If it was a Charger SRT, you were the one that didn't have a chance in hell.

Where did he say it was a Hellcat? Completely different.

Your standard SRT is probably a 12 to 13 second 1/4 miler.

But, I see this all of the time. Not sure what their problem is, just morons in general I guess. Though a few times I noticed them on the phone and they seem to wake up when I go by them.

Not a problem. What choice do you have? Not sure why someone would say YOU were showboating, looks like the goon in the car was showboating to me.

More like "he seemed like he was wanting to run me over officer, I passed him doing the speed limit then he tried to kill me".
