Racing Stories .... anybody ??

[PR300C]

Has anybody posted any racing story with the 300C, or cars that you have embarassed on the street that you may have experienced ..

Love to hear them ... !

[dodgeatheart]

Heh, I embarrassed a 5spd (6spd?) Z28 - the older style with the sunken headlights - with my Hemi....Durango.

Yeah, I was surprised, but after the second time, she (yeah, SHE!) amazingly starting driving very slow and quit weaving in and out of traffic.

I think you 300C guys will find that the power this Hemi has at higher speeds is phenomenal!

The 300C (and Magnum) aer amazing at high speeds. This is one of those cars that can still pack a punch over 85-95 mph. And doing it all, very quietly. Too bad the U.S. spec model is governed at 128.

I've just about every car that has pulled up on the side of me and gave me that look. That look means your car ain't $hit, so with that said I have had to SHOW many cars the power of the HEMI. I think the funniest one yet was a guy in a 300 Base didn't want to do it but I remind you he pulled up on me. The story pretty much goes the same for al of the cars that have foolishly tested me. I turn the ESP off put the car in the 2nd autostick gear, the light changes, my tires make a lot of noise, I look back in the mirror, car seems to still be at the light. I'm then on the next block. Thanks Chrysler.

You're a hero.....
Hemi vs a 2.7L and you won? Who would have guessed?

Shame on you for 'beating' your fellow LX cousin! :twisted:

Hey...if they wanna race...ya gotta SHOW 'em up. No matter who! I'm sure half the people just wanna see him get on it anyway.

[Quick_nick]

thats like saying if a child wants to fight in the heavy weights its ok to beat the sh$t out of him. should of told him to grow up and race when he gets a car worthy of contest. Then again maybe he just wanted to see how bad he would lose and if he should of put up the extra cash to be one of the big boys of the road.

Hello, Capitalcity R/T that wasn't a Challenge to me was it, because if it is you can't be serious. I mean a 3.8L 3800 Series III Supercharged V6 SFI with Electronic Throttle Control (260 HP [149.2 kW] @ 5200 rpm, 280 lb-ft [310.5 N-m] @ 4000rpm) is pretty good, but 5.7L 340 hp V8 is even better. I don't think your GTP Comp G wants any problems with my Regal GS, let alone the 300C. The only pontiac that I think would give me any type of problem would be the new GTO, but who wants that it looks like a Sunfire. Don't take it personal, i'm not trying to be mean or anything. :D I just like talking crap online, but if you are in Chicago any time soon, look me up, I know some really good pieces of land were we can settle this. :twisted:

I ran a Subaru STI the other day and there was no contest. I came up on a Lancer yesterday but the driver was more interested in McDonalds than running against the 300C.

Unless your GS is heavily modded, I don't know what the problem is. At last count, the GS (a very nice car I might add), had 240 hp stock vs. the 260 the 04 GTPs own. Therefore, you are 20 HP shy and with some minor mods, you'll catch up. Provided I do equal modifications, I will still be up the 20 horses. The car is stll to new to horse around with it but in due time, the $65 pulley and the CAI will make the car very respectable.

DCs rating of the 300C is 0-60 @6.3sec. The GTP Comp G with the 3.29 rear end is GM rated at 6.5 secs. Pretty close in my books. Top speed on the 300c, 126..GTP Comp G ...142mph. Stock vs. stock, pretty close in my books. And at $5000.00 CDN less, I can do many mods for that money. But stock, the cars are close.

I like the 300C, the Regal GS and the Comp G. I may have opted for the 300C but 1) The car wasn't available wehen I needed it 2) Being FROM Ottawa, Canada, I was very concerned about the RWD 18" wheel combo. The Regal was my pick in 2k1, but the dealer wanted too much money so I opted for the Trep R/T. And the Regal, unfortunately, it a goner at the end of this year so that left me with the Comp G.

We are ALL in good company.

indycoder,

GTP's of all years have been running against the STIs. I guess they don't know how to shift/clutch very well.
