Dodge Demon Drag Races Ram SRT-10, Obliteration Is Instant

The Dodge Challenger SRT Demon is the kind of car that will easily draw attention at the drag strip, with virtually everybody being willing the battle the Mopar king. And while we've shown you tons of drag races involving the HEMI wielder, this time around we are here to see the thing duking it out with a very different type of Dodge.

You see, the opponent of the Demon is a Ram SRT-10. And, judging by what we can see in the piece of footage at the bottom of the page, which documents the adventure, the driver of the Demon was just as surprised as we are when he found out that the Viper-engined pickup truck is willing to race it.

Of course, with the Demon we have here coming in stock condition, everybody out there knows what the 840 horsepower tool is capable of. So you would expect the owner of the Ram to have fitted some serious extra muscle under the hood.

Well, we're not aware of the SRT-10's condition, but we can tell you that the drag race clearly speaks of the bed wielder's form - keep in mind that, in factory trim, the crazy pickup we have here is a 13-second car.

As for the Demon, Dodge claims that the uber-Challenger can play the 1,320 feet game in 9.65 seconds. Nevertheless, no owner has managed to go below 9.8 seconds to date, with the machine easily falling into the ten-second category when drivers aren't quite on top of their game.

Sure, the aftermarket realm hasn't been resting, which is how we recently ended with the craziest Dodge Demon out there. We're talking about a twin-turbo example delivering 1,400 horsepower and packing a 600 lbs carbon fiber diet - the beast can play the 1/4-mile game in the 8s range.

Those of you who happen to be in a hurry should note that the drag racing stunt mentioned above awaits them at the 7:56 point of the video.
