I would say (and Ive driven both) that the bullitt is faster. Yes the R/T has the power advantage, however the bullitt is about 600lbs lighter.


And even if it does come down to .1 -.3 apart (which is almost unnoticeable by the driver) It would FEEL much more nimble and fast.


Ps. check it out, i ranked the SRT 2nd just for you Kev-o

A tick over 13.0 sec. and you're through the quarter-mile. It's a rush, of course, but not overly dramatic. Try the same thing with this pair's predecessors of 1970 or so and you'll find yourself in a bit of a wrestling match. Ain't progress wonderful? Maybe yes, and maybe sometimes it's fun to wrestle."
