As for being thrown together. That's typically the Dodge way, lots of power under the hood but not alot of refinement in the handling. Always has been, you can see that through the muscle cars past and present, well excluding the viper!!!

yeah what the hell is the point of the rumble bee!

the viper was obviously stock I ran, because there is no way a modded one, I would of been able to hang with from a 75mph roll.

So with this in mind, seeing as a Miata is faster than you, it must also be faster than all SRT models....

LOL not sure on that one either.

Have some guy around town try to mess with me in a bright yellow one all the time.

First time I played with him and only went 1/2 throttle, he was kind of close to the rear bumper. So I think I gave him hope.

Then we went from another 40 roll, and I slammed it... hahahaha

poor guy.

I guess if they come up with the 8 second Dodge we will have to send the bat signal out to Dowheelies...Let him drive his poor little underpowered L to the track and crack some Dodge ass.

The viper trucks are gorgeous IMO. NOT a dodge guy at all, typically can't stand the pig nose, but these trucks look HOT when done right. I've seen a bunch of stock single cabs run 13.2s on street tires. Ain't too shabby.

So a few years ago I was working as a motorcycle mech in So Cal. I had a customer's 999R on my life after he crashed the siht out of it. He saw it without the side panels on it and said, "What? For 30k all I get is 2 cylinders?"

Most of the people out there have no idea what they are buying but figure that they can work on it anyways. (Except for the people on this site!)

Stoffer i went up against a Harley on the road a few weeks ago and not even a comparison along with the Roush version ext. cab...not even a race..now if it's modded it might be a lot more fun...the L just has better power to weight ratio
I sure was refering to you! I'd love to go for a spin and see what its all about. I'm always ready...just not in South FL too often, I'll hit you up when I am in the area. Thanks
