'cause it's a good one! How many have you killed. We'd probably run out of bandwidth

Got called out by a guy I know with a G37 4 door a few days back... informed me my car was 'old' and behind the times now and that V6's with better gearing and more TQ than ever are the way of the future... Well I think possible as in Back To The Future as by 88Mph his race was already over... Still he kept trying... all the way to 110... at which point I presumed he had let off as my lead was so bad... nope... ricer flyby proudly done after that! Soooo I just smiled and headed home. Now today he informs me that he was 'just entering his power curve' and that by 150 I would have been toast. 150?? Is he kidding? lol... I informed him 1) Public Highway = no 150 for me anymore 2) When I was stupid and gave it a shot in Kentucky at 3am without a car insight for a 100 miles I hit 160 and pulling as fierce as it did to 100 and that his 'power curve' end's where mine begins... lol. Smack talk I know but hey... all in fun... besides... I know that is need be, my 'old' girl would put that 'shiny new well geared high TQ V6' thingy... to shame!

One or two, along the way, Bob . . .

Actually, I went to the track today for some lapping - my last for this year, as I am off to England on October 2nd and track closes at the end of October.

There were a lot of cars there and - no rain - for a change. They were running the cars in 2 groups - Novice and Advanced. The small advanced group had 3 M3's, some 911's, including 2 GT3's, 2 Vettes, a Lotus Evora, a Caymen, a Boxster, an STi., some track Stangs . . .

I saw a new Camaro there but he was running in the Novice Group so I wasn't on the track with him.

Quite a few drivers from out of town who didn't know my car. The Lotus pilot made a comment to me as we were lining up for the first of 3 20 minute sessions - to the effect that I was in the wrong group . . .

My first kill, on the second lap, was the Evora

Took out a couple of 911's including one GT3. Another GT3 lapped me. Passed one of the M3's; got the Caymen and the Boxster, one Vette - and, of course the Stangs (but I don't count them anymore).

All in all a nice afternoon. Until near the end of the last session - that is.

I was barrelling down the long straight called Rocky Road at about 130 mph (we get up to 145 at the end before the downhill right turn), when the power cut off and the dash lights lit up.

This cannot be good. I pulled off the racing line and parked on the grass; ran through the guages - everything seemed ok. Except the fuel guage. It was on dead empty.

I had made a rookie mistake, and forgot to fuel up after 2 sessions. First hit of the ignition - starter whirred - the 6.1 turned - but didn't start.
Fired up on second try.

Slow drive back to the pits - where the track guys fixed me up with a couple of gallons of 94.

All in all a fun afternoon lapping with some great guys - and we repped the SRT8 some more.

^ sounds like that 5.7 is working very nice. The Toona really does nice work.

I figured I would add to the forum with a question related to the content of this thread...
With my 300C..LMI Intake.. 3" Corsa cat back exhaust.. 91 octane tune... What can I expect for a.. Challenge? As some know.. This is my first MOPAR.
I have had small block chevy's to the big block Olds rockets. I knew what to expect with those but not so much this car.
Will these cars beat a 5.0 mustang?
I do understand that I have not done anything to the "hardware" of the car so I shouldn't expect much.
I was just curious what to expect from these MOPAR cars.
