The auto transmission blows, 2nd gear would last from 30mph-70 with OD off.

haha, seriously, the exhaust just makes more noise, still not going anywhere Only time my car has felt faster than it is, is when I autox it. There HP doesn't matter nearly as much as driver ability and tires/suspension.

I'm a lucky guy, my girlfriend knows that she can't do anything to prevent me from racing. However, I coose not to race with her in the car. I would like to take her on the autocross course one time though.

Same here bro. I slammed 2nd gear and lit up the tires once with my wife in the car. She was about to have a cow.. Geez, I told her, I could've slammed 3rd gear after that but I didn't.

Oh, and as far as jumping on the chargers around here... Not a good idea.

That's the new HP car and most are unmarked.. If I see a Charger, red flags go up no matter who's driving it.
