YEE HAW!

Yeah nice kill, I suppose, but I bet that v10 was bone stock =) and more than likely auto =/

Let some of the other members on here get out their v-10's and try them, their pretty tough stuff hehe.

yeah.. it wouldnt take much to get some serious power out of those trucks.. but it just seems like to me their made for pulling power.. not speed.. i raced 3 f-150's in about 4 days also.. closest races i've ever seen!.. i'd have them threw 1st.. 2nd they would pull about half a truck length ahead but i'd get that back tacking out 2nd and pull ahead in 3rd

as far as i know the v10's never did come with a manual so i'm pretty sure it was an auto. little slower shifts.

also it weighs a lot more than that 318 so you got some advantage there. and you have a 1500 so it's even lighter still with the dana 44's and corporate 9.25.

i would've been surprised if you hadn't taken him down in the top end.

still good showing of the dodge's power. either way i would've been happy seeing either of you win.

The V10s came with manuals...the same one that the CTDs came with. And the 47RH that's in my truck shifts very quickly Maybe the REs are slower? [>:]

He must not have had the hammer down...or something [>:] The only mods I have done to my truck are in my sig, and I've roasted more than a few HEMI Rams already....as well as a few Mustangs

A 47RE shifts plenty quick at WOT

Maybe he wasn't racing

Good to know I know the RH does...and I spent a good part of today making sure mine still did

Maybe he wasn't racing
That's another possibility

this is interesting....is there any chance that one of you V10 guys might hit the track? ive not seen a V10 ram (other than the srt10) run...i think that depending on the outcome, it would surprise alot of people
