I ran a Daytona Charger or whatever they call that ugly assed thing with the stripes and spoiler. It was just before Christmas, 20 mph roll, beat him by about 1-1 1/2 lengths to about 80. My gear spacing kills me, wish I had one of those newer 6 speed a/t like the Escalade gets.

The thing is though.Who's to say the R/Ts I saw were stock?Believe me those SRT-8s will move for a 4 door.Ntm the one I toyed w/ punched it at 70mph and barely pulled.

oh I know the srt8's move for sure. The R/T the thread starter messed with was lightly modded though. I am sure the R/T's you messed with wer emodded a bit though because of your mods. Stock SRT8's run low 13's. If any of you have seen that king of cars show I bought my truck from that dealership and chopper the gangster dude in the show owns an 06 charger SRT8 that is supercharged with a crap ton of other stuff. 600 to the ground so that car will fly haha.

I know the SRT-8's move out pretty good but, what does a R/T run at the track on average?

<--Just curious.

1000 rpm? My truck doesn't even move yet. That's barely off idle.

Sorry but it was definitely NOT a R/T.
