Srt 8 magnums run high low 13s and high 12s. Why is a 13.2 fbody beating one so hard to believe?? Ive lost to his car a few times, but my car is faster. Does that mean it couldnt happen?

I raced a red SRT/10 dodge ram about 3 months ago 2 times on the freeway from about 70-75mph or so and I beat him everytime. GOOD KILL!

Why was it lucky if his car is supposedly slower obviously he had the driver mod. How else would you explain it?

Anything can happen on the street. And not to emphasize the weight of those cars, but an R/T Charger has a Curb Weight of 4031 lbs. ( edmunds.com)

That is a near 500-600 pnd difference. My Fbody weighs 3310
Now, when youre side by side with one of these, it takes alot of torque to get that bitch moven again.
Here's the Stats:
Horsepower: 340 hp Max Horsepower: 5000 rpm
Torque: 390 ft-lbs. MaxTorque: 4000 rpm
The torque peak is at 4000RPM, where as the LT1's Tq peak is at 4800 ( more if modded ) and the LS1 is even better.

I think my LT1 when is was stock would take on of those R/T's from a 65 mph Roll... So if an LT1 would be close or beat it, an LS1 would most likely take the cake.
Not so say the R/T isnt a fast car, it is. But take away the momentum, and its a different ball game, plus the fact they only run low 14's anyways.

Anything can happen on the street, but I'll be damned if some white collar **** thinks he's gonna show me up in his new toy because he paid 25K for it, its got a mean face and it says charger on it.
Now an SRT8 is a different story. Thats a 425 HP engine. IT takes a large heads and cam kit to make an LS1 make numbers like that, imagine of you put a heads/cam on that hemi, stuffed it in a mid 90's Stealth with AWD, ( 3700 pnds ) and put 35's on it.

You are correct.

Everyone has missed the point that you raced a daytona, 5.7L and not the srt-8 version!


And I agree with another poster, in stock form, the average srt-8 will beat an average f-body at the track 9/10 times. There's factory freaks from both sides.
