PewterC3 Posted November 8, 2004 Report Share Posted November 8, 2004 I finally was in the right place at the right time today. I don't worry about hemi's from a dead stop(maybe a SCSB with 17's and mods) but I've heard those hemi's are pretty strong up top....and I got a chance to see for myself today. I'm tooling along about 70-75 and this silver hemi 2WD QC w/20's passes me while he's playing with a Honda S2000. I let them go by and thought....hmmm...maybe I should play. As I sped up to about 90 and approached he must have seen me and got on it. I was too far behind to be interested so I let him slow again and wait for me, which happened as he hit some traffic. I catch them and now we are tooling along 70-75mph again, the hemi QC, S2000 and I. All of the sudden things open up and I have the left lane, the hemi jumps over to the right lane, and the S2000 is blocked in the center by a slower car. So.. ..I'm on it...the hemi's on it and we're about even with the speedometer climbing.....85....90 the hemi is just off my bumper....95-100 now he's a half a length behind....105-110 hehe, I have a full length now....115-120 now I have 1.5-2 lengths and I'm pulling away on him.......... as I wave goodbye out the back window! LOL!!!!!! I will say this.....I don't know what mods he had if any(I'm guessing he did have the 3.90's though)....but had I not had my custom exhaust and Wester's tune we would have been pretty even!

ctrow Posted November 8, 2004 Report Share Posted November 8, 2004 Unless he had a programmer(which they just came out) they are speed limited to roughly 110 MPH. Either way good kill. I never could get more than 2-3 truck lengths on my friends Hemi QC. At least until 110MPH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deezel Posted November 9, 2004 Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 dodge trucks are fun to beat. mainly because their owners seem to think they are fast when they are not... of course, I still haven't found a SRT-10 Ram on the highway (or at a stoplight) yet.

Especially the magnum vs. lotus (I think) Through a winding road loaded down..... Oh please Good kill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevy blows Posted November 27, 2004 Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 Please Chevy guys shouldn't talk. Your commercials are even worse then Dodge. Like the silveraHOE that pulls the semi full of chevy cars. Honestly Chevy hasn't put out anything that impressive. Granted the SS silveraHOE maybe zippy put you guys took it up the ass paying like 45G's for one. They don't look that hot either they need to make a reg cab option cuz it looks way too long. AS for the 05 corvette common its starting to look similar to a viper...to bad the viper will still kill it in a race. you guys need to grow sacks and admit that Dodge isn't that bad. cuz honestly there are plenty of Dodges out there that are just waiting to smoke your asses. oh by the way i am a R/T owner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of us paid around $34k. Maybe you're confused with the price of a SRT-10? Sticker on a SS is only about $41K, but who pays sticker? Even for you, Hemi's must be easy kills. Your time is around 13.8, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenKey Posted November 27, 2004 Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 true i should be more mature, but I can't help it when somebody bad mouth a brand a love. thanks truebluert <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I think it's pretty typical for a branded site, ie Chevy, to bad mouth other brands. Are you telling me there is not the same on your site? It's the same on Ford, Titan, etc., etc.. If I went to your site, which I have, I would understand it. It's not my home turf. So, get over it. It's just the nature of things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueblueR/T Posted November 27, 2004 Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 true i should be more mature, but I can't help it when somebody bad mouth a brand a love. thanks truebluert <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Not a problem; you will find all the B.S. from either side stops when you line em up at the track..Just seams to create a lot more respect all the way around..Bring your R/T to some of the meets next year,,you will see what I mean..Just look for a greyhaired old man driving a slammed IBCC and it will probably be me..

Not 100% sure it's him, I'll need him to post a few more times to narrow it down. We'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
