The turbo SRT-8 you are talking about is from Hennessey performance, it's pushing 600 hp and has a price tag of around 35K over the initial sticker.

Yep, that's right, it's one amazing machine that's for sure.

I ran this older guy a while back from a light and a roll....

From the light it was just suicide, if I remember correctly he pretty much a bus lenght on me by the time I was at the top of 2end gear.

From the roll (30mph + 3 honks) however, my car dipped down to first gear, and the SRT beat me by about 3 cars or so.

He did give me a thumbs up for the roll, considering how bad I lost from the light hehe. I'd like to race him again with my dads C55 AMG.

but yeah i've been in a magnum R/T .. it has 340hp.. and it's as quick as a 350z. an non-modified TL has no chance against even an R/T.. so the SRT is wayyyyyyy out of the question.

Of course the TL would perform much better on the track. but those hemi engines can really haul ass

check this out. the hennessey srt8 does 0-60 in 3.7 sec @ 600hp. thats insane. it can keep up with ferraris and lambos. i would love to have this monster machine. btw the video is pretty cheezy but at the bottom of the video it says 3.7.

I'm pretty sure he's got a 1st Gen CL with all of those mods.
