So on my way back from autocross a quad cab SRT-10 comes flying up behind me on the highway.

"This could be fun" I thought to myself... He got stuck behind traffic so I was able to get behind him, traffic cleared and he took off, I followed. From 70-120 I stayed right with him, but my exit came up and had to pull off.

Needless to say, I was able to keep with him, he didn't pull on me at all.

God I love my XR!!! :rock: :driver:

:hahaha:$45,000 V-10 Viper engine truck who can't pull on a N/A 4.0 V6 (at highway speeds)

i think a well tuned X with the trd s/c, tcai, some headers, ypipe and a catback could beat a lightning :)




....or am i putting too much faith into our trucks :(

If you can beat an SRT-10 I doubt you'd have many difficulty with a Lightning.

Lightnings run mid 13's stock. Standard cab SRT-10s run low 13's high 12's, Quad cabs run high 13's low 14's.

Now remember, I didn't beat him, and from a dig, he'd probably walk on me, but at highway speeds I was able to keep up with him just fine. With a blower I'd catch him, pass, then walk away. :rock:

Ill race you jason!
Ha, I doubt you and your S/C would be able to keep up with me and my N/A XR. :eviltongue: :biggrin:

We should set up something sometime, that way I can see how much of a S/C XR will walk me in person. :top:

I've driven a lightning and I've been in a S/C xr and the lightning is much quicker than xr. Too bad they're all SOHC autos :rolleyez:

Nice sticking with that SRT-10 BTW :top:

To the best of my knowledge, no one here has run 13's on the quarter in an X.
The biggest problem the FI guys are having is traction - more power = less traction.
So until someone produces a timeslip with mid to low 13's, both the SRT & Lightning would beat any XR here.
Megabitez would have a chance, but he has not yet run the quarter, so we won't know for sure.
