I am sure that the 300C SRT8 ,SRT-4,AND EVO were bone stock.



They were as "bone stock" as the other cars in the top ten, at a fraction of the cost.

I am absolutly positive they were taken down to the local TUNER shop for the works which was paid for by DODGE other than the EVO.



The 300C was driven by two Chrysler engineers representing the SRT division. It had the Charger SRT8 suspension, a blueprinted engine, fat tires and catless exhaust. The SRT-4 was driven by Lake Effect Racing, with all upgrades out of the Mopar catalog. The Evo was built and driven by an Evo tuner shop.

Its not how much power you have its how little mass you must move or turn.



Actually, its the power to weight ratio, traction, the engineering of the chassis and how much you can afford. If you start with a mass produced, high volume vehicle like a Neon, 300, Imprezza, or Lancer you pass those savings to the customer. 4 door sedans also tend to have a stiffer chassis from the centrally located post.
