rx8 vs 300c hemi
 
which would win in a 1 mile drag race? the 300c is just the 5.7 hemi, not the srt8. the rx8 is the mt, and the 300c is automatic. my friend keeps talkin smack about his dad's car sayin he can beat my rx8 so im just wonderin if i should take him up on his challenge or if i will get beat.

thanks.

it doesn't matter if you win by an inch or a mile...winning is winning

Ask any racer, any real racer...

i've seen the way you drive, you have a heavy foot, you'll blow yourself to pieces.

who the hell cares?

1) Its a Chrystler
2) Its just a car made to look like a bentley for poor ass people who want to think they are "Ballin"
3) It's a Chrystler

It's not how you stand by your car, it's how you race your car.

lone_wolf025 11-15-2006 09:48 PM

I'm no expert by any means here but I'd say in a full mile it'll come down to raw HP and weight. 3,766 curb weight w/340 HP and 390 ft lb vs say 238 HP and 160 ft lbs at 3,045 lbs? You might lose but you might beat him in the quarter at least. Course if it were just the 3.5 you'd smoke him in a heartbeat.

tiltmode43 11-15-2006 09:53 PM

How 'bout you race him for that sweet little ass?

dillsrotary 11-15-2006 09:54 PM

StewyRX8 11-15-2006 09:54 PM

I didn't know pizza places made motors.

Im_DANomite 11-15-2006 09:57 PM

StewyRX8 11-15-2006 10:01 PM

Come on, man. Guns, murderers and crooked cops? I was made for this, bro.

tiltmode43 11-15-2006 10:15 PM

Thats funny. One of the things we knowz is, its not how you stand by your car, its how you race your car. You better learn that.

enough for me :D

The rx8 would win in the mile run because the 300c is speed governed.

StewyRX8 11-15-2006 10:17 PM

I live my life a quarter mile at a time. Nothing else matters: not the mortgage, not the store, not my team and all their bullshit. For those ten seconds or less, I'm free.

Rotary Rasp 11-15-2006 10:26 PM

more like 20 seconds for rx8 owners :)

StewyRX8 11-15-2006 10:28 PM

Take it upstairs Einstien! You can't detail a car with the cover on. Can't even get that right

HCTR154 11-15-2006 10:29 PM

Don't know if you will win that race. I had to wring the crap out of my 8 today to stay close to a Nissan Maxima!
