i chat extensively with that SRT4's owner and i will say that from personal experience the SRT4 spools very quickly thus it seemed like he took the jump which wasnt the case. The WRX seemed like it was about to pull cause the srt4 owner nearly missed 5th so thats y it appeared that way. If you all also note...they started at 40mph (2nd gear roll for SRT4) and the WRX let off 125-130ish as SRT was already hitting 130-135mph. See SRT4 sees 4th gear until 140mph (6200rpm) and he wasnt even ready for the shift yet but he did anyhow just for shits and giggles:o. So i will say that for a bone stock car i have mad respect for the SRT. I dont want one nor do i wish to drive one....once my Turbo Dumpster is done i'd like to see what WRXs or SRTs comes my way and leave with their tails between their legs .

dayam! 2.4 liters and a 16G turbo (ieven though it's TD04H) equals fast. Who's BPU? Never heard of it. Was that around here? I haven't seen ANY srt-4's on W. Hillsb.

There are 3 Black SRT4s in Tampa (Lutz, Westchase and Sefner)
1 Red in Zepherhills and a Yellow one in Eastlake that i know of. But they are around in South FL more so than here mainly because thats where they were launched first
