I'm just barely over stock, but a CAI and exhaust make these trucks sound waaay meaner than they actually are. I might be close to low 13's, prolly still sittin mid 13 honestly. I'm not one of those ******** that thinks my truck is the fastest thing ever. I just like to play sometimes and it's disappointing when no one will take me up on it, ya know? And I'm in Kansas City, KS.

I was at the track this last weekend, a Stock 03L with drag slicks on did some runs, his best run was a 14.11, and he started off at a 14.6, keep in mind this is 2200 ft in the air so the times are off by at least 1/2 a second. But my point is that isn't blazingly quicker then my hemi, without his slicks it would be pretty close.
Heat soak absolutly kills our power. And I'd be willing to bet that the guy didn't know how to drive. That's times for a stock 99-00, not an 03. He shoulda been able to at least hit 13.9 even with the heat, unless he had something horribly wrong with his truck. Mine baselined at 13.83@102. That was bone stock on street tires. I wasn't tryin to get into a pissing contest with anyone, I was just giving you guys some good natured ribbing.

Mid 13's! Sheeet, is that all you got? Hell, I'll race ya! Oh yeah, if you happen to hear (?) a hissing sound just before we do, I swear it wasn't me who let ALL the air out of your tires.

It was a dark blue one, and I believe those are the 380 hp ones. He did pull off for a bit and let it cool down, then started to run better so your probably right, it was heat soaked. It's the same deal with the hemi, doesn't respond well when hot. So really with the elevation and heat, hes got a mid 13 second lightning.

If it was a dark blue, like a dark dark blue, that was an 02 and you're right, that's the 380. So yeah, if he'd been a good driver, he'd have a mid to low 13 sec truck.

Well, Kansas City is a little too far to drive for a freindly contest of speed.... sooooo I guess we can throw timeslips back and forth corrected for D/A to keep things fair....
and I love to give as much as the next guy...
