Default Chased an SRT-10 quad cab.

I was right behind him on the Fwy onramp. He jumped on it and so did I and hung with him till about 70 then he started pulling little by little. Not sure what mods he had, but i know he definitley had exhaust work done. Well... I guess my R/T did ok. Those trucks run mid to high 13s stock right?

A stock QC is high 13s to low 14s. They are detuned from the factory so it can have a tow rating and save the auto tranny. Top end still in the upper 140s on it though. Never did like the QC SRT idea, was suppose to be a non-practical hot rod truck. Tow rating/payload, back seat=practical.

RC times vary ALOT. Mainly due to the driver. They are not easy to drive, especially in stock form. I have seen stock time sheets from as low as upper 12s to 14. It is the main reason some think the lightning is faster as you have people who just flat out can not drive the SRT and post bad times.

I really would like to get a rc SRT10, pretty wicked truck. I can imagine a 6 speed with a light rear end and low-pro 22s could be a handful!

QC SRT, it like he kids come run the 1/4 mile with daddy, hopefully we won't crash and burn, oh don't forget to leave mom a note, come one Scruffy wanna go for a truck ride, ya that's a good boy. Now fire up 500 ponies and go fly down the track with your kids and dog at 103 mph.

I am gonna get the little orange R/T and put it where you put the Hemi badge and I will have the first Crew cab R/T. I sure am glad they didn't go with that prototype someone was working on, badge is cheaper than a sticker and a wing.

Being that the dodge R/T and the tundra rcsb are pretty much identical in times and trap speeds, there is a video out of a rcsb on nitrous or with the TRD S/C (i forget) racing an rcsb SRT10 ram. I think the tundra only won 2 out of 5 times and that was because the ram got heat soak. It was close but man thats a bad *** truck. A S/C rcsb tundra runs low 13's high 12's and the SRT10 still beat him 3 times stock.

Try that again, this time in english.

I hear the R/T badge alone is worth a few tenths, you're making the right call.

I'm sure that was a good time. The R/T's sure seem like they would be a blast to drive. A shame they don't make an R/T in the Crew Cab and even in a 4x4. Of course it wouldn't be as fast as the regular cab, but would still be a really cool truck.

The thing about the SRT10 Ram is with that big V10 their potential is only limited by how much money you have in the bank. A friend of mine has a performance shop and has built a turbo SRT10 Ram that is up to something like 1100 or 1200hp now.

I saw a pretty wicked supercharged rc srt10 on the power tour. I'd have to think traction would be an issue way before the money runs out!
