Default power of an '09

This morning on my way to work and '09 Hemi 1500 comes up beside me and stays there for a bit. We are going about 30-40 down the road then the guy floors it and takes off. What I am impressed about is he was still able to get the tires to spin at that speed. Now I am wondering if my hemi could do it.

of course it could just stomp the pedal to the floor and you should be able to chirp em.

I think he means Quad Cab. The newer '09's have club and crew. no more quad.
