ok im new on here but me and my friend are having a race ram to ram hes got a 99 2500 stock, mine is a 98 1500 nothin done to it but some offroad tires and a k&n air filter.. a quarter mile race who you think will win? i just wanted some opinions thanks

 

engines?

 

both have the 5.9 360

 

what gears? trans? motors? bodies? mileage? 4x4? 4x2?. i will stop there.

 

lol both 4x4 his 2500 mines 1500 i have 120*** miles his maybe 100 not sure both 5.9 360s. the tracks dont open for a while its winter but by febuary or march i should have my cold air intake and my super 44 flowmaster muffler but me and him are friends and wana do the same thing so who knows what he will do also

 

o.k. i'll take a guess. he will because he probably has better gearing than you.

 

guess well see i perticularily think im a better driver and a drag racer but nothing to hard bout going in a straight line right.. thanks for the opinion

 

the 1500 might win since its lighter, but the gearing on the 2500 might even it out.
only one true way to know...
I'd do 3 out of 5 runs, unless its a blowout, then who wants to get beat badly another 2 times?

 

I would say the 1500 will win in the 1/4 mile due to the weight difference. Are all 2500's geared lower? And wouldn't the advantage of lower gearing give out before the 1/4 mile?

 

Tires also.
You say you have off-road tires.
Are they taller than stock?
You loose some off-the-line time
with a taller tire. Gearing WILL
net him a win is he's grunting around
with 4.10's & your driving around with 3.55's.
Your muffler won't do squat except sound better
going down the track than his. You exhaust only flows
as well as your smallest restriction in the WHOLE system allows.
But,.. He's a buddy, have fun, enjoy.
