Rumble Bees dont look all that bad, now that Daytona truck, thats fugly, with a rear spoiler thats soo high it makes it look like a shopping cart! Not to mention is like that dull black color with more dull black paint along its ricey orange side.

was it a yellow Rumble????

older guy??? DE tag???

was the car behind him a yellow RT Neon?

...if so I have seen them race. father and son.

the Rumble Bee seemed to have some tuning problems, and
only ran low 14s?, but was very cool looking and impressive
under the hood etc. Looks like he spent mucho $$$$$.

but for the money spent / wasted, he could have had a L that
ran low...low 12s??????

oh well, chalk it up for the Lightning boys.

There is a guy in my area that got his rumble bee repainted and tried passing it off as a SRT-10.

Because these stock guys are gonna look stupid when they get owned.

The past few times i've been up the track, there's a new group of lightning owners running 03 and 04's................sporting 14 second time slips.

Probably cause of the torque management they use. Even supercharged those things don't make sh:t for torque. I'm sure there are ways around it but those newer trans they use probably won't like it too much.

Dodge really needs to develop some drivelines they can have a little faith in. Til then those s/c hemis can eat my dust.

Here's some info on the Supercharger and Turbo out for the hemi.

GSM's 6psi Supercharger is making 389rwhp and 387rwtq. With the stock pcm the torque managment wigs out bad, so they they rigged it to not deliver the full amount of torque. With a standalone pcm torque would be in the mid 400's.

Theres also a hemi ram with STS turbo with a TEC 3r standalone computer w/ 42lb injectors. At 7psi, he dyno'd 475rwhp and 540rwtq.

Hey isnt it true that a stock single cab hemi vs a Lightning well without a s/c would the Hemi just kill the lightning cause i mean isnt that all a lightning is a Supercharged F-150, also heard that a s/c Rumble Bee had smoked a lightning. lol im not saying that Dodge is better than Ford or anything just wondering and such.But yeah i do remember hearing someone telling me that a s/c bee beat a lightning. Think it was one of my buds he drives a Hemi Sport believe he said they guy posted on that Rumblebee.org saying he smoked a Lightning. But you know them dodgeboys.Tell more lies than truth.
