I think it is safe to say that I am most likely the first to race against someone on the SRT. 
On my way to work today, I saw a 2gen Eclipse GS-T (FWD). I heard his HKS SSBOV (blow off valve for you turbo newbies)go off. He also had a FMIC (Front mount intercooler).
He punched it when he was behind me and then as he passed me I punched it. He only managed to get 2 car lenghts ahead of me . We hit traffic afterwards so I do not know if I would have caught up to him or not. I still find it hard to beleive that he did not pull hard on me. He was an older guy and looked like he knew how to drive the car. Maybe he did not have the boost turned up? He had also 2 gauges on his piller and I noticed a stock catback on.
Just to let you guys know, the SRT only weights 1750(rounded off) lbs!!! So 300hp on my srt will blow away my supra if it was stock. Supra weights about 3400lbs.
