As far as the SRT 8, I had one try to race me while we were on a role just leaving the stop light and he was already two cars back, and I heard him get on it, so by the time I got on it he was just even with me. ( Why not just get on the side and give me a fair race, unless he knew what it was), anyways he got the jump and I WOT and chirped second and caught him after he was 2 cars ahead of me and we were almost bumper to bumper, but I got him by a nose. I looked over to see if I could give him a thumbs up, or was I getting one, and he would not even look my way. Oh Well, Another one bites the dust.

As far as the rear end on the Chargers I could easily stand corrected. Maybe I heard that a posi type rear is $1700. Whatever it is a weak point.
The PT Cruiser took down my GSX! Happened a Milan dragway. I see this guy pull into the pits and paid no attention. Just thought it was some spectator. Went about my business checking air pressure etc. Did not see the PT cruiser owner getting the jack out and making his own adjustments. He pulls out race tires for the front, a couple of spare tires for the back, and opens the exhaust.
Test and tune starts. I pull up to the box and notice the PT Cruiser in the next lane and think nothing of it. Start my burnout. This is with a 462 big block, with headers, 3 inch exhaust and not much in the way of mufflers. Needless to say I could neither hear or see the little Dodge smoking the front tires in the burnout box. We stage and I cut a good light and run a 1.7x 60 ft. Fat and happy I figure the race is over. About the 1/8 mile I hear the sound of at least a million angry mosquitoes in the other lane! Soon after this little silver bread box goes flying by! The little b@$turd turns 12:0's @ 118 mph. The best my drive to the track X can do is 12.5x at 108.
To tell the truth I have more fun telling this story than those about my kills.
