Ok so my girlfriends sister has a 2000 Durango R/T, who do you think would win...
2000 Durango R/T Auto V.S. My 2001 Accord EX Stick AEM Intake, GReedy EVO2 Exhaust...
I think she would take me off the line, but by top end 3rd gear i think i would be passing her.

My '03 Camry (I4, XLE, the heaviest trim), against, well, anything? 
It's funny because I actually get "challenged" on the highway a lot at night, probably because I keep my car really clean so it looks shiny under the lights, and it has fogs, which seem to attract eager racers like mosquitoes. Of course, I never really push things too far--I don't want to hurt the engine or bust a tire on a CA-road pothole...Besides, this car has an absurd amount of body roll. Oh yeah, and it has no go past 2nd gear. XD

The CRX si JDM would smoke you and your girlfriend. I think you could take a non-si, but even that would take your gf's car.

By R/T do you mean the one with the 5.9 liter, 245hp, 345 ft lb torque engine?
That vehicle is a good bit over 4000 lbs, but has massive torque at low rpms (3200), so I think it could be a toss up.

Yeah the R/T 5.9 Liter, i think it would be a good race. Her truck is pretty powerful off the line, so she might take me at first, but i think i'd get her in the end.

I think it all depends if you get a good launch and you don't miss any shifts. I doubt she knows what rpm's to take the dodge up to with the brake pedal held down to get a good launch in the automatic she has. No doubt she would still beat you off the line anyway. Heck, when I had my 90 Mustang GT 5spd, a had a few guys that always wanted to race me in theor dodge trucks. One was an auto, but he had push button 4wd so he would drop it in 4 low to launch, then cut the 4wd off when he gained some speed. he always beat me off the line. But of course I was only 16 so many times if I tried to race anyone I always lost off the line cause I would sit there spinning my tires. I always caught up within around 100 feet or so though.

I think the Honda would win. Durango's just dont have any top end. You get those RPM's up and you'll pull away....

Well that's a broad statement. I'd bet anything that Chio's civic could beat it ...... rather, tear you a new -hol!!!\
LOL, not hating, just playing .... but realize that there are some really fast cars out there and the # of cylinders makes much less of a differance in predicting how fast a car is than it did 5 or 10 years ago.
Example 4 cylinder cars that are faster than your old truck: Evo, Sti, SRT-4, Civic si, R32, Elise, Exige, MS3 .....

Well guys I raced a 4x4 Chevy 1500 or 2500(not sure) tonight in my 240sx. It was a newer model(03-06) with the 4 doors and lift kit. I dont know if he had the 5.3 or 6.0 liter Vortec in there. I was at a red light and he pulled up beside me and raced his truck up 2-3 times. His windows were tinted so I couldnt see inside and his truck was way too high anyway,lol. I was thinking, WTF does this guy want to race for? I normally wouldnt start a race from a busy intersection in fear of cops, but I said ok im going for it. Some rich kid in his daddys truck who needs to feel embarrassed. He had me by a fender at 30 mph, but I gained it back and was ahead by a fender and still passing him at 55mph when I had to slow down because of a car in front of me. So, I won. I was satisfied because I never revved over 4500RPMs while I was shifting. Weight difference can make up for any HP difference!
