2011 Ram Hemi 1500 vs 2011 Powerstoke dually Race

Gotta family grudge match coming up. My father-in-law wants to race his new 4 door Ford dually against my new hemi ram long bed. This will be a quarter mile race. So do I have anything to worry about.

Is the ford stock first off? If it is, I would give you the race, if it's not, I wouldn't be kicking up to much dust before the race or making to much noise cause it could be very close. Clear up that detail then I'll vote

Read the 2nd paragraph under "Prodigious Performance".

But 16.4 isn't bad for a "tank".

But a 2009 Ram with a Hemi went 14.4!

Now it depends on other details of the actual trucks, like weight, gearing, etc.

Now go kick some "dupa"!

Totally stock on both trucks no power adders of turbo upgrades.

FROM EXPERIENCE.....if you let him spool the turbo to build boost during staging...he will beat you. Stage fast and leave and the HEMI will win.

I took my chevy suburban with a 8.1 4.11 gears and cleaned house one day on a bunch of other pickup trucks. I told everyone it was a 5.7. Then some smartalec kid showed up with his girlfiend in a hemi pickup. I left first and before the 60' he was was even. Then i think i must have hit the brakes. He went 14.50 and i did my normal 15.84. Not even close More than 4 cars. Then the punk kid came over and asked if i wanted to run him again. NOT! If the diesel has a bullydog kit it might be a different story. Stock it won't be close.

HEMI FTW, if that diesel is stock it doesn't stand a chance.
