What do you all think about my friends Super Bee out running my Marauder. His is stock.
I ran one in my marauder when it was stock. It beat me by a few cars. You should take him.
What do I think?. I want a 392SRT in pitch black. Can't do the superbee, no heated cup holders or moonroof=deal breaker. Seriously that 6.4 is the motor from hell. Well actually the 2015 blown 6.2 is. I love that car but it's gonna take work to get our MMs to match 470hp especially being 1 gear short. I wanna see my man Doom run one.

I hope you are not talking about the SRT-6.4 L HEMI. It makes at the flywheel 470hp and 470ft lbs of Torque, If you have sticky rubber and your reaction time is better than his I think you will win, however if you are deficient in any of these, I predict a loss for you. I ran an SRT8 "C" with my "Trilogized" MM and it was always a close call either way.I had 11lbs boost 431hp/416tq at the rear wheels. Good Luck. I hope you race at the track as street racing is somewhat frowned upon at this site. PM me your results.

' HA' 'HA' / Well DOOM, Fast Nino, and Nate Hawk have had no trouble with SRT's Super Bee's M5's and Zo6''s All of these Trillogised cars are in the 500 Horsepower Club . Seeing is believing..:burnout: Mopar adds have their horsey power over rated ..At the rear wheels its a different story.,also their powertrain parts come from Mercedes and pre 08's have had reliability issues, The stock Hemi's you cant boost over 10.5 psi [ small % can though] because of weak rods and pistons .early front ends are weak also . Im not bashin the car but if you go used ,go 2008 up..[ my future choice ] .

That is true the members you listed have amazing cars but just think what kind of cars Motown and cwright can out run with 761 hp and Chris I think will be close to that after his motor is put in . They can keep up or beat I am sure vipers , tuned cobras , High-end Mercedes .:flamer: and some of us with stock marauders lol

I took a Viper CTS from 5 to 30 before we both had to hard brake this summer with my measly ride. You need to shoot much higher for Chris and Roger! LOL

First I would only run him at the strip. No street racing for me.
I drove one yesterday and I do agree they do have some power. I drove my Marauder over to the dealer and they went nuts over it. When I opened the hood there mouths dropped. One older sale man had never heard of a Marauder.
They sure wanted me to trade it in for the Super Bee. I said I do not think so.
With some new gears and headers and a updated tune it should be a good race.

Agreed, those guys have made super muscle cars out of their rides and I would need to save up a lot more dough to get my MM up to par. I wouldn't even consider a used previous generation because the 11'+ RT and 12'+ SRT are a completely different car all the way around. The interiors are amazing!!! The Charger is the primary car of my department and since I been driving HEMI cars for 12 hours every day since July they have truly grown on me. Only complaint is the visibility and horrible front end components on the old generations keeping the 06-10s at the shop. My take home is a 2010 with 70k and is a solid car. I want a newer body for my next daily driver so I can stop abusing my MM and finally put that work in. Just hit 158k.

Sometimes it really annoys me when people have no freakin idea of what our cars are. The Marauder came out at the end of 2002 and its almost 2015 and folks still ask me what year my CROWN VIC is and what kind of chrome wheels are those :mad2: Ford did a great job advertising these cars lol.
The superbee is just to spartan for my liking interior wise. Doesn't even have leather or moonroof :eek: for the $$$ compared to a loaded SXT with u-connect.
A nice current 392SRT should fit the bill next year after the hellcat comes out and depreciation sets in and it'll be time to go shopping :banana2:

Will I guess I made my friend mad because he was hopping that I would trade my Marauder in on a Super Bee. I told him not going to happen.

Every stop light race is a drivers race. The cars are nearly meaningless.
