12a NA vs SRT4=
Murder. Yeah I just got plain killed. Didn't even hear the turbo coming (my exhaust toned it out). Maybe if I had a header instead of my stocker I would have stood a chance?! Yeah right! I was driving home when a SRT4 rolled up beside me and pinned it. I didn't a chance, and I knew it, but i didn't really care. It was good fun for me and will be a good story for the other driver to tell. Although I wouldn't be bragging to friends about beating an stock port NA 12a in my SRT4. I do have a holley setup, direct fire ignition (2gcdfis), all emissions removed and straight 2.25" exhaust back to a magnaflow... But I am still running the stock header (not like it would have mattered anyhow!). Just though I would share.

Nice death. I ran one a while back when I had my N/A FC, right after I watched him wax a Mustang GT, and I got him off the line. But once he hit about the middle of his 1st gear, it was over!!!

Heh when I had my 12A FB and I raced people on the freeway, I did it where it was nice and curvy and not straight-shots, going 90-100 along the barrier wall, those pussies would wimp out and slow down. =P

But yeah I see people weaving full throttle in and out of heavy traffic and that just pisses me off. Its one thing to risk my own life stupidly for some fun but I won't introduce the possibility of me risking anyone elses.
