800 HP and all they can get is 11.X. WTF? For $88K and 800 HP that should be in the low 10's at least.

Ok that **** is funny. 1st off if Im paying 88k for this thing it better have some different wheels,brakes and a some type of body mods for the damn money. So I went to Hennesseyperformance.com to check it out and I started looking at the upgrades and stuff and they are on crack,crank,k,X,and alot of other hard hard drugs to be asking the prices they are. Ok for the Lambo Murcielago to add 78hp(and I doubt it is to the wheels but even if it was its BS) it will cost you $29,500-LMFAO For the Porsche Cayenne Turbo to add 80hp it will cost you $17,500. Oh yeah and for your Viper SRT-10 if you want a Cold air kit it will cost you $800 and for headers and exhaust only $4200

That **** is funny here is $29k for my Lambo give me 78hp---Hennessey is making some serious coin off of helpless rich ***** that have no sense of what **** is worth. I dont blame Hennessey Id do it too if I could!

800 hp should be good for ATLEAST low tens. But then again it is a Dodge.

"800 hp should be good for ATLEAST low tens. But then again it is a Dodge."

And we should be impressed with 12.6 ??????

The SRT is a nice truck. A lot of you ask "why pay 88K for 11.5's"? Well, ya, you could spend $20 k in a 1800 lbs dragster and go 8's! Alot of what you are paying for is the name SRT10 and Hennessy. And ya, I agree with above, Hennessy is on some hard drugs to charge what he charges...

ya you should be. becasue for a 4.8 that is impressive. for 800 hp those numbers suck. Besides Dodge cant even get the SRT-10 to turn numbers that are that impressive.
All im sayin that for the money you could get alot of nicer things to run alot faster.
