Well Me And My 85 Went To The Drag Again Lastnight. This Was Our Third Time And I'm Getting A Little Better At Hooking Up. Still Spins Quite A Bit Tho. Made 5 Passes At The Cost Of Two Alternator Belts But, If You Have Read My Posts Thats Not Near As Bad As Usual. My Best Time Was 14.24 @ 97.32 Miles An Hour. My Second Best Time Was 14.61 @ 98.34 Miles An Hour. The Best Part About The Second Run Was Another Dodge Lost It's Pride. Smoked An SRT-4. On The Jump I Started to Spin So I Eased Up A Bit Then Nailed It Again And The Lakewoods Proved They Are Worth Their Money. The Back Squatted And We Was Gone. The SRT-4's Time Was 14.66 @ 102 Miles Per Hour. It Was Close But, Close Only Counts In Horseshoes And Handgrenades. It Took The Sting Out Of The Hemi Eating My Lunch In An Earlier Run. I Recently Installed A Tunnel Ram And It Seems To Be Giving Me More Torque Than The Dual Plane High Rise. I'm Still Running The Stock Rearend And Street Tires Tho. Trying To Save Up For A Spool And Slicks. I Believe My Times Will Improve Considerably. Will Be Posting Some Vids Of The Runs. In The Mean Time Here's A Photo Of My Lunch. Drag Racing Rules.

Nice run, just wait till you get some slicks man, youll kick some real ass then, lol hey i just looked at the picture of that SRT-4 what a fake a$$ it looks like a SXT with srt4 badging, no hood scoop or spoiler, i think the SRT-4's are stock at around 13.5 or something so im pretty sure that dude is a fake.

Thanks And Nope ... Didn't Have A Spoiler But, You Can't Tell By The Photo It Had Some Sort Of Hood Induction. What Ever It Was It Turned Pretty Good Times To Be A Four Banger. I Felt Lost In The Past, I Didn't Even Know What A SRT-4 Was Till I Looked It Up On The Internet This Morning. Well Never The Less He Was A Tasty Snack. I'm Looking Into An Electric Water Pump And I'm Gonna Do Away With My Belt And Pulleys. This Throwing Belts And Running Hot Crap Is For The Birds. Sick

FWD burnouts are gay, I agree. That's why I also own another car that would eat your lunch that's RWD. I will include my sig pic this time. It's what a real car looks like. The SRT is my sleeper car. And if you don't believe it, PM 89/383stroker from this forum, it ate his car like it was standing still.

STANMAN
05-24-2006, 03:00 AM
And with a good driver, stock SRT's can hit 13's. Launching a FWD perfomance car isn't easy, however, that's why you see some horrible 1/4 mile times out of SRT's. Any moron can launch a Mustang/Camaro 1/2 way decent. I give props to anyone who can launch an SRT well, it takes actual skill. And the more HP you add, the harder it becomes. I can't launch mine all that well, but with 430ish to the wheels, it doesn't take me long to catch up!

It's probably just as "embaressing" as having to change your door hinges every year because your door weighs 500 pounds and should be registered in 2 counties.

You know what's real "embaressing" though?? Loosing to a Neon, which is what your car would be doing. Badly I am guessing.

I don't have to brag, I have the cred to back it up. If I drove a 14.3 second car (cough, cough) I SURELY woundn't be bragging about it.

And it's "have it" not "got it". English owns you.

those times for the srt-4 that you ate are really bad . when i was stock i ran 14.2's consistantly. stock 04/05 srt-4's run 13.9's . the 03's run 14.0's. next time you see that guy tell him he needs to learn how to drag race.

Ummm, yeah. I am a supervisor at a Tier 1 Automotive supplier. I make my own cash. Enough of it that I don't HAVE to do my own work. I could if I so chose, I am mechanically inclined, and as a matter of fact I just put an alternator in my one of my friends S-10's last weekend as a favor. I have owned, fixed up, and sold a 71 Challenger and a 73 Duster, both with 340's in my younger days. Now I would rather pay someone else to do it, if that makes me a snob, so be it. I now get to pick and choose what I want to do, and what I don't.

