    2006 coupe won't spin tires just flooring it?

    Yes OEM Cats - bone stock with exception of '08 cat back to eliminate the cross-over. I'm planning to run a 0-60 and quarter mile against a buddies '12 SRT8 Grand Cherokee and my fear is that he'll win just due to my lack of traction when the fun pedal is depressed.

    My first July 4th as a Viper owner so I decided to grab a roll of red vinyl tape and make my Blue/White FE Coupe a bit more patriotic. There is a nice coat of Meguiars Gold under this so I am not worried about removal - almost tempted to leave it on.
