now isn't it? i like the 4.7, but for my money, i'll take the R/t stil :)
traction is TOUGH to get, to say the least :) Go to mparchat.com. there
are 3 or 4 00s that hitthe 14s there, then there is Duner whos stock 98 Club
Cab R/T hit 14.6 bone stock. There are a huge number of 14.7s to 14.9s
running around. I still want to hear actual4.7 quarter mile numbers and
not just (it's faster just becuse...)

I have no idea what magical drag strip all these "Stock" R/T's run mid
14's... Maybe Lion's or Fremont? Oops! They're gone.

All I know is I brought my club cab lamo SLT+ luxo tow barge with a 4500lb
race weight out to the track two weeks off the showroom floor and ran even
or faster than all the stock R/T's that showed. I'm pretty sure I had the
lowest ET of the day for the stock trucks.

Now, I'll admit that it was a really slow day at the track and there was NO
traction. I had way better 60ft times than the R/T's and lower MPH. So,
starting line experience might have played big. The 360's were coming on
with more power. But my truck isn't what we're talking about...
