Got into it with a Jag XJR (http://www.fantasycars.com/sedans/html/xjr.html). Wasn't sure what it was when we started to play. I would get him up untill 60 mph or so then he would cruise on by. We raced like three times and the same results everytime. I was surprised that he was getting me and I asked what was in that thing and he replyed "supercharged v8". The guy was really cool, he was saying he was going to get a C and ended up with the Jag. He was asking if mine was the one with the "big Hemi" in it (I have a lip spoiler/20's so I guess he thought he was playing with a SRT-8). I told him no it was the 5.7 345 horse, he was impressed. If it would have been an SRT-8 I would have sent that cat home with it's tail between it's legs :AR15firin Considering that Jag was almost $70k I would say my "cheap" 300C faired very well.

What mods have you done? I bet if you would haev had headers, exhaust, intake, and stage 2 chip you would have faired better. It was a great story though!!!

Peace,

Only mods are custom 2.5" catback and removed the silencer. I think that I have slowed myself down since the addition on my 20" rims. I need to weigh them incomparison to the stock 18's. Haven't had any runs since I have added the 20's so I am not sure. Want to add a CAI and possibly headers in the near future.
