Stock Evo8 RS vs. 400+hp srt4

So me and a couple buddies go up to this little town called Zelienople for the Flashlight Drags. So anway, he has a stock evo8 RS and it was his first time racing it. He raced this black srt4 which is said to dyno at 427hp and 424ft/lbs torque (http://poorboyzmotorsports.com/butch.htm) It seemed like he didn't lose that badly for it being his first time, missing 2nd gear (don't know how), and the srt4 having so much sh*t put into it. Think the srt4 guy couldn't drive well? I don't know much about either of these cars that's why I'm asking. Here's a link to the race video. It's at 1:58 into the video. http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...31557382443766

Like Evo_Girlie said, those neons are fast from a roll. He probablt had the 50 trim on it. Seems to be the popular turbo upgrade choice for srt4's.

I didn't think so either, but if you check that first link I posted it takes you to his list of mods. I think maybe he just wasn't a good driver, at least dragging.

If you mean right after the evo/srt4 race, It was a 240.. can't remember if it was a turbo'd KA or an SR20, but judging by the launch I'd say SR
