Ok. Here's the deal. A guy at work just picked up a Ram SRT10 NightRunner. I think its an '06. Its got a CAI, headers and exhaust. He's not sure if the previous owner had a tune in it but the dealer claims NO. Everyone at work want us to run. BAD. We both can care less but I am curious. Would I take him? A part of me is itching and wanting to run him.

No weight in the rear of those things and no tune.

I had a SRT10 but it was a Quad cab. The regular cabs are naturally faster of course but still not going to take the Jeep. From a dig you'll pull hard on him. From a roll it will be closer but he still has very little chance.

Thats what I thought. I just needed the extra push. Lol. I'll catch him on the road one day if we leave at the same time.

from a roll i pulled on a reg cab srt 10 untill 170ish, the quad cabs are de-tuned. A guy i work with had a quad cab and traded it in on a srt8 jeep because he was dissapointed with the truck.

There was 1 at our track running in the 1/8 mile with drag radials, but not sure if he had a cai and tune and he ran 8.40 in the 1/8.

Mine ran pretty good. I had a tune, exhaust, and CAI. The biggest issue with the QC, except for weight, was the transmission. The automatic is dodo. I went through them like Tiger goes through ho's.

You can take him np from a standing start. From a 60mph roll it would be more interesting but you would still probably beat him to 100mph.

There was one at the track last week with a blower running 14.5's vs my N/A 14.4's. You should be able to kill him at any speed.

Well, I wouldnt go quite that far :D

Although in order for an RC to get any farther than high 12's they have to run slicks or DR's at the track.

My RC ran 12.3-12.4's on motor and 11.4-11.5's on spray...but it wasnt stock ;).

With his mods with a decent DA and a good driver pull a 13.1 ish.

If he has the stock shifter, there is a 80% chance he will miss third and it wouldnt matter anyway.

Ok, my brothers. Thanks for the push. If it comes up again, I'm gonna trash talk and bring the pain. Lol. I'm going to have to keep my video camera in the glove box. Lol.

I believe though that the SRT10 in the truck is tuned towards torque? I have heard a lot of things good and bad about them, but the Jeep should take him off the line regardless of if it catches up later... (and it's a truck, it's huge, and it's not exactly aerodynamic, possibly worse than the Jeep in this area, that would give an advantage). I DO think though that there have been some youtube videos of these kind of match-ups. I will do some hunting and post what I find. :)
