I lined up 4 times against an SRT-10 Ram friday night. I beat him off the line by 1/2 car length each time. We only raced to about 45-50mph, at which point we were about dead even +/- a foot or two, which means he was gaining on me slightly, but definatley not as quickly as I had expected.

As far as I can tell, one of two things happened, either he wasn't trying (unlikely, since he was the one provoking me by reving his engine), or he was easing into the gas to keep the tires from breaking loose. If the later is true, what good is 500hp in a pickup truck if you can't get the power to the ground?

In any case, if he had slicks on it and/or we raced to a higher speed, I have no doubt he would have walked all over me. Just thougth I'd share.
