I've seen some fast HEMI's at the track. I wouldn't underestimate a 5.7 hemi because one in a magnum smoked me and took off like a rocket. The 99-03 mustang GT that beat me just simply walked away but nowhere near as fast as the hemi. This was all AT THE TRACK with my Z24 lol.

What??? Dude look up some time slips for the SRT'S fella, your not going to see hardly any GTO's taking the SRTs LOL.... I've looked, I thought about the GOAT and def. changed my mind...
And to the guy that thinks an LS1 can hang with an SRT your even crazier, unless it's in the C5 LOL...
an LS2 GOAT can just barely hang with an SRT... SRT pulls way harder and has more consistent times... Isn't that why we have the LS3 now? Duh...
Those are called hood to fender stripes... I don't care for them much either... It's funny
Muscle Master and myself seem to have the same opinions and were Dodge guys, honestly I don't think either one of us is giving a bogus opinion about our brands either...
On that note let the flaming begin, I guess...
wrong.


last time i was at the track GTO's went 9-0 against 5 chally SRT's, 3 Charger SRTS and a Jeep SRT

Try the same thing with this pair's predecessors of 1970 or so and you'll find yourself in a bit of a wrestling match. Ain't progress wonderful? Maybe yes, and maybe sometimes it's fun to wrestle."

Nah I was talking about the LS2... Go to timeslips. com and look it up for yourself...
I found an SRT Charger running 12.87 STOCK. And the best LS2 GTO time I found was 13.0 STOCK...
So look for yourself... I've seen videos of GTO's beating SRT Challenger's too LOL but the guy in the Challenger didn't get off the line for crap and still almost caught the Goat it was 13.1 for the Goat and 13.4 for the SRT but like I said the guy couldn't even launch his car... So believe what you want I mean it still has something to do with the driver each time... The car's dont just launch themselves...
