Yeah Intrepids are heavy... my buddy's family has one... not the RT... but not the base... what comes in between?? I've seen Intrepids at the track... 17 sec passes usually... stock I assume.
A 2nd gen ('98+) Intrepid SE (shitty edition) will make 17 second flat passes all day long, though I have seen 1 that was making 16.6 second passes for some unknown reason. A midline ES 3.2 will make 16.6 second passes all day long........and let's just say that an R/T doesn't go nearly that slow stock

No NOS though

...........and yes, 30+ mods does include stuff like a $250 shifter and other stuff

BTW.........I ain't racing no 12PSI Supra's either...............unless I've got 12PSI as well :tounge:

Better than a Sunfire GT ........and an '88 Aries 5-speed runs better than a Sunfire 2.2 non-ecotec 5-speed

Heh, I'm just taunting you........you can race me for slips if you wish

It's all jokes guys!

That is much better than I expected... isn't that 300M territory or are those in the 14.9 range?

.............ACTUALLY................that's faster than my car has ever ran.........quite a bit faster.

I have a couple of minor performance modifications on the go........and after they are done.......I'm HOPING for a 15.3 at about 91MPH.........but I don't know if that 15.3 is achievable with new tires, suspension and an unnamed $100 performance mod that should give me 3 or 4 tenths

Dammmmmmmn, no wonder I couldn't keep up to that Golf that raced me the one day when I wasn't ready for him

I thought.........oh well, I got a late start...........but the late start did me in!!!

I had NO IDEA that 1.8T's were THAT fast!!!!!

1.8Ts are mid-low 15s I think... only Nick's sucks... heheh j/k dude!

For some reason I thought that your Intrepid was a lot faster than 15.x ... with you offering to race every other person here for slips... I would stop if I were you...

Hey man i got some "coaching" on launching from TurboABA and the other Nick and on my first (and only) try of the new method i dropped 0.2 off my times, i'm hopping to hit a mid to high 14 this summer w/ suspension and exahust.

Footose was doing 14.4 in his old 1.8T.

Yeah Nick there is a lot of room for improvement... you will get low 15s if not better this year... it just takes a bit of practice for some people.
