I was running at the same time ast the srt-4, so I didn't really hear his times. All I know is I was almost 3 seconds faster than him on our 1st runs. The srt-4 was completely stock... in fact it was pretty much brand new... still lots of tread on the Dodge equivalent of the re-92's. I talked with the owner briefly... he told me torque steer is *not* an issue even w/o a LSD, since the drive shafts are equal length. He also told me the stock tires are crap. And said the only thing keeping the srt-4 from being a total class killer is the fact it's FWD. Up close and in person, the srt-4 is impressive looking. Cool motor w/ the FMIC, decent looking body... but the interior is still too much like a Dodge econ box
, they coulda done better there.
And AAX is all about the big, child eating Vettes. Those car look out of place at events like Cal Expo... too small of a course. But in Atwater, those things are at home.... they are simply amazing to watch as they friggen FLY around that giant course.
