some of those guys are claiming that SRT-4s "Arent all that fast". when you look in thier sig, they have a paragraph of mods. most likely, most of the run ins those guys had were stock or S1 cars. yay! you kept up with a stock turbo 4. pft.
the title of the post says it all really: Kept up with an SRT-4

"yup, until the "SRT-4 Turbo shit box" gets a stage2 or worse.... I fail to see the purpose of calling another car a "shitbox".. especially one that, stock for stock, makes GTP's it's bitch."
"i had about the same type of mods as you when i raced srt-4 and it walked me everytime."
"I third that. No reason to denegrate someone elses ride like that. For what they are, I dont think Dodge could have done a much better job on that neon, from the $19k sticker right on down the line."
"Yeah - thats just ignorant. We drive freaking land-whale family cars compared to that, so who are we to point fingers."
and so on....

I like GTP's a bunch. Although for their price they had a lack of amenities for my taste. (probably because they didnt want it competing with the Bonneville). When my parents were shopping for their Bonneville replacement, i noticed the decked out GTP still didnt have auto-climate control or a power passenger seat.
Someone needs to chime in who knows something and set me straight. I've heard the trans on a GP is rated max at 300hp, if thats so then how are these guys not melting down their transmissions on a constant basis? And if not then what kind of hp can those trans actually take safely?
I read through two pages and they seem pretty straight for the most part. A lot of them give credit to the srt-4 and I felt they (as owners of another car that they obviously care about enough to mod into the 13's) are pretty fair.
I'm surprised - the 'stang forums are a lot less realistic. Guess that is 'cause they bought cars they thought would beat us (HA!) and the GP guys know what they have from the start. I am actually impressed by the # of fast GP's there are out there. Knew they were supercharged, but they sound faster than I thought.
Some people will always talk down about someone elses car to make them feel more confident with their own vehicle. Most on that site give the srt-4 respect.
