Excuse me?! That sure as heck was NOT ME IN THAT VIDEO! I dunno who it was, probably someone who can't drive. My point, is that I want to see his stock SRT put 5 cars on my stock SS, that's all I was saying. I got news, if it was my car in the video, it would've been a different outcome.

You actually made a good point, that I've always agreed on. Where it matters is the track. That's why I can't understand why everyone is so bent out of shape about my numbers.

Yeah, ok. If you read my other thread, the car was dyno'd at Stiegemeiers. They are well known in the cobra world for porting blowers. The proper business way to fudge numbers, would be for him to make mine look low, tell me to buy one of his ported blowers, then make them high. Duh.

race 2. we went from a 40, I let him punch it first and as he got the jump he couldnt keep up with my constant TQ. I instantly pulled on him and by the end of 3rd gear I had about 3 to 4 cars on him. OH BOY!
race 3 was exactly the same outcome but I took him by a little more because I punched it at the same time he did. I feel soo happy right now, the intense kit completely woke up my car and I was starting to feel my car slow, about a couple of weeks ago I raced an srt when I didnt have my kit and he took me.
The guy didnt want to tell me his mods, he said he was only stg 1, however I know for sure he had exhaust since his car was suuuuper loud and I could even hear the turbo spool really really loud. and he had a BOV too.
yeah, congratulate me plz!
to drunk to read anything.........theres no way u beat an srt4 they are the best cas in thw world they are so fast the can suck ***** while they spool no offfense but just bitter when in 2005 i said i beat an srt4 and everyone said BS!!!!!!!!!! go neon ......ludircris speed GO!

Yup, Stiegmemeirs is a very respectable shop and is well known in Ford circle. I've dyno'ed couple of my cars there and their dyno numbers are compatible with few other dyno shops in St. Charles county area.

I don't think a stock SRT-4 could pull 4 to 6 car lengths on a stock SS. I think some people just over estimate car-lengths. Or maybe I underestimate car lengths.

How many car lengths would all say this is (Btw, my car is in the far lane):

Well, considering you're not stock, it doesn't matter.

Thank you. When are you going to bring that Z06 back to Gateway? I'd like to see it run again.

I was there last Saturday. Made couple of pretty good passes with street radials, 11.96@118.9 and 11.99@118.7. I should be at GIR on this Tuesday evening.

Yea, I was guessing around 8 as well.

Stock or not isn't the issue. Just trying to get an idea on everyone's judgment about what a "car-length" is.


If the picture above shows 8 carlengths then there is NO WAY a stock SRT-4 is going to pull 4 or 5 car lengths on a stock SS. To do so would mean that a Stock SRT-4 would be running mid-high 12's, at least.

Here's the vid that picture was taken from. Note the difference in ET's and that I had ~8 car lengths on him at the end. And IIRC, our reaction times were pretty close:
