Post Lightnings are ugly and cost way too much

How about this "Lightnings are rated for high 14s R/Ts are too.They are equal"

"I beat a cobra with my R/T"


"Dodge has a ST dakota V6 blown that runs low 13s stock"


" My CC R/T is awesome"
" My RCC R/T is better "
"MY BC R/T is really the best"
These retards actually name their trucks by the clear coat color!!!!!!

It goes on and on ,Thank got for a real board

That's pitiful. They really think they are just as fast as L's? I guess this kid who wanted some yesterday thought so. From a 50mph punch, I pulled him hard. 50-80mph and it was like 5-6 truck lengths...that's a lot when racing from that speed. Then I slowed for a redlight and he pulls up. I give him the thumbs up and point ahead...no dice. Too bad...it would've been closer to 8+ lengths from a standing start.

I don't know what an R/T costs, but something that runs 15s isn't impressive anymore if its a "performance" vehicle. Sounds like the famous "sticker package" to me.

Or is that the "SST"?...doesn't matter. I don't pay other trucks any attention unless they instigate something.

I stumbled into there home-coming event at the chrysler tech center. Must have been 50 Daslowda R/Ts. I had an autocross there about an 1/8 mile away. After my Autocross I went over to look at their car show, 5 had blowers (3 powerdynes and 2 Vortechs) and 1 had nitrous (NX).

This blue one was trying to egg me into racing, I looked over and laughed.
Normaly a give it a little wirl, but not then, as I was already going 45 in a 35 mphz.

Those damn R/T's think they are so badddd. They are always trying to run my "slow 5.0 SN-95 Cobra" and are always left before I get out of first gear. The 3.73's sure help They do look nice, but nowhere near as good as a L!
