Actually we just came over to have some good old fashioned bench racing fun, and talk about trucks, you're the one that said you "murdered four SRTs" when you're not stock yourself. There's no doubt if you really do run low 13s you might beat an completely stock SRT by a 10th or two, but that's hardly murdering them and like I said you're not stock, so it's not an apples to apples comparison in the first place.
Enough fun, you guys have a good night too.
No it was murder on the streets. I only have e fans, tune and UD pulley.
Good night.
welcome to the site.
Shreveport, could you murder my wife Station wagon, She's only puttin down a little north of 375. And why do you act like such a jerk. We're all in it for the same thing, it's just that we all have different tastes and fundage to satisfy the taste. You like a SUV with a Corvette/GTO engine. We like Trucks with Viper Engines. To the same end result, power. Quit bein such a spaz, and have fun.IKE
Hey, being a douche bag jerk is hard work, leave me alone.
I'll run the wagon.
I bought my tubb when premium was north of $3.00 and paid $23,950 out the door after TT&L. Looks like there will be another sale on the big motors this summer.

DODGE RAM SRT-10
Vehicle type: front-engine, rear-wheel-drive, 2-passenger, 2-door truck
Price as tested: $45,795
Price and option breakdown: base Dodge Ram SRT-10 (includes $795 freight), $45,795
They did start selling them under MSRP due to the FACT that they were slow and slushy from the factory.

The best test drivers in the business can only make these run 13.6's out of the box....thats a pretty big difference from you running a 12.9. You Dodge guys must be impressive drivers.
They did admit to not being stock. The door is open on what they will run. Quickness is just a matter of money when you start the mods.
Oh yeah, bed time. See ya.

No racerbation is you running your mouth on a SS site. Where are you located and where do you run? I know you ain't here cause none of those stock $40,000 trucks have been in the 12s at RRR. Go to the TBSS site and pick on some of them and their modded TBSSs, oh thats right, you might get called to the carpet. Did you douche bags run your trucks when they were stock? Probbably not because they were slow as hell. How do you feel about paying so much for it? Now you got a $50,000 truck that only does 12.9s.
I'm going to bed, you guys have a good night and be carefull out there.
Edited: I should not have called it a piece of shit. It is a nice truck with juvinile drivers.

You twats are just blowing. Once you step beyond stock, the door is open. Best stock SRT10, on stock tires, run I have seen in person is 13.7
If I had drag radials and Blah blah blah. Dodge owners are all the same. Cry like bitches when you beat them.
This internet racing is fun, ain't it.
I call it racerbation.

Nope, I can't get my SRT to do any worse than 12.9 and that's on a bad day. If you can only do low 13s, there no way you've killed four differnt SRTs, unless you did a rcier fly by or they were laughing so hard they could drive.
Then you are a long way from stock. 12.9s from a stock SRT10 truck BWAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA
I'm betting this is one of our regular SS guys playing around. 12.9s from a stock SRT10.
-
Get well soon! Gall bladders seem to be going out a lot. I am the only one in the immediate family that still has one.
-
This thread is a load of crap. If anyone wants really to try their SS against a real SRT-10, instead of in their imagination, just let me know.
I'll be your Huckleberry. All I have are e fans and a tune.

Fuel filter would give you problems at highway speeds before Idle. Have you pulled your plugs and checked the gap? Are you getting a CEL?
-
so was it a good race? how do you think someone with my mods will do against one? only seen one so far and he didnt wanna go.
Don't know, my tubb runs low 13s

He died a terrible death and was an **** about it afterwards.
He flipped me off and turned into Best Buy. I whooped a uey and pulled up next ot him. He was a bout 5"11' and maybe 200 lbs. I wanted to **** him up, but he was playing it off. 
I was a good boy. After all, Mamma says , I am so angry cause I got all these teef and nut'in ta chew on. -
Mine went 13.8 stock and 13.5 (best) with tune only. E fans got me to 13.3.
Stock limiter is set at 128mph. I have been to 151 (GPS) with it removed.

Hennessy has one of the weirdest reputations I have ever seen anybody have in business.
Those who know him know what I mean! ;)
I don't "hate to hear it".... I have no idea whatsoever about a Jeep's build quality. I've never owned one!
Haven't owned a TBSS either!
I'll have to take your word for it!
;)
What reliability issues do you have with the Jeep???? I know lots of guys with SRT8 cars who are problem free despite many miles of viscious pounding.
At 4800-5000 lbs, the TBSS and JGC SRT8 will destroy drive train parts, in fact if you visit the two forums, you will see a lot of puked trannys. I watched a Dodge 4X4 quad cab diesel run a 12.4 and backed it up with a broken input shaft on the next run. His brother came the next week in his and ran 11.4. My point being, If you race, you will break.

