I am actually not sure if it was stock or not. It looked stock under the hood, but in between runs, they had a computer plugged into it messin' around with it.

I know the window sticker says 500/500 but does anybody know what a SRT-10 RC is actually putting to the ground? My next door neighbor has one but I've never been in it when he jumps on it.

Sounds like you need to trade rides in the passenger seat with him....

I'm curious what they dyno as well.

I like the SRT-10's since they came out. If I had the extra cash, I would get a RC. If they were AWD, I would have bought one instead of my SS Silverado and saved the time and $$$ it took me to get into the 12's.

FWIW - I have seen RC SRT-10's only do high 13's numerous times at different tracks. Props to this guy for hitting 12's! The SRT-10 is awesome in my book, even if I am a bowtie guy.

Neighbor took his SRT10 RC to the track last night for the 1st time. (1/8 mi.)
The first run wasn't pretty. 11.00. But by the end of the night he had it down to 9.07 @ 77mph. He said it would bog down on takeoff even when he was tach'n up to 5500 at the tree. I think he's dropping the clutch too quick but thats just me. He said the clutch was starting to smell so he quit running after the 5th pass. Just thought I'd post it up. What does that convert to in 1/4 numbers?
