Ok, there has been a Daytona Ram running around here that thinks it is hot stuff. Always doing the thing where he stabs the gas then slows down trying to get people to race. I have been waiting to run him until I got my cam in bc I wanted to make sure that I really stuck it to him. Well today I was lucky enough to pull next to him. First off, I could tell he was a little put off that my hood scoop is bigger than his . So he started to do his thing with the throttle stab. All the other times I have come across him I just ignored him, but this time I rolled the window down and gave him the signal lets go. I guess he thought his wing on the back would make him fast but it didn't. Smoked him from 0 up to about 50. He didn't seem to happy as he drove past me while I waited to turn into wawa .

Just got a superchips flashpaq today, had an empty tank so I put in 93 octane, programmed it for performance and decided just to drive around and see how it handled. Lucky enough I was at a light and this riced out civic pulled up beside me with his girlfriend, kinda like gone in 60 seconds minus the porsche plus a 4.7 1500. Man did he give me a glare when he caught up to me at the next light. His girlfriend must not have been happy her little ricer couldn't keep up with a real mans engine lol.

I have to give some credit to the newer vw jettas. My mom has one and my dad and I had just got done argueing about which would win from a redlight and from a 50 mph roll. Later that day I was driving my truck and my dad was in the jetta (before the programmer) and from a redlight we both floored it and he was gone. Then from a 50 mph roll later on the freeway I took him in the beginning but he slammed by me when I was getting to about 80, he said he looked down and was doing around 90. I drive it occasionally and I have to say if I could afford it, I would buy one (5 speed of course, probably turboed) but also keep the truck lol.

Do some research on the 84 vettes... They were the 1st year of the C4 body style and had the L83 Crossfire injected 350 that carried over from the C3's. They are DOGS. Here are the specs of the 84 vette.

http://www.corvetteguys.com/1984-chevrolet-corvette.html

So here we have a 26 year old car with 205 HP stock that ran 0-60 in 7 seconds flat when it was brand new. Flash forward to 2003 when my Ram was built. Truck Trend tested a RC Ram exactly like mine and it did 0-60 in 6.8 and was 4 tenths faster in the 1/4 mile.

My truck is 19 years newer with less wear and tear, plus it was quicker brand new. Mine is a RCSB Hemi with 3.92 gears, so YES it is possible. Ya might wanna figure out the facts before you call someone else out next time.
