here yo go. pics and vids from a local drag race meet up. cars ranged from the regular civics, sti's, evo and a lot of trucks lol. some of the nicer cars included a 9 sec GTR and a 10 Chevy SSR. the two porcshe 911 turbos that showed up got embarrassed by two civics. both races the guy in the porsche missed a gear when shifting. as for me, i went with my friend and his 94 TT Supra, we raced a Corvette: lose -- Civic: win -- Integra: win -- Evo: lose and SRT-6: win. best race was with the SRT-6, closest and most fun race of the night. all in all his best time (quarter mile) was a 14.3 not bad, cant wait to come back when i have my car and he has his single turbo kit installed.
oh and pic of a 12 sec turbo'd haundai accent

I'm surprised no one mentioned the SRT-4, I've got one with 510 WHP and 550 lbsft of torque. I walk GTR's, Vipers, Vette's, and I looove destroying all the cocky guys with their 350's that think their sh*t don't stink lol.

Well some would consider you cocky with your neon. You have a 500whp car that couldn't beat a stock 150hp 240sx around a course. They would consider your racing childish.
Street racing takes no skill, but is still fun as hell.
It's kind of like those hondas that beat lambos it's cute but at the end of the day everyone knows which car is better. You can always make a car faster, but you can't change FWD and balancing.
The neon is a beast but come on lol.
I like srt4. Neon or caliber?
14 sec srt6??? Bull. Unless he had sc probs or had his tranny in winter mode. Yes srt6 have a winter and summer trany settings.This had to be standard xf not a srt6 esp if he is gonna tyrbo. Srt6 is supercharged while a standard xf is na
Looking at vid it appears to be na xf but I never get a clear look
Edit# does appear to be a srt6(not perfect id but possible) and if his best was 14sec then he has problems. Either sc or trany.

it was an SRT-6 i checked myself after the race. well the driver was a young kid around my age, so iono if he new how to drive the car or if it was his first time racing.
It does appear to be proper color and proper fixed wing(na xf has a folding wing) so it prob is a srt6. You cant mess up too bad racing it, its a freakin automatic.
can, i know its a beast after mods and not super fast before but its a 12.9 or 13 sec car STOCK(which is pretty quick btw). plain and simple, if his best time was 14.3(which means his other races where worse) he was having a issues. wether it be, he was in winter mode(prob was) or having supercharger issues(possible as there is a cheap part that is known to have issues around 20k miles sadly, easy to replace) he was having issues plain and simple. he should have been much quicker even if he was 100% stock and in true automatic mode(and not auto manuel mode, which i doubt). there is no arguing that. He was having issues