And it looks like you do your own work, which is unfortunate for your car. Do you cut your own mullet to???

And when I beat 89/383stroker, I was still on the stock turbo (307HP, 365torque). The new set-up hasn't been dynoed or fine tuned, but when my builder took it to the track to break the slicks in, it ran:

60'-2.0
1/4-11.89
MPH-123

It's OK James, I wouldn't mind getting walked by a 69 Roadrunner. Not one bit!!!! I owned a 71 Challenger and a 73 Duster, both with 340's, both with A-833's, what great cars!!!!! I should have never gotten rid of the Challenger!!!

I know what you mean, I have owned Challengers, Cuda's, Coronet R/T's, Chargers and Dusters that I wish I had back!
BTW, I wasn't calling you out, just letting folks know that there are other members here with fast street cars.

i love how ppl always fall back on that line...... it's still a neon.
what is that supposed to mean anyway?
yes it is a neon , it was a neon before the race and after, so whats your point ?

STANMAN
05-29-2006, 04:35 PM
No, the way I usually see it is it's a Neon BEFORE the race, and magically transforms to an "SRT-4" AFTER the race and they loose.

i personally dont care what cars any of you have. if you have old muscle cars i will respect you. if you show off a dodge neon even if it gets .5 second quarter mile, your still are showing off a dodge neon. this topic was about a dodge neon not your mustang or anything else you own.

Style and grace in a mid-80's rust bucket with at least 2 different colors?? THAT'S STYLE??? Then again the mullet is still high fashion to you, so I guess I should have known. And if you ever got a chance to see an SRT-4 from the front or the side, you may like them. To bad all you ever see is the back of them, if you catch my drift.

nice purple intake there. i'll just repeat what my middle son said the other day "dad is that what they call a gaymaro?" i practically had to pull over and stop to keep from laughing myself into a wreck. listen i don't care what anyone drives if they have put money and time into it to make it fast and it is fast then i give respect to it and them . the way you keep coming up with ways to bash neons makes me think you are jealous of them. stfu already !

That much is very obvious. Anyone who did would NEVER be caught DEAD in that thing you call a car. See, I gotta give 89/383stroker props. I have seen his car. It has it's faults (interior needs work), it has it's good things (both of my cars can beat it), but at least he can hold his head high when he drives it because it doesn't look like he went to a junkyard and pulled out in the first car that would start. Sick, does you car have tinted windows?? I think that's the only way I would drive it, just so no-one could see me, lol!!!

Man, do you have issues. You start a thread that is bashing a Neon SRT-4, which it wasn't, but you make a big deal out of it so you must have thought you accomplished something. Therefore you did care how fast the Neon was, since you were happy to beat it, meanwhile, anyone with a clue looks at your times and knows low 14's ain't gonna cut it with a SRT-4 Neon.
Then, after your bragging, when somebody with a real SRT-4 tells you what would have happened you tell them that "People That Really Got It Don't Have To Brag Nor Defend Themselves".
You need to learn more before you get your arse kicked.
If I were you I would start asking questions or buy some performance books and learn something before I went bashing on turbo 4 bangers. One of these guys might take your lunch money if you don't watch out, and I'm not talking about an 11 second turbo car, I mean a bone stock SRT-4 would kick your cars butt right now.
I can see you've wasted a bunch of cash on your car, I had a 1987 Camaro that I put a 350 in that I built for less than $1500 with a small hydraulic cam, a turbo 350 with a 3000 stall converter, and I put 4.56 gears in it with no posi and it ran 12.80's wearing Hoosier Quick Times.
The engine had stock 993 heads, 9.8:1 compression, a 280/480/230@50 cam, weiand stealth intake, holley 600 vacuum carb, and 1&5/8" headers.

So STFU and get to work private. P.S. thanks for posting that sillyass pic of your engine, it is going to be well used on other forums!
