From what little I have seen of them at the track, I doubt it has a chance in stock trim.

I think that statement is pure ignorance.pitrider said:Who cares what a L owner thinks..just pure ignorance to put down the SRT Ram's..
You answered your own question, glad you have a dictionary for references. If you don't own or haven't driven a SRT-10 Ram, how can your comments be valid.Wikdsvt said:I think that statement is pure ignorance.
Can you elaborate a little on why it is ignorant to put down a dodge truck?
specifically why it is ignorant?
You CAN use any of the following definitions of ignorant...]
you mean my comment about the dodge boys making excuses for the srt video?pitrider said:You answered your own question, glad you have a dictionary for references. If you don't own or haven't driven a SRT-10 Ram, how can your comments be valid.

Just wait until summer and some SRT-10 have been in the owners hands for a few months. Then you will see pure stock times in the 12's which will put any comparision to stock Syclones and L's to rest. I really doubt there will be any competition on a SCCA solo course or a longer road course, even a Dakota R/T will beat a L on the average SCCA course. I've never seen a Syclone on a road course but my bet is a 10+ year old suspension will have problems even with AWD. Maybe on a dirt track!
Your kidding right? You realize that now is the time with the weather being cool that the numbers will be better then in the summer heat....If they don't get into the 12's stock now, I don't see it happening in the summer. Not on stock tires and wheels. What traction? Ambient heat and humidity reduces the engines ability to make optimum hp.Hersbird said:SVT is officially dead.

Maybe you should read those definitions of ignorance because you are uninformed. SVT is taking a one year hiatus because the Mustang is all new, the F-150 is all new, and the Focus will be replaced with another all new car. SVT is what started these factory hot rods, and showed that these things could be built profitably. If it wasn't for SVT, there would be no PVO. With every platform they build on being changed at one time, it makes sense to take the time and do it right. No SVT vehicle has ever come out the same time as the car/truck was introduced. They're usually 1-2yrs. in the making. Congrats to Dodge on the top speed honors. I guess 7mph for 12 grand is good?Hersbird said:SVT is officially dead.
