Ok......3 races on dry. 3 on wet. even it up some. haaaaa.
Nice numbers on the srt.
I might have to come out for this one. See some serious business going down. Have to make some calls and see if my buddies dart is still together. See if he'll let me borrow it. She's got bottle but I bet she'd hold her own with the srt.

I'll be on drag radials, if you want to keep it "fair". And make no mistake, the SRT's hardly the fastest thing around - stock suspension and IRS alone make it a poor-launching car. I wanted something I could drive every day, quiet, smog-legal etc. but which would still be very quick. Oh, and of course which would pose a problem for Mark

Not me, that's for sure. If I ran repeated 12s @ 130 I'd go quietly cut my wrists or something.
This car *is* a bit touchy on the stock run-flats, I'll say that much. Lights up both rear tires @ 65 MPH in 2nd, regular as clockwork...

Mark's setup is pretty wicked as far as power AND he'll have the traction.
My 0.02 cents, Ben.

I'll be on drag radials - they're all I have for the car, and they should be good for high 10's. If Mark can beat me at the strip, then he will have clearly earned all the kudos and bragging rights he'll get. (and THEN I'll go get some slicks )
FWIW, I've run mid-10s on these same DRs before in the yellow car.
