My guess would be weight and aerodynamics (or lack of).

Idk. I get on vtcoa everyonce in a while & try to do some reading. I would think that 6 speed would be a hand full on the track. I never ask any questions over there b/c they hate hemi guys for some reason which is stupid b/c we are all dodge truck owners but they think they are better. I know a few of the trucks over there are getting built up pretty nicely so maybe soon they will be able to pull off better than a mid 10. They are all concerned about hp & dyno numbers but you can have all the hp in the world but if you cant get it to the ground your just as well to stay home & eat chettos on the couch. They say that they have a complete race truck thats ready for a road course too & can go to high speeds but we dont live in japan or germany so I dont really care.

I'm not knocking that srt 10 but there is just something about them that I'm not sure of thats not allowing the trucks to shine to their full potential

In all honesty I believe if there was a different trans rout for all of us we would be laying down better numbers.

There has to be something up with the SRT-10 cause JMB Performance built one with 1365 rwhp and it only runs a 10.19 when it should be in the 9s or even 8s

Agreed for that hp it should be running high 8's to low 9's

I think it has something to do with traction problems cause stock the SRT can spin the tires let alone a 1300 rwhp beast with slicks can still spin the tires. Somebody needs to make something to add weight to the rear end and come up with a better suspension system so that these trucks(and hemis) can be where they belong

the truck has a whole custom suspension. i know they are still working on the tune and stuff and its not making all the boost yet...

From what I understand he stripped his truck down to nothing, ran those times then put the truck back together & pulled the parts off. Thats just hear say though. He still pops up on dt at random times but no updates or anything like that

No i havent but he knows this forum exist. His motor blew about a month ago so now the truck is tucked in his garage for the winter & he is still in the process of choosing which direction to take it, either building a stroker or sticking another modded 5.7 back in it. As of right now he is leaning towards a 6.1 based stroker & building it for 11's n/a & nitrous only when he needs it. He ended up running a 12.49 w/ the ole 5.7 n/a before it gave out on him
