5 as well, and that one is rated +20hp and +65 ft-lbs, 6 speed and slightly less weight. This is a fast little car.

FYI - My SRT weighed in around 3400lbs with half tank of fuel on certified scales. I weigh around 180.

For the record - the 335 is KNOWN to have a lot more power than it is advertised as. I'm not sure about the M3 or EVO, but all of these cars are pretty close when you weigh all of the factors.

Regardless of which car wins, they are all 'rockets' in my book. Stock low LOW 13sec and high 12sec cars are quick regardless of which brand they are.

What are you feeding that thing . With out me in it mine weighed in at 3,070 with about a half tank of gas and when it still had the resonator. I done a search because I knew I had posted it on here somewhere and Woody from the UK said his was 3,08x with a full tank on the thread I found.

I figured I'd get a "everthing is bigger in Texas" . I think I also had read that HDDP's weighed in @ 2,990 before he gutted it down to 2,4xx, but his & Woody's were not SRT's.

I'm not a SRT owner, but I have driven one and was very impressed with it. As far as I'm concerned, the biggest thing that keeps the SRT6 out of the 12's right off the show room floor is the ridiculously high gear ratio.
Thanks to Mercedes Benz obsession with Autobahn speeds, we wind up with a 3.07:1 differential in the SRT and 3.27:1 in the NA cars.
Something more like a 3.54:1 or even a 3.73:1 "posi" would really wake both cars up. (Not that I think a car capable of low 13's bone stock needs to be woke up) But I'd gladly give up my 150 mph top end for something more realistic like 120, and be capable of running low 14's. Or in the SRT's case, the 12's.

I ran my car with only SL55 intake/K&N drop ins as a mod and turned a 12.85@109 spinning off the line with a 2.0 60' at 2100 feet above sea level. Also the car weighed in at 3350lbs with me, 1/2 tank of gas and a sub/box and amp in the back. You're telling me that I'm supposed to be disappointed in that? A buddy of mine has a E46 M3 and was at the same track the same night and couldn't even break into the 13's!!!!

I almost went to the track on Wednesday night...but it was too hot (hahaha, how ya like that!?!?! TOO HOT IN FEBRUARY! Enjoy that snowstorm )

It was about 85* and 90% humidity with a slight chance of showers...so I decided not to.

I may head out next wednesday if the cold front gets it down into the 50's.

If I do, I'll re-check the weight.
