Me Vs. Ram SRT-10?
Me Vs. Ram SRT-10? Who would win from a roll? I saw one on the street by my house yesterday and I was pretty busy trying to catch up. By the time I was catching up he was turning and I really didn't feel like following him because he probably wouldn't have raced anyway. I'm looking up various info and stock they do the 1320 in 13.8. Any ideas?

I rolled one from about 55 in my WS6. I stayed in fourth, and rolled tolike 130 or so. I should have started in 3rd, but he got the jump on me...Took me for about half a truck length....But after 100mph, I pulled him fairly good to get about a car on him unitl we shut down.....Mods are in my sig....
He ran me good...but you should get him in the long run...they are heavy trucks...but make much power and TQ....have fun

Hmm, I hope this wasn't once in a "lifetime" oppurtunity. I feel like I would have wasted him. I just hear stories of stock SRT's taking Lightning by a buses and got a little intimidated.
It's all good.

. Maybe I should start looking into nitrous. I don't know. Before you ever were tuned we hung together at high speed's pretty well. And then you got tuned so I assume you pulled ahead and now I'm going to up the boost so maybe we'll be back to even again (however if i'm about 500 I better not be merely keeping up w/ you) lol.

They have tons of power and torque thru a huge motor, but in combo with the 22's and the weight, it compensates for power to say the least.
Ive personally been to Lightning meets at local tracks and watched 45 Ls all run in the 13's, alot in 12's and some in 11's. The best stock was a 13.28 on the stock F1 tire with just an intake. Needless to say they move out, and SRT-10s consistently run high 13's to low 14's.
Im amused that everyone on here jumps on the guy that says a L cannot beat a SRT-10, even tho the Lightnings run low 13s stock, and then come on here and say a 13.80 camaro will beat one.
Regardless, go for it, you will not have a problem.

Well according to all these dummies here at this forum SRT-10 run 12.7stock so then you would lose very badly. Good thing they are living in a dream world. I see them run between 13.7-14.4 so i think it would be a drivers race and depending on if its a normal or quad cab.
