btw dirty, you ever look at the gearing options on the 09s? go to your local dealer and see what they have in the lot.
Yes. I don't know if bullet is a tester or not.

Variable cam timing and the variable port intake help a lot as well as the better flowing heads!!!!

No. Scott sent me a flashpaq 3865 for beta testing. I just went and looked at my emails and saw your name on them.

Yea the 09's are not fast at all. My truck is a brick when accelerating and from 30mph I smoked an 09. We shut em down at about 70 and I was at least 4 lengths ahead.

Were you racing one with a V6? There's no way a 5.9 can keep up with the new hemi. 245 hp vs. 395? Just not possible.

^^^ 'Twas what i was thinking. Don't forget about the giant gap in torque as well. Along with a 5sd tranny vs 4spd. big diff right there in gearing alone.

Actually the 09 probably wasn't racing. He was just driving and Shiloh was full throttle, and the 09 was just a car length behind getting "smoked."
