e light finally jumped to green. He let 'er rip, and I gave him the first five feet, then proceeded to wipe that Cheby 350 up and down 6 city blocks. Now I only wish I had a '98 R/T (insert drool here...) as I probably would have beat him by about 3 blo
cks, instead of only 1. I probably could have stretched it even farther with an auto (shifts faster, especially in a pickup). And this is PURE stock '97, though I'd like to entertain the possibility of some additional low-end torque, a bit better breath
ing at the front end might help I'd imagine. Anyhoo, felt pretty damn good, beating the pants offa some souped up Cheby 350 (2wd, shortbox, pickup) in my mighty stock '97 Dak.

Isn't it nice to kick someone's a@@ at a redlight in a mighty Dodge? I do
it all the time in my present ride a completely stock LWB '86 Dodge Ram
4X4 Auto, can't wait till I get my Dak, I'm sure it will really kick ass
since it's a lot lighter.
