sweeeeeeet... glad to hear it... I have always been surprized, that this four cylinder motor has better top end than most cars... I would have figured the opposite, but if you go to top speed with nearly any other car, the srt will pull!!!

congrats, I bet that was a blast...

Nice, I was wondering how the srt stacked up. I test drove a goat (rode kinda like an f body) and was only going to buy from one of the "big 3". I usually don't find any racing on the streets, hondas with big tachs usually know better... I went to dodge for a new dakota since the last one (96) treated me so well, wanted to drive some fun cars before I bought a truck. Never did get a ride in that new dakota.... I passed on an 04 blue mach 1 with 1700mi. for $21,000 to get something more "practical", I already have a mustang anyway, my 66 stang is currently using all of my mod money.

Noce one. Doesn't sound like the GTO is as bad as GM would like you to believe.

Great kill![sm=icon_rock.gif]

The GTO is and isn't a bad ***. The '04's tested by Motor Trend did the exact same 0-60 MPH (5.3 sec.), 1/4 mile (13.9) and top end (over 150 MPH) as the '04 SRT-4 they tested. However, the newer '05 GTO has an additional 50 horsepower over the '04 GTO, so that would have made for a different outcome.[sm=bangbang.gif]
