A stock 2021 RAM 1500 TRX shows up at the drag strip to do a couple of standing quarters. Lets see how it fares
The first car to take on Dodge's full-size pick-up truck is an E90 3 Series, which does seem to carry some mods. We didn't have the specs of the Beemer on hand
The lights turn green, and the BMW got away first, with the driver of the TRX occupied with the center screen
Despite the pickup driver's poor start, the TRX made up for it clocking in a quicker time of 12.72 seconds opposed to the BMWs 13.45 seconds
Next in line to face-off, the TRX was its Mopar brother, a Challenger R/T Scat Pack
While the TRX is powered with a 6.2 L HEMI V-8 engine, with the Pick-Up truck churning out 702 HP, the Challenger R/T Scat Pack features a 6.4 L HEMI V-8 engine that produces 485 HP
The hammer drops and the muscle car struggles slightly to put its power down. The TRX's driver ,meanwhile had a much better reaction time
The RAM truck ran close to the Challenger all the way to the line. The Pick-Up managed 12.97 seconds, while the Challenger was a shy quicker at 12.77 seconds
For the third and final race, we have what looks like an old 90's Chevy truck. It's certainly got sleeper looks
Don't be fooled by its modest appearance, as this Black Chevy is rocking a reverse hood scoop and some performance Hoosier drag tires
Both Pick-Ups line up at the Christmas Lights for launch
The lights turn green and the Chevy lept forward, the Dodge's reaction time also wasn't that bad
But the Chevy stayed in the lead all the way till the end and took the win. The Chevrolet clocked in a time of 11.60 seconds while the RAM managed 12.65 seconds to complete the quarter-mile
It is staggering to see how far performance pick-up trucks have come. We wonder as to how they'd fare with some mods and performance rubber. Swipe Up to Read More.
