Of course they all swear the SRT is really a 12-second car, but because of the magazines conspiracy against Dodge, they won't print it. So when you ask them for video of bone-stock SRTs running 12s, they just make more excuses. |
i will agree with ya on the fact that some guys think mags are out to get mopar. completely rediculous if you ask me! i think its due to the fact that people are achieving better times than what the mags are posting in the real world. not everyone, but the better drivers. so of course us challenger guys will take offense to that because their rating us last place.
i'm sure people in the real world are posting better times with their SS than the magazine as well, but its not being brought up as conspiracy because the mags are still sayin the SS is the top dog, which it rightfully is at this time(aside from the GT500, but i'm talking in its class). same goes for the mustang, better drivers will post better times than the mags...not sayin your wrong 1bad65, just look at it from a challenger owner's perspective. almost every mag puttin us down, posting horrid 1/4mi and 0-60 times when in turn a lot of guys that know what they are doing are besting the mag times with both the R/T and SRT. i'm not sayin its faster than the SS by any means, so please, nobody take this as a trouble starting post. is more them vs. the mags i guess you could say.
we all know some take it to that other level where they can get out of hand with why "the mags are out to get us mopar guys" just as you said.
and after thinking about it, i dont have video to post to back up my post, so i guess im gonna be lumped into "one of those conspiracy guys"
