13.40 with a 09 automatic and 3.06 rear gear all stock. I also have a 09 six speed manual with 3.92 rear gear and feel of the pants it will whoop a$$ the automatic car. Track will have a test and tune mid march and I will be first in line to find out.

Yes, I had to beat them up to get a good deal. I talked to the General Manager all the way down to the "car wash Boy" until they FINALLY relented.

It's funny, MATT DEAN (parts mgr) was the person that drove my car over to the Pomona Fairplex for the NHRA finals where they had it on display. So, I was asking him how it drove and shifted etc about a week before, unaware that I would eventually OWN it!

I have had it about 3 weeks now and LOVE it. I have had other nice Cars before and have driven a few late model corvetts and I am VERY HAPPY with this car. I think it is a keeper. With Chevy's "Employee Pricing", I in fact could have had a very nice Corvette for what I paid for this car. But, MOPAR is in my Blood and I would much rather have a DODGE.

PS: Sorry about the hijack.

I just bought the wife a new R/T automatic for Christmas. I don't think she will let me race it at the track though. Maybe if I let her drive the Duster she will!!!!!!

Can you guys post trap speeds too? E/Ts are almost useless with traction/driver differences...

Mine ran 13.12 @ 108+ stock. I ran it 3 days after I bought it at Dragway 42. I lowered the rear air pressure to 20 psi and took the air filter out. That's it.

Please excuse the RT's....I am used to a car with a 1.3 60'

Luckily that was only a time trial...and the first trip down the track in the car. I am not sure why he got out of it.

I left on the last yellow like in my Demon...and it just did not go. All in all, I am sure I looked like a dork pulling .39 lights.

Interesting how the R/T's numbers I'm seeing posted are better then the SRT8s numbers posted, not only here but at other sites also. What's up with that?

Some of the difference in performance can be due to the driver, especially with the stick cars. For example...take the average racer that runs a stick, let him make a pass in the car.....then take a master stick driver like a Ronnie Sox (God Bless) and most likely Mr. Sox would have out driven the average driver in the very same car producing a better E.T.

Then there is the air temperature, altitude, etc. that can vary performance levels.
