Well no race today, too much freakin rain for the 3 straight week in Houston!!
But I was ready!! After reading ya'll replys I felt a little bit better about the outcome!!

he'll pull you out of the hole and probably have you until 80mph then you should start to come on. they have the gearing to help them turn their 20's, you don't!

if you really want a better outcome, put your stock wheels and tires back on if you still have them. but that is a lot of work just for a ***** and grins race.

 

I know a guy who went from Hemi to 5.3 because he was getting his *** beat by stock 5.3's

 

When it happens, I'll defenitely let ya'll know the outcome!!! Hopefully it's a good one!!!

Mike

 

Yeah, this rain really sucks same here in Fort Worth. Everything is soaked. Wish you luck with the race. Even if you lose you we all know you don't have the 345 base horse power that "HEMI" supposedly has. You will hang pretty good for a stock truck.

 

Some people that own Hemi (and I dont mean all) think that they really have something fast. I had a guy pull up next to me in a EX cab 4x4 1500 with a Hemi @ 30mph, He just didn't look over at me but he turn his whole upper body and stared at me. So I let him have the jump until the bumper of his truck was at the front of mine. I punched it at 30 and pulled on him and pasted him really easy. As i was passing him I looked at him and as he saw me pass him he looked down at his speedometer in belief that his Hemi got smoked!

 

I raced a ECSB 4x4 Hemi 1/2 ton, not impressed. Granted my times arent either, but the Hemi is really overrated. We were running in the 1/8th. I was running 10.5's all night(choke,choke) God this altitude sucks. But i was killing him by a sec everytime. I was trapping 68-69.5, he was trapping 62-63. I realize he was 4wd and EC, but hey dont talk to much crap, and we wont say there overrated.

 

Good kill Bluethunder,
I raced my buddy's Hemi Sunday at the track, and I put down a 16.3 and he put down a 15.4. He is a RCSB with 20's. I also raced a QCSB hemi the same day, and edged him out by a truck!! So I could imagine how a 4x4 quad cab would run.

KILLALS1

What are most RCSB 5.3's running down there? I figure this altitude is adding .5-.8 on my times. Atleast I hope its that and not my driving ability.lol

 

I think most of them are running a full second faster than me!! But it is hot as hell down here right now, so I think everybody is seeing slower times!!!
