I just wanted to let you all know that my buddy Kevin beat the Hell out of a SRT-4 Tonite at Race Legal at Quaalcom Stadium. He drives a 2005 Tafetta White Si. He has added JAckson Racing Race headers, New motor mount bushings, and a Greddy Evo 2 Exhaust.

ok kill but try and run that against the SRT4 w/stage 3 set up and he will get smoked

Bad driver. No comparison SRT 4 would own with equal drivers.

but look at the character of someone willing to drive a turbo neon! Not exactly "winners" by society's standards. More like ricer rednecks!

It was his first time of actually racing and with an N/A car that is a pretty decent kill. Doesn't matter who the driver was, he still won.

Srt4 driver must have stalled..

With those mods, car probably ran high 14 to low 15.

no way that si could hang with an srt-4. that srt-4 has almost 100 more hp, unless the driver is a lil kid, there is no way!

or like s2000man said to me before "maybe he forgot his engine" joking aside car vs car hell no! driver vs driver..............drivers race!

its not a drivers race, no matter how a hate the srts, a new si with headers and exhaust will still be no match for an srt-4 til the si is forced inducted.

^what he said, (here).

*or if the si went all out N/A

aparently you guy's don't know much about racing at qualcom.
1) it's only 1/8 mile
2) fwd cars can kiss their times goodbye.
3) you launch on this plastic pad thing. a 2.3 60' on street tires is considered really good for a fwd car.
4) RT could play a big role there. their tree criss crosses as it drops. confuses alot of first timers. (happened to me even on my first time)

thats why I asked what time his friend ran. my best time ever there on streets was 9.2 @ 77 mph. irwindale I run 8.9's @ 80mph same setup. it's very possible for srt's to hit high 9's at qualcom and even 10's with a noob driver. putting it well in range of an SI. mainly cause they can't get off the line or catch traction down the track.

so yeah, I think it's possible. I just wanna know the times of the SI to see just how bad the srt was doin.

I've driven an SRT-4, they aren't THAT fast and it has a lot of turbo lag until about 25-2700rpms... I think that a slightly modded SI could win. Good stuff.

i hate drag strips.
real racing is in the curves.

edit: before anyone says it, i know professional drag racing takes lots of talent and i'm not taking away from that. just not my cup o' tea.
