not bad......

not a bad group of cars. I noticed that the Buick GNX and the 01 L are pretty close @ 13.70 and 101 & 102 mph. I used to have an '87 GN and they are also very easy to make quick. Anyway, glad to see the L turn the same time as the famed GNX.....

They did add the SRT 10.

36. 2004 DODGE Ram SRT10 13.60, 105

Also i'm sure that there are plenty of TT Porsche 911, and the Ferrari Enzo. This list blows!!!!

You're right. But they listed the SRT-8 models. 6.1L Hemi - 425HP. Underrated though. Guys are dynoing 367-370 at the wheels, stock. A 300C SRT-8 went 12.90 @ 108 at Atco back in June. BONE STOCK. Now GS Motorsports has a S/C kit for them and they netted 500/500 to the wheels. Magnaflow is getting into the game as well as a well known chip manufacturer. They're definitely impressive.
