hey 71...there was a guy at the columbus CC event that had a stage 2 SRT, running mid 14s...

also,do you know a guy with a silver srt with the plate "PVO NEON"? he runs alot of the CC events...and hes pretty fast..high 12s.
That event was the first time I had met him as well as the others, they are all srtforums.com members. If the silver one has black AAR Cuda style stripes on the sides, then it is a Stage 1 car with some fairly neat other mods and he is running 12's, but I forgot what his best pass ever was and he has it as part of the display with his car at the shows.

Here is a picture of some of the SRT-4's at the CC in Columbus, the one at the end nearest the tent is the Stage 1 car that runs 12's and the one next to it I believe has Stage 2 with toys, it or the yellow one next to it, that could be the one your refering to. Mine of course is the black one.[sm=smiley4.gif] You know as well as I do that the car is only as good as the drivers ability to use it.

Then it is most likely the second silver SRT-4 from the tent in the picture, he has the exhaust cut off below the car and the seats out while he races, I believe. My dad will be there with his '69 Charger, it's already on the trailer and ready to go.[sm=smiley20.gif] If it weren't for work, I would probably be there as well.[sm=smiley13.gif]

I should be good for Norwalk.[sm=smiley20.gif] My dad left out for the show yesterday while I was at work, if he was leaving today I could have went.[&o]

I almost got to have fun with a modded WRX last night after work on my way to the car wash. I seen him at a red light on the road I was turning onto, in the same direction he was going, but I didn't see him until it was too late. As I was going down the road to the car wash the cars from that light came into sight in my rear veiw when I was at a red light, but when it turned green they were still a ways back. It wasn't until after I had my turn signal on to turn into the car wash and had started slowing down that I noticed a car that was behind a van or truck that was behind me, about 150 feet back, changed into the open left lane. I had a feeling that it was the WRX, but I wasn't certain and by that time I was turning into the car wash. I noticed that it was that WRX after I had pulled in and he went by. Then I heard it as it was going down the road and he got on it some, it was definately not stock, he at the very least has a really good and loud exhaust. If I would have known for certain it was him in the other lane I would have probably skipped the car wash to play. I would have to have jumped into it pretty good though, because I had slowed way down for the car wash entrance by the time he switched lanes. That would have been a damn good and fun run too.[&o] The only other problem would have been the police station that is just up the road about a 1/4 mile or so from the car wash.[:@] Oh well, maybe another day.[sm=smiley2.gif][sm=smiley4.gif]

Awww, too bad you didn't get to play with the WRX. I have two friends with them, both modded of course. One has uppipe and exhaust and usually runs 14 flat everytime (and yes, you can hear his exhaust from about a mile away). The other has uppipe, exhaust, CAI, Utec, pulley, and runs in the mid 13s most the time. So depending on what that WRX had you could of had some fun. Of course I would like to see the SRT4 toast the WRX even though I have two friends with them and I've spent many hours installing all that. But the SRT4 is the big brother to my car, so gotta stick with the family! And I forgot to say that I love the SRT4.

Yeah. I remember for the last few years your lights were way off too. When you even win an event, maybe then you have enough experience to criticise someone like your doing.

There are many reasons people don't go to the track, money, time, equipment, etc. Besides, most people don't have a mechanic that lives with them. Personally, I don't have the interest to race cars from the standpoint of time and money, and I'd have to get or borrow a helmet.

I still enjoy watching someone else destroy their car though.
