Yea so I don't know what type of response I'm going to get but I'll post anyways.

Driving on the way to get my brothers STi inspected the other day (crazy hailstorm little while ago, $15,000 in damages) and driving onto the highway in my friends M5 and a girl in a Charger rolls up. Driving really aggressively and cutting people off. We're at the light just before getting onto the highway and my friend (in my brothers car) is lined up with the Charger. Kinda wants to teach her a lesson. Guns it off the line, I stay a little farther back and let them proceed. I'm about 100 ft behind and then I decide to give it a go. Caught up to the Charger (friend slowed down) and whizzed past her (she did not slow down) doing close to 200 km/h. (REMINDER: THIS WAS ON A HIGHWAY. MINIMAL TRAFFIC.) Slowed down once I passed her and let her go on her way.

Hopefully I don't get flamed. Just figured I'd tell you guys a little story.

Enjoy!

as long as you did not put anyone life in danger and there was not much actual traffic on the highway.. Tiz all good... I gun my m5 every once in a while on the highway when its like almost empty, no harm in doing that... If you do screw up... You're only gonna screw up urself...
plus Those fat bulky American Boxes on Wheels can't match no German Beasts like an M5... Race an Italian Stallion next time

SRT/8 = lol

This is my buddy Romaine in his modded M6 raping a SRT/8 jeep that was supercharged and it also had all the boltons: headers, throttle bodies, pulley, exhaust, etc. I love this video.

Okay how about this, from a roll the SRT's have no chance!

Here's me against a Predator tuned SRT8 Jeep running headers and on full race gas!
