What?? Ummmmmm, anybody else want to agree with a 5.0 TPI having more potential than a GN 3.8 turbo engine?

Kowboy your car is bad ***. I hope to add one more bad *** third gen in youtube vids once mine is done, since they are far and few between.

Yeah, me too. My SRT4 was quick as heck, but when I got my first IROC, I was hooked on the rear wheel drive and the sound of the V-8, not to mention the power possibilities with it.

I sometimes miss my lil Dodge, though, but not a whole lot. I had to buy new front tires every three weeks or so.
