Oh so clever!
Exactly, so why are you bragging about it? Last time I checked, Ford still made the fastest truck IN PRODUCTION.

Hey, how's that 260 rwhp Hemi doing?

Actually if you read my posts i'm not bragging about it. I'm just defending it.
And i wouldn't know about any 260 rwhp Hemi because there isn't one around. Now if i could just remember what motor was banned from racing..........Oh, that's right, the Hemi, becuse it was unfair for them to when all the time. Now everyone bases their drag motors after them, even Ford. The only Ford motor that was banned, was banned because they couldn't sell enough.

Go ask your fellow Dodge boys what the new "Hemi Ram" dynos stock. I think you'll be surprised.

Hint: It's not the rated 345 hp

As for defending the SRT-10, it's a lost cause around here. The truck looks gaudy and that rear wing is nothing but an afterthought. The exhaust is also very plain and the 22 inch wheels hinder the performance of the truck a lot. The shifter is long and awkward and the interior looks chinzy.

The only thing it has going for it is the Viper V10, which is a respectable motor in itself. However, the overall package and price of the SRT-10 is simply not worth it. Even the true diehard Dodge performance enthusiast thinks a lot of the qualities of a performance truck are amiss.

What you people aren't realizing is that you don't always race in a strat line. With those 22" and wide tires they will stick to the road in a turn while your stock L will be fish-tailing. I love Dodge and will die when it dies. I hate ford because of all the sh*t i have been through with them. If u like them i don't care, we will see who is better on the track.
Also, I would just like to point out to you that a set of heavy 22 inch wheels will not help any car out in the twisties. It may have a lower profile and stiffer sidewall, but you are sacrificing a lot of control and handling ability due to its sheer weight. Do you see any road race cars running 22 inch wheels?

And as for who will be better at the track, like you said, we shouldn't be comparing them with mods but rather bone stock. Mods and money don't mean anything at the track, just who has the quicker timeslips. That means I want to see an SRT-10 BONE STOCK with its 22 inch wheel and tire package beat a BONE STOCK Lightning.

I agree we will have to wait until that happens. I don't know anyone with an L or anyone w/enough greenback to get an SRT, because they are to expensive.

I live in Oregon by the way.

If that time comes though, please have your friend post the times and his/her win. I don't want to see another "my friend beat a...." post.

After I put my Hotchkis full suspension and QA-1's, upgrade my brakes and do some more mods. I'll have less money in my L, will look better and outperform the SRT-10 in any aspect.

The SRT-10 is overpriced. To make it right it should have an 5 speed auto take some weight out.

Boy this post has degraded to one of the all time lows. No way do I side with the Mopar supporters, but I was hoping the Ford clan could be the classiest of the group. Who cares who's d-ck is bigger than the others.
