Texas does have most of all the fastest rams.
i don't dought a hemi's power 1 bit , but if it was a 12's truck he would hear it ither a blower , turbo, looping , the only thing he wouldnt hear would be n20,
no one buys a stock dodge ,chevy,n/aford , and drives to the track and runs
12's speacilly lifted and on big tire
I say race him!
Daytona81 , thats 1 bad hemi you have there mad props!

If he doesn't have gears, cam, or heads and he's NA then you have a real good chance esp if you're 2wd. I haven't had any Hemi rams take me down in my area but then again I have no idea if they were modded or not.

I think you've got him, just don't fall asleep at the launch and you should be fine. But this day and age with nitrous being some what cheap, ya never know. I say do it. Btw, whats your rear end ratio?

I don't know man, those 4x4 Rams are already pudgy bastards. Add the taller tires in the rear without regearing it and you've got one slow moving truck. Maybe he meant 12's in the 1/8 mile?

I beat one in my ECSB when I had LTs and a SHITTTTTTY tune. You never know though, every truck/driver is different. If he starts pulling away on you, swerve into his bed side and spin him out and keep driving.

LMAO, I was going to suggest he pitting him but I wasn't certain how that would roll with this crowd. Your comment does make me wonder if he has one of those factory freaks.

WHAT! you to far north come to the south side and there are alot of fast trucks. Many range from 13 sec down to 11 sec trucks that are daily driver.

As for Hemi there are about a good 8 running low-mid 13's N/A and 2 of them are quad cabs and the rest are single cabs. Then there is my ram that is low 12's N/A, and 11's on bottle and i drive it everywhere except now that it int he process of getting a 6.1L hemi installed. So 11's all motor here i come.

There is a gray quad cab 5.7L hemi that runs 12.71@106 ALL MOTOR up in the 290 area
