Re: Another RAM SRT-10 down
LOL, way to feed the fire.

JayLo said:You don’t need to bash one’s ride to be a troll. You are a troll not just because you don’t share our views but because you joined this forum for the express purpose of carrying the water for an SRT-10 when an actual member was simply posting a kill story. You proceeded to post a bunch of times of “stock” SRT-10 Rams, when no one asked or cared.
JayLo said:As I said before, you are about 4 years late in that discussion. Good job. If there are so many bone stock 12-second Ram SRT-10s then you should advise them to post up on dragtimes.com. Go back and review your post history. I certainly did before I called you on your BS.
JayLo said:Any respect shown by this recent batch of SRT-10 groupies is backhanded at best. Discount the driver of the SRT-10 in the vid… the road looks wet…. Blahblahblah. Just look at the sigs of our humble SRT-10 “guests” (now changed).
JayLo said:I couldn't care less if you’ve done a chrome air intake, headers, exhaust and chip to trap a Buck o' 8. 108mph would be knocking on 11s in a Sy. Good job. Hey, maybe post a full image of your time slip in your signat… oh wait, you already did. Awesome.
JayLo said:Your first post on this board dug up a thread 1.5 months dormant. If someone posted something that bothered you on another forum, take it up with him there, through email or PM. Save me the SRT-10 nutswinging. I like other cars/trucks too (I'm a Ford guy at the core, Mopar being a close second). But you don't see me gushing about how awesome they are here when someone kills one of them.
JayLo said:Unlike you, I never denied not caring. I care not to read/deal with SRT-whatever nutswinging BS or I would have kept playing along. I think your behavior, although not overtly rude, is still contemptible. You have no interest in this forum or our trucks other than to defend your SRT-10. That really is pathetic.
JayLo said:I’m not a liberal therefore feelings are irrelevant in this discussion. I THINK that way based on what I have seen thus far. And I think a lot of what you post is polite sounding, backhanded BS.
JayLo said:You deny ever doing what you did in your very first post, “parading around announcing we are quicker and faster”. More BS called out:
JayLo said:Your first post on this forum:
While that alone is no big deal in my book, subsequent similar posts prove my point (you are trolling). Acting polite and adhering to certain internet decorum does not insulate you from being a troll. You are a polite troll. I’ll give you that.
JayLo said:No, you and the SRT-10 gang essentially told them good job, but “too bad the driver mod was not included” or “were the roads wet?” or “not exactly stock vs. stock”. That’s a backhanded complement and BS behavior. It’s not a requirement of the Kills or Racing Your Brick section for trucks to be stock. Tytilidie never billed his as such, just a lot less modded then than it is now.
JayLo said:It is amazing though, that it took a couple of years for drivers to perfect the launch of a stock SRT-10 and they can now be run a better part of a second quicker (and a couple of mph faster too) in “stock” form than what automotive magazines originally road tested them. (/sarcasm)
JayLo said:Like I said, we don’t have a bench racing section so I don’t know that you would have had much of a substantive response anyway. Believe me, your lack of response is no big loss.
JayLo said:Mod for mod, just about any SyTy is going to mop up an SRT-10 on the track or street. A Sy weighs 3500lbs and change. An SRT-10 is around 5000-5500lbs. When you trap 108mph and run 12.7 at the track with a 5000lb pickup a Sy with similar mph (a stock long block/turbo will go this fast) is knocking on 11s at the track and can still click off deep 12’s on the street. How may stock long block SRT-10s are in the 10s? How many heavily modded ones are in the single digits (fiberglass and tubeframe look-a-likes aside)? It’s the simple physics of weight and traction, both of which you lose in comparison. If you think I am just benchracing, check our timeslips section. All but maybe two are street driven.
JayLo said:Wow. Were my posts really that hard to follow? Let me hold your hand while I walk you through them.

JayLo said:I can understand your confusion in the second part of my post because you only posted half of it. Maybe you only read half of it as well. Allow me:
JayLo said:I assume you’ve raced on both the track and the street. Which one has abundant supplies of VHT and sticky used rubber deposed on smooth cement? Which one has less surface consistency, contours that are random and many times a dusting of sand, gravel, dirt or other such debris? If you think you can cut a 12.7 on the street with street tires, you are delusional. I know I can still run deep 13’s on the street (in the decade old dry rotted tires I ran at the track) because the launch is no less violent and after that it's just shifting from D to OD at 95mph.
JayLo said:You guys are right. I’m sorry I responded the way I did to the SRT-10 guys. Please accept my apology for over reacting.
Stock for stock, yes, I think the SRT-10 will eat my lunch at the track. On the street, I’m not fully convinced, but I’ll be the first to give them credit when/if that happens.
Sorry for all the clutter.
