This weekend I went down to Vegas for the Lowrider show. On Saturday night I went with my cousin to the street races. I had no intentions on racing and was there to just watch. While parked an SRT 10 pulled up next to me and wanted to race, at first I said no because I had my bags still loaded in my X and I have 22" rims. I finally gave in and drove out to the line. I took off and pulled away from him for a split second in 1st. then he caught me but only stayed a half a car length infront of me throughout the rest of the race. When I returned people were coming up to me suprised I kept up with the SRT-10. After that I had people asking to race me left and right. Alot of people were asking what the hell I was driving. It was a good night.

was it the 2 dr 6 speed or the 4 door auto? my g/f dad has the 2dr and theres no way we could keep up unless s/c. its got way to much torque, might of been a new driver. also you said bags filled up? air bags? can you post some pics if you have any.

 

[Tirefryer]

Hmm, must have been the auto quad cab.

 

[trdspectacoma]

yeah I think it might be the quad cab or a new driver.

 

[djcreeper]

It was automatic and it had a 2 people in it.

I was at Bandimere Speedway racing my x-runner and there was two regular cab SRT-10 Rams there and they were only running one second faster than I was. I was running 15.9's and they were running 14.9's. So, even with 500+ hp they are not mush faster then us in the quarter mile. Lots of HP and no traction still equals a horrible run.

So if you were superchaged- I bet you would make a lasting impression

I tried catching up to one driving to New orleans but traffic never let me catch up.... Probably better any way with the traffic..

But I did hurt someones feelings in an srt-4

They are 13 second trucks (Reg cabs), and are capable of getting traction with the right driver or tire, that seems a good bit faster than mid-low 15's.

Obviously the track could be the issue here if both trucks are running about a second slower.. Altidute and temp could be a the culprite

point? track times are like dynos, so many variables. ive got a 14.8 s/c'd slip. you really think i would have only finished half a car infront of you?

 

[Gumby]

If I get a chance I'm going to the track once I get my truck back.. I know I should wait till after sema but now I'm curious. Its nice and cool here and I know some people running what i think is faster times then they should be

 

[Jonathan]

im going wednesday! i am going to the slow ass track again, but dxr is going, and thats a good mark since he ran a 14.0 ( i think) a few weeks ago with a best of 13.8.

So about a second faster then stock with the urd s/c

[dakinisbatman]

not bad for a 25,000 compared to a 60,000 dollar truck!
