I agree, You may have something there from a roll. But from a dig (1/4 mile), I bet it would be interesting.

If its a 09 stock vs a 3.73 ls1 im going to bet from 50 he "slowly" pulls if you go past 80, your lighter weight and gears may keep you even with him for a gear but if i had to bet ide say the RT bye a car from 50 to 115 him pulling after 70 or 80.

This sounds a bit right. I'd put it at 104, 105. No way are they 110 cars... not stock. Not at all. Not without a tailwind, weight reduction, and a slingshot off the line.

Stock, i just dont see them runnin low 13.
I see em mid 13s at best, yeah. Low 13s, like 13.2... no

Its not that far off, the 5.7's can move out for sure if built right.
No ones disputing that. A honda can move out if built right.

Yeah. The older RTs were much worse.

The older 340hp RTs were DOGSSS stock. I ran one from a dig in my old V6 CTS... and held up till about 60ish when he started pulling. LOL They're talking about the new 370 ones.

Soooo I learned a lot about Dodge's.....Thanks guys lol. I think I can take him on a 50 roll. I think in 4th gear (where my car pulls hardest) i'll start to yank him.

the dodge will yank you, just give him the money up front and save yourself the trouble.

Still im not seing it guys. Ive raced a couple of these cars and I would have said they were more around a 100 mph trap. Atleast around here. I raced a 11' charger from a dig and blew the tires off in first, and second I pulled HARD. The challenger was slightly better but no way it was hangig with me. I beat it roughly 4-5 cars from 0-140. I trapped 104 at the track, granted 2.+ 60'. I guess maybe that's what throwing me off....

I have a similar race upcoming,so I have been watching this thread. A coworker has a 09 R/T and thinks he will take me. He is bone stock and claims 390 HP. (I thought they were 370 and the trucks were 390 due to better exhaust.) I have a 97 SS with a fairly mild H/C set up. I hope to race soon cause the weather is going to turn to ****. It might be spring time,I will let you guys know. I dont think it will even be close.

judging bye your mods your LS2 in stock form is well more then enough, Hell I pulled a Porsche 911 4S "355hp" model from a roll bye half a car with my old A4 05 GTO. And those car are quite light.
