Default Beat an SRT-8....WTF?!

Went to Midnight Drags as usual and there was a stock JGC SRT-8 that showed up and of course I couldn't resist to line up with him and see where I stood...lets just say that I was EXTREMELY surprised by the out come. I'm AWD and my mods are PCM IAT break-out harness, muffler delete, Spectre drop-in filter, and TR6 plugs.

Time Slip


DRIVER MOD FTMFW!!!!

The kid was maybe 17 or 18 and probably his dad's SRT. This was his one and only pass then he left. Of course I know he's faster but I crossed the line first so winning is winning in my book and this made my night...just sayin'!

Maybe I'm an idiot, but doesn't it say your 1/4 time is 15.272 and his is 14.761?

In bad air. Low 14s is more typical and they will run high 13's in decent air.

There is a 2 second difference depending on air.

You crossed the stripe first but his ET and MPH were faster. So not really a win if you are going against the clock. As stated the clock starts when you trip the lights.
