HEMI vs. SS
 

I drive a 2003 Dodge Ram HEMI Sport. It's a regular cab and RWD. My best friend just got a 2003 Chevy Silverado SS for his birthday. We were cruising and decided to race each other. </P>


Race 1</P>


We were at a red light at an intersection and the street we had to cross was under construction and was all grated up. The light turned green and we took off, he had me immediately because I was peeling out horribly on the road we had to cross. I stayed with him however and my front bumper was even with the line between his front and back doors untill 95 when I started to catch him. At 100 I was alowly pulling on him when he let off. Even though I was catching him I finish the 1/4 at 90 so I would have lost.</P>


Race 2</P>


We were cruising the next night and we pulled up to a red light. He was in the right lane and I was in the left. In the turn lane next to me there was a roced out Honda with four HOT girls in it. I wanted to show off so I told my friend to race me. When the light to the cross traffic turned yellow I power-braked it to 2000 RPMs, my 3" duals were right in their face so I know I had their attention. This time there was not construction or anything, just perfect road. We took off and I had him immediately. It was almost the exaxt opposite of the first race. His front bumper was around the front of my bed until 90 when he started to pull on me. </P>

I raced some punk kid in an Accord the other night after he would get off my back bumper. Did I mention I was in my wifes Explorer? She waved at him through the back window.[sm=owned.gif]

Just the other day, i was driving home(country roads), when a riced out civic pulled around me to pass. He had the fart can and everything. Anyways, he got even with me, with his pedal to the floor. I let him get a little in front, and floored it. Basically when I let up i was about a 1/4 mile ahead. we met at stop sign, and he asked how i did that. He said he was floored the whole time. I told him 5.3 with Flowmaster duels, and K&N air intake, Bye, then rosted them.

Four things make a vehicle fast: Horsepower, Weight, Traction and Driver Skill.Remember,the SRT-10 Ram 4 door has 500 hp and runs the 1/4 in just over 15 seconds.

RE: HEMI vs. SS
 

Not to mention, the SRT-10 is heavy as ****!

1 month ago I bought new generation Silverado CrewCab with VortecMax engine (6.0L, 367hp) and I still unbeatable (Hemi, F-150s, GrandprixGTP, RX8, SLK500 so far:))

...Then come on down here and I'll show you something new...[sm=gears.gif]

RE: HEMI vs. SS
 

When driven correctly an SRT-10 is capable of 13.0 1/4 mile. From the other forums I've read it isn't easy or comfortable to pull those times in that truck

RE: HEMI vs. SS
 

Apparently you haven't ran into a new 5.7L Tundra then, lol! Take notice next time you get one to run ya, as you'll be seeing their tail lights! You better have some goods mods just to hang with one.

Oh ye of little faith....

RE: HEMI vs. SS
 

Is it really that hard for you to digest all the information published out there that shows the great gap in speed and hp that the new Toyota 5.7L puts up vs. the not so close competition? It's great to believe in your brand choice, but your lacking some common sense here! This should help some: Tundra 5.7&gt;GM 6.2&gt; Titan 5.6&gt;GM6.0&gt;Hemi 5.7&gt; GM 5.3&gt; Ford 5.4&gt; the rest of the smaller cubes! Pretty simple I think.

You know this forum is about helping people with trucks fix problems and make their trucks better. We try to make them more dependable and perform better. Most of the people on here don't have a stock truck. It's not like your Tundra is the end all be all truck to rule the world. There is always gonna be a bigger better dog that does more trucks. Whether it be stock off the showroom floor or it has $5000 worth of aftermarket performance parts under the hood. There will always be something better that comes along. Your just making yourself sound foolish talking about how you have the best truck on the market and it's unbeatable.

RE: HEMI vs. SS
 

Whenever i give you #'s, i always mention STOCK. Yes, someone can dump $$$$ into anything and make it fast. Most of you are trying to find out where you stand against a new XYZ brand and i'm telling ya. Anyway most people think a few bolt ons are going to give big results. I've been there and read from others also that a CIA, tune and exhaust (most popular mods) isn't going to give you seconds off your et! Thus a stock 17.5 GM with basic mods will NOT run with the class leading Tundra at 14.7! I'm not saying the Tundra is the fastest truck as the SRT10 is, but it's the fastest 4x4 made today. Now modding it is up to the owners. And, most high hp mods will not make your truck more dependable, just the contrary!

Eat Tundra's for Breakfest

Tundras are fast but I would still rather have my Ram.

Eat SRT-10's for breakfast.
