Default Ram Or Charger?

Which would win stock in an 1/8th mile race? Both with hemis, the ram being a single cab with 20's. Also how much does the ram weigh and how much does the charger weight? Thanks guys.

your name is familiar...where else are you active?

a charger RT should beat a single cab ram with 20s..or 17s...or whatever tire and rims combo, if both vehicles are stock.

I've seen several videos of stock Chargers running in the 12's in the 1/4 ( only having CAI's ) so I'd say the Ram wouldn't have a chance.

The charger just seemed so much weaker than the ram though? Im talking about 05 and 06 models by the way. I have seen some rams put up some nice numbers with just a CAI as well. U guys are including the 05 and 06 models as well correct? Just was curious about this because when i test drove both the ram seemed WAY faster, must have just been my imagination though?

That Ram has 1% chance with that 1% being mechanical or driver failure in the Charger.

&lt\\;P&gt\\;A stock Charger R/T w/5.7L Hemi shouldn’t have any problems at all beating a RC Ram w/5.7L Hemi.&lt\\;/P&gt\\;
&lt\\;P&gt\\;A stock Charger SRT-8 w/6.1L Hemi would absolutely blow it away.&lt\\;/P&gt\\;
&lt\\;P&gt\\;&amp\\;nbsp\\;&lt\\;/P&gt\\;
&lt\\;P&gt\\;The Ram might &quot\\;feel&quot\\; faster because of different gears &amp\\;amp\\; suspension, but it’s still no contest in the quarter mile.&lt\\;/P&gt\\;
