Wink New Hemi tangles vs the '04

On the way to work this AM, I woke late, so I had no time to waste.
I've seen this Ram before, EC or Quad whatever it's called. It's 1 of the new ones w/. the factory duals cut into bumper.
390 HP is a bit too overcome.

I left lite rather quickly just wanting to get to work. So the next lite, he hits it, & shortly after, I do too. I wasn't sure if he would, but sooner or later figured he'd think I was tryin to run, when in reality, I just wanted to get to work quickly. Neck-neck for a while, & wasn't pullin on him til 80. Dumb for sure in a 50mph zone. I usually only go to 5-10 over whenever I play, no more.

So the next lite I pull to & he's waitin. I'm like OK, we'll see now that u want some. I left on him bad & pulled away.

Silverado wins. Observation: I need more power. Newer vehicles are comin out w/. more power. I couldn't imagine w/. 390 HP how badly I could beat him & others.

hemis suffer from pretty bad driveline loss...something like 20-25%. saw a dyno from a 4th gen hemi and it was right around 300-310hp to the wheels, forgot what the tq numbers were.


it's a good kill, but keep in mind he weighs much more than you, has much more driveline loss than you, was probably turning 20s if it had the factory duals, and probably had no higher than 3.92 gearing....thought dodge started putting 3.73s in all models regardless of rim size, but i may be wrong...4.10s are possible, but only custom from the factory.

if i'm not mistaken a RCSB 4th gen hemi pulled a 13.9X or 14.0X stock
