I'm not saying you're a liar, but I highly doubt it.
Our 2.3CLs are tagged as sluggish cars. 0-60 in 9secs. Enough said!

My best friend has a RAM 1500 HEMI V8. This monster has 350h.p. leashed to it. It can slam a 0-60 in 8secs.
The chevy Silverado 1500s are only at 300h.p.
I don't think we have to boast about beating some crappy pick up trucks. We drive compact cars for God's sake.
But I still demand visual proof on your 2.3CL "smoking" a RAM 1500 HEMI.

FYI, Dakotas are shitty trucks, with horrible engines, with very poor shifting and loose torque.

I would like to hear things like: I smoked a VW Golf GTI VR6, or an Impreza... something along those lines..... NOT!

Well for one, I never said I beat a Hemi. I said I beat a full size CHEVY truck. When you are on a track, or anywhere for that matter, A LOT has to do with the driver. When I raced the chevy, if the race would have been another 50-100' longer, he would have beat me. When the light turned to green, I had like 2 lengths on him because he couldn't hook up. He just kept spinning his tires. So he spent the whole race playing catch-up. IF HE WOULD HAVE KNOWN HOW TO RACE, HE WOULD HAVE SMOKED ME!

I don't have any proof other than a couple witnessess. And besides, what do I get out of it lying to you about whom I have won/lost to. None. Maybe you should learn to read rather than trying to find flaws in someones story. I was just telling people what I have beat. Do I give a rats ass what you think? No...

About your complaint about the Dakota. I have 2 friends and my father that have them and they are great trucks. We have taken one more places than I can even imagine. We have serioulsy beat the crap out of it and it just asks for more. The engine is a 4.7 liter V-8. Which is the same engine they put in the full size rams, durangos, Jeeps and many other Chrystler products. So its not a crappy engine with crappy torque.

Maybe you should do your research and learn how to read before you start spouting off at the mouth.
