The best timeslip I have for the Silver R/T is 13.45@102.79/1.90 60' in Las Vegas.

I had it configured for easy low-12's in Spring 2004 but after a series of events (very very very long story) I realized I just wasn't having fun anymore, and removed/sold most of the bolt-ons from the truck and was preparing to sell it and buy something completely different. I was doing some research on the internet to find out how much it would be worth to sell, and ended up finding a relatively limited edition Black '03 R/T with 6k miles on the odometer for over $7k under KBB value. I ended up qualifying for new financing so my combined payments for both trucks ended up within $40 of what I was paying for just the Silver R/T, so I kept them both and now my wife uses the Silver R/T as her daily driver.

The Black R/T has only been out to the track twice, and both times it was run street stock with a lot of extra weight. 15.6@86/2.20 60' is the best I've been able to squeeze out of it thus far, although I did win my bracket at the Truckin' Nationals. After a year away from local events at the track I'm starting to get the itch again, and have started adding some basic mods to the Black R/T - I'm hoping to peel off a mid to low 14 pass N/A in early August.
