Jhonda has a little shameless behaviour in the past
SRT4 vs Focus svt

Well I went to lowes motor speedway yesterday for the hyperfest. And there were a few cars including c5 Vett, subaru rs, intergra gsr??, civic ex, and a srt-4 with boost controler, 3in exhaust. (a few more cars also) well I was behind the srt-4 from the start and was still on his *** at the end (20mins later) He had me on the back straight away but I always caught him in the turns. He once past the civic and I got caught up in some slow traffic...he got about 30 car lenghts on me and by the next lap I caught him again. Now the only place you could pass someone was on the back stretch and in mid feild about a 1/8th a mile...needless to say he had much more power than me so I never could. But is anyone gets to do a hyperdrive You will have the time of you life.
I found out what my car is made for, and its not the 1/4mile its for the track. Is anyone going to V.I.R. in late november.
