Default whats wrong with SRT-4's?

I have tried to get 2 SRT-4's to bite on 2 seperate occasions. THEY WONT RACE ME?!
Before I was tooling around in the rain follow my buddy in his eclipse GSX.. its a turbo all wheel drive, basically nothing but trans and interior are stock. Exterior is all stock too aside from the hacked up front facial for the front mount. It was raining so it was probly better I didnt race him since traction seems to be becoming even more of an issue.
This guy seemed to be just driving around, I saw a neon come up behind me and thought nothing of it till I heard a laser beam go off behind me. Natrually I was intrigued, gave him a little V8 salute when he got close but nothing.. is my truck really not intimidating? I thought it looked pretty mean in the rearview mirror of a 65 mustang

I'm almost positive an SRT-4 would beat you. i think they run high 8s low 9s stock. My friends Firebird Formula (ran 8.7 stock) only pulls them by a few lengths

**1/8th mile times of course

well I dont necessarily expect to win. I really wanna see where my trucks at. I know the tune is still off but theres days it feels like the temps are right and its just there. ****** pussies IMO. If theres some **** box honda that wants to race me, y not, Ill open it up. Little adrenaline of speed never hurt right? maybe its just me

The only fun I've been having is opening the electric cut out and blasting them with a little noise....
