Default Your HEMI RAM vs....

QUESTION: Imagine driving your HEMI RAM and street racing one of the vehicles below...could you beat them in a race? CHECK THE BOXES IF YOU THINK YOU COULD BEAT EM'!!! All below are stock (I know that street racing is very subjective, but just imagine being between 2 stop lights, or whatever...) ok...go! From my experiences, I have been completely (& obviously) smoked by an 05 Corvette, and have been about 50/50 with Mustang GT's, despite people thinking that's total BS...anyhow, everything else I've raced I've beaten...imports, 4 cyls etc...anyway have fun, and feel free to talk smack below include your mods.

I guess it all depends on the configuration of your Ram. Of course a RCSB will have a chance with a Chevy SS, but a 4x4 MegaCab will be a little on the heavy side.

I personally have a 04 QCSB with 3.55 rear. I believe that I could win against the following:
1. 05 F-150 of similar configuration w/ 5.4L
2. 05 Titan of similar configuration w/ 5.6L
3. 05 Silverado of similar configuration w/ 5.3L

There is no way you're gonna beat a SRT anything. Just like any race, it is all about variables: hook-up, reaction time, etc....

I've never raced a stock Mustang GT, but with my set up I'm pretty sure I can take on. I raced my friends '03 GT w/CAI, X-pipe, Cat-back and tune...he put a hurtin on the Hemi. I'm positive I can take the Chebby's...no doubt in my mind. An old LT1 Camaro...sure, I think I can. Deff not an Camaro SS, Lightning or SRT-4...if you choose any of those then you must be running nitrous! And why is the F-150 up there...I've raped so many F-X50's. Those turds suck ***!!!

Default RE: Your HEMI RAM vs....

I was looking into buying a ford f-150, when i was 16...but as the age goes up, so does the wisdom!!! i smoked this rich looking jackass in a new silverado the other day..made the ***** feel greater in size...the reason for the 73 camaro, if anyone was wondering, it's because my father used to have one, I remember it as a little kid, clean looking car..but ive argued with him several times about who'd win that one...it was a LT, big thick metal...don't remember about the exhuast, but he did have biger pistons put it...i still think id take him, if you ever come across the hp/tq on those things it's super-ridiculous...as far as hp/tq on the 2002 SS Camaro, I was surprised to find out how low most of them were, but then you have weight, shift points and all that, don't think we'd be taking any of those...I might get a superchip flashpaq soon...don't know when but i'll keep ya posted...sorry for the rant, I'm bored tonight...

Could not agree more, you need more than bolt ons on our tanks to beat the following....

2005 Mustang GT 6% (7)

2003 Ford Lightning 2% (3)

2005 Dodge Ram SRT-10 (please don't click this) 0% (0)

2005 Dodge Neon SRT-4 2% (3)

2002 SS Camaro 3% (4)

1973 LT Camaro 9% (10) ***Not sure about this one since I am not sure what engine options they had this year.
