Default SRT 10 ext cab at the gym.

There is a guy at my gym that just got an SRT 10 Ext cab. Its yellow and pretty bad *** looking. Im going after work and Im going to see if he wants to give it a run after Im done training. Figure it will give me a new baseline. Ive heard they arent that fast. Im worried about trashing my tranny so I figure a low roll would be easier on it. I will update if he agrees, but I may have to sleep on the couch for a few nights if my girl is there.

I'm not sure what they trap. The RCSB ones can trap up to 107mph if they are driven hard though so low 100s should be doable for the Quad Cab I would think. They are supposedly a bitch to launch so get him to go from a stop.

Good luck bro

If im going to get embarrassed should I just wait until Ive done a couple more mods?
Im seeing anywhere from 11 to 9# depending on belt slip (belt is way too long) and I havent retuned since I added the smaller pulley, meth, 212/218 cam, and headers.
Maybe I should wait until I get my serial card on Fri and get at least some tuning done.

I really don't know bro. I just know what the RCSB SRT10s are capable of. The QuadCab still should be an easy 13sec truck unless they just sit their roasting the tires. I'd really only be scared of them from a roll. Just race him with the contingincy that you get to race again with your new mods if you lose. Double or nothing type thing hehehe

I think you're right F8L. I remember not too long ago of a QC 10 posting a 13.6 sec pass in stock trim...I think it was SRT10forums...not too sure. Sounds like they are a little easier to hook in that auto the QC comes with.

Yep... i say take him straight on!! If he hooks those tires hell pose a threat but with no contact no worries. You just need to focus on your launch so you dont spin if you break lose once he might toast ya!! Good Luck and keep us posted... and try and throw on some vids of the whole thing, come on maaan you know where junkies

If they are running that I'll probably get smoked. Either way I'll give it a shot. If I lose, I'll have some real motivation to get off my *** and get this thing running. I should see 14# with the smaller pulley and Ive got some things waiting to be installed. Shorter belt to ged rid of the slip, EL fans, and maybe some timing if I go to a dual nozzle setup.

Sport Truck had one in their Truck of the Year contest, it ran 0-60 in 6.03 and 13.85 @ 102.11 mph in the 1/4. The specs they had said it weighed 5280 lbs but my QC Ram weighs 5240, I would think it's heavier than me by more than 40 lbs.. The V10 makes 500 hp and 525 tq, they have an 48RE auto trans, 4.56 gears and 22" wheels with 305/40's.

I just saw a srt-10 single cab run two weeks ago a 14.1 @ 102mph. It was the only run i think that he made that day i think. His launch wasnt that bad, he barley chirped them so i suppose he left relatively easy out of the hole. I could see the auto qc trapping under 100 though. I would think that 97-99 would be realistic.
