To put this guy's claims in perspective, here's a guy who runs an SRT-4 on the tracks:
http://www.dsmtalk.com/forums/showthread.p...?threadid=89786
The SRT he ran was consistent in the 15's and messed-up once and stayed in the 16's.
Disclaimer: in the SRT-4 forums, there's a guy claiming to have run a best of 13.9 bone stock. There is even a guy in the DSM forum that witnessed a 13.9 run from the SRT. I also know that most SRTs are mid/low 14-second cars stock.
But to beat those cars that would make an S2000 earn its money on a consistent basis...
...my assumption is that these cars' drivers underestimated the SRT and by the time they realized that it was quicker than they expected, couldn't make up what ground they lost.

Oh man as much as I hate to admit it, that car can't beat most of those cars...
Here we go again another dreaming racer. 215-220whp on a FWD with no LSD with only an air filter can be tied or win if the other drivers sux and he is a monster launcher, but Law of Probability says it's not going to happen...Oh no I talked bad about the SRT-4...
