Tuned SHO as fast as SRT8?

Not at a 4000' track.  Probably Milan?

Sorry I am confused. A 1/4 Mile is 1320' Yes is was Milan but a 1/4 Mile is a 1/4 Mile. Is Milan not a full 1/4 mile? 4000' is almost 3/4 of a mile.

just a sop thought on this as have both a sho & an r/t challenger. my untuned sho with dp's & md cai wins the 1/8 easily after that the tuned challenger comes on fast, probably dead even.  so a tuned sho, which mine will be soon, should beat an r/t easily & be able hang in there with an srt. as long as the srt isn't moded or tuned. will know in a couple month when mine is tuned & my bud gets his r/t scatpack shaker. sound is no comparison r/t with magnaflow's is sweet, sho w/borla nice but still a v6.

The 12.4 SHO at Milan on Saturday was SHONuUP. 

Yes, it's a 1/4 track.  I was referring to the guy posting about Bandimere.

4000' is the track elevation at Bandimere, PM?

The one time I ran my car I did 12.8 on 1/4; I watched Challenger 392 line up few runs later and he couldn't get off the line to save his rear--ended up running 14.9 in the 1/4.

I raced a Challenger SRT he asked for it! He was revvin me at a green light I took him up to 80mph then backed off it was a 45mph zone. I had the AC running no effort, too easy. Those cars have a lot HP stock harder to launch.

I seen a tune only SHO do 12.42 last weekend.

Paul, the 4000' is elevation. It weighs heavily on the DA (density altitude), which effects your times quite a bit.

We were blessed with a great DA at Milan on Saturday when we went. Ranged from 110 to 650. Compared to the 1400-1500 DA I faced all 3 times last year.

I feel for you guys stuck in those horrible DA situations.

Ran into a 6.1L Challenger SRT8 on the interstate this last weekend and got a couple runs in...first one was from 50-110ish and I put 2 cars on him easy..2nd run was 65-115 and put about 2 1/2 cars on him. At first I thought it was maybe just an R/T but he did the ricer flyby on the 2nd run and the SRT8 badge was on the trunk lid. Didn't seem right to me, I expected him to pull me from a roll.. either he needs the driver mod I think or maybe I just have a factory freak for just the mods I have lol!

Just out ran a Chrysler 300 srt last night also...on freeway from 80 roll (lol...roll).

I think we seriously underestimate our SHOs. This weekend I was dead even with a z06 from 65-120. Perhaps he didn't down shift two gear but his exhaust was-a-blazin' and my GF was a b*&chin'. Only I could time the pull at the exact time she choose to sip her green tea. --- granted... she should have known better.

HAHAHAHA, at least your GF understands... kinda.... I get harped on for doing that all the time. Her reasoning is "you drive a 4-door grandpa car... its not supposed to be this fast...."
