Welcome back and it was good to put a 'Mouth to the Name' 
at English Town JDM day, but keep yer head low at high sun cos the reflection of yer shinney bonce is blinding.
I knew you would be back with a Lightning.
To everyone one else there I am wandering around on Friday meeting people and putting names to faces and faces to trucks, looking out for the big guy that's pissed everyone off, then I bump into lil ole Rob - bless him
And we gotta keep these newbies in their place too @$%#@*&%$

The "L" is like a drug (pardon the pun Rob...LMAO), once you have experienced the affects of it flowing through your veins you are addicted for life. Gator has his beast dialed in so best of luck to you. Baby steps Rob baby steps. Welcome back! Love the L too!

Too many names to name so I'll say it like this, I missed ALL of YOU too : (
BUT I'M BACK, WOO HOO !!!
YA WHAT HE SAID !!!
Hell ya it did, "Bro I LOVE that SRT8"
ask V about it I let him take it out for quite a ride ; o )
Personally I'll be the first to say it's just too dam much money, the payments are killing me, but as for the performance, IT'S AWESOME.
No I havent raced mine yet, but their on a rail. Any day, any temp, any driver and you grrrnty 13.3 - 13.4 (some run 2's)
The problem is the aftermarket peeps ARE INSANE
Example:
HEMI SUPERCHARGING SYSTEMS
HMI-20004S Chrysler 300C 5.7 Hemi, Satin $ 12,448.00
HMI-20004P Chrysler 300C 5.7 Hemi, Polished $ 13,897.00
HMI-20008S Chrysler 300C SRT-8 6.1 Hemi, Satin $ 13,248.00
HMI-20008P Chrysler 300C SRT-8 6.1 Hemi, Polished $ 14,697.00
Cant wait to see how much the SRT8 Jeep kit will be : o ()
Or this from hennessey
505 HP Engine Upgrade. Available for all 2006 SRT8 vehicles: Limited edition, only 50 units will be built for the 2006 model year. Improves 1/4 mile performance by 7 tenths & 7 mph! Cost: $9,995.
ARE THEY CRAZY
So for now it stays stock and makes quite the little family vehicle
Ya what he said, Please DO NOT try and see the logic, hehehe...
Agreed, and Thanks Mat
It ran a 12.1 @ 110 (I believe on the OLD chip and tune)
Ed had a problem with the Chip, it was cutting out on him last year at JDM day, that HAS been corrected and it now has a X Cal 2 and new tunes, including a Race tune that has never been tried. THATS GOING TO CHANGE
; o )
Your all Great People and I've made life long friends here if it means living in a trailer up in the cold mountains (eating cat food OR SOMETHING) so be it...
Not the 420/420 SRT8, not even the Procharged Kick *** 12 sec GT could give me the feeling I had with Blacky, BUT last Saturday going sideways in the new Lightning HAS BROUGHT IT BACK.......
WOO HOO THANKS EVERYONE
BUT I'M BACK, WOO HOO !!!

Its hard to follow the logic behind all this. Maybe the smoke will clear (smoking bandito) but did the SRT not live up to your expectations???????

Goodluck with the truck!
