Maybe after I've spent a few thousand, I'll be ready to take one on. I'd do it now because I am confident on my skills. Knowing how to load up the torque converter and keeping the tires from spinning - I can beat most drivers.

Equal to equal, I will lose right now.

American cars are made for off the line acceleration and the SRT8 has it in spades.

Yup...... The LH (?) platform in general kind of falls on it's face when it comes to handling. The SRT8 cars do go like stink in a straight line...