Eric Medlen succumbs to injuries suffered in recent testing accident
http://www.nhra.com/content/news/19197.htm

Eric Medlen
1973-2007
Eric Medlen, 33, who had emerged as one of the most popular young drivers in the NHRA POWERade Drag Racing Series, succumbed Friday afternoon to injuries suffered when his race car crashed into a guardwall during a Monday test session at Gainesville Raceway.
The talented Funny Car driver never regained consciousness. After being treated at the track, he was transported by ShandsCair helicopter to Shands at the University of Florida medical center where medical staff treated him for four days for a severe closed head injury.
"Eric suffered from severe traumatic brain injury with diffuse axonal injury, or DAI," said Dr. Joseph Layon, Professor of Anesthesiology, Surgery and Medicine and the Chief of Critical Care Medicine at UF. "Survival rates associated with DAI are low.
"On Tuesday, UF and Shands neurosurgery team performed a cranjectomy and removed the front portion of the skull to relieve pressure and attempt to improve blood flow to the brain," Dr. Layon explained. "Despite receiving the most aggressive treatment, Eric continued to have uncontrollable intracranial pressure. His body lost the ability to manage it's salt and water levels and he began displaying the complicating factors associated with DAI.
"That is when Eric's family elected to honor Eric's wishes and remove him from the artificial life support systems. Our hearts go out to Eric's loved ones."
"On behalf of the family, I want to thank the medical staff at Shands not just for giving Eric the very best care he could have received, but for the compassion it showed for Eric and all those close to him," said his father, John Medlen. "I also want to thank the thousands of people who offered their prayers and support to us during this very difficult time."
As recently as Thursday night, more than 100 drivers and crew members representing every Indianapolis-based race team attended a prayer vigil organized by Kelly Bustos, team manager for Tuttle Motorsports, which fields Top Fuel dragsters for 2006 Rookie-of-the-Year J.R. Todd, one of Medlen's closest friends in the sport.
At Louisville, Ky., where BP/Castrol had set up booth space for the Mid-America Trucking Show, fans and well-wishers filled up two giant posters with get well wishes Thursday. Moreover, more than 4,500 individual messages of support were left at a special e-mail address on the first day it was activated.
"Eric Medlen was the son I never had," said team owner John Force. "He was the leader of my next generation of drivers. Robert Hight, my daughter Ashley and I were with the family throughout this very difficult time. This loss is a huge blow not only to the Medlen family, but to drag racing and to John Force Racing. I just want to thank everybody for their support, from Larry Smiley with Racers for Christ to the hospital staff to the whole drag racing community. Our prayers go out to the family."
Little more than three years ago, Medlen took over driving responsibilities in the Funny Car in which Tony Pedregon won the 2003 championship. He had distinguished himself as one of the brightest young stars on the circuit, winning six times in his first three seasons and never finishing outside the top-five in driver points.
A graduate of Oakdale (Calif.) High School, where he was a high school rodeo champion in calf roping, Medlen trained under the watchful eye of two-time PRCA World Champion Jerold Camarillo and had contemplated a career in pro rodeo before his father called in 1996 to offer him a mechanic's job at John Force Racing, Inc.
After spending one season on the team on which his father was crew chief, he moved over one pit stall in 1997 to work on the car driven by 14-time NHRA champion John Force. Serving first as the supercharger technician and later as a clutch specialist, he was a member of a team the crewed Force to 50 tour victories and six championships in seven seasons.
When Tony Pedregon left after the 2003 season to form his own team, Medlen was Force's surprise pick to fill the seat, a move that re-united him with his father on the No. 2 team at JFR.
He was the sport's top Funny Car rookie in 2004, winning at Brainerd, Minn. He won three races in 2005 and two in 2006 including the race contested closest to his hometown -- the Fram/Autolite Nationals at Infineon Raceway in Sonoma, Calif

I look at it this way,
1. I bought my TBSS for $23,950 out the door and ran 13.8 stock. Only .6 slower than a stock $45,000 JGCSRT8
2. Bought a tune for $350 (Wester's group buy) and ran 13.521. Only .3 slower
3. Added E.fans and underdrive pulley $900.00 and ran 13.361. only .25 slower
4. If I add a 3600 stall and drag radials I would be near 12.5s
6. Just imagine what I could do with another $45,000.

Runs fine while im driving it
I just changed the air filter about 30 miles ago. i have a aem brute force intake and have two filters now so i can clean one and give it plenty of time to dry while still be able to drive truck. Fuel filter is in the tank for an 05 if i remember correctly. I better put my stock tune back on and talk to the dealer about it on thursday
I was having a rough idle and performance issues and when I pulled the OEM plugs I found the gap anywhere from .025 to .035. I installed new plugs gapped to .040 (per spec for my engine) and it runs smooth and strong now.

in Street
Posted
Don't have to. There is a fellow with a 370 stroker in a R/C Dodge running 12.5s on a motor built for juice, and he aint spraying yet. If you want to send a STOCK SRT10 over. Come on, after all, that is what we are talking about.
