LOL was out toying around with nothing to do the other day and happened to be on the "strip" when a white dually cummins goes flyin by me at an intersection....kept rolllin coal all over me and i just let it be till i got a break in traffic, ended up goin down a side road, blew a little more on me, finally got a clear road ahead, got beside em, let him roll first, and i just a started walkin! :Thumbup: turned around to go back to the strip and he comes up beside me at a light and says "man, what all you got done to that thing..?" i said just a tuner..:Thumbup: then tries to race me from a dig (6sp, whatta idiot!) well i was in the right lane and ended up hittin snow and roastin tire registerin 90, look over and he has total traction slammin through the gears sittin dead even beside me...i let off and was only goin like 40 :damnit
so then i get beside a guy that knows the other one sayin i barely beat him...wanting to race me for $500....guy has run at the local track and i knew what he was running (8.85-9.10) so i toy with him a little, stop at a parkin lot to BS and still wantin to race me for $$...so i asked what his truck runs and plays dumb so i told em ive seen it run and that i will race him, beat him, but i wont take any money...then say the black beauty runs 8.30s :woot: shut him up quick! :nunu:
i usually dont on the street...its more fun to roast tire beside someone and then catch and walk away from em....also i think i have a vacuum leak so unless the hubs are locked it wont stay in 4x4...always locker in at the track tho! :Thumbup:
One night i got passed by a couple of teenagers in a Duramax. Don't know what it had done to it except exhaust. Anyways some how managed to weave in and out of traffic and get up beside them at a red light. (Oh those precious moments) We'll he knew what was up when i pulled up beside him nothing even had to be said. When the light turned green I got in it a good bit but not all the way I was in 2wd and spun through 1st, 2nd and 3rd before I finally got traction and even with all that he never pulled ahead of me by an inch. Well when I did start hooking well it was pretty bad. A few lights up they pulled up beside me and I've never seen a couple of guys more happy to get blown away than they were there eyes were the size of saucers. They were laughing saying man you got it don't you. I replied "I try".
LOL, that was a nice kill! i agree, precious moments when you finally get a red light by somebody that thinks they want some! haha. most of the time they get a jump on me when im spinnin, but after i finally catch i jump up and get to walkin! haha. thats what happened with that trans am last night! haha. oh ya, a guy called last night wantin me to run a charger...what yall think?
they that much faster than stangs and cams?? i run then from a dig all the time and walk em in 2wd...dude is wantin to run me from a dig 2wd no pane...i said pane comes on if im gettin pulled no matta what! haha
do we have more top end in 2wd than 4x4 because of drag or bout the same..?
plannin on it! ill race you...and i wont cry too much...i mean, it'll be the first time ive been beat by a chebbie....actually by even another diesel i think (no modded up ones around here...) ill DEF be at ts since its only like an hour away..:Thumbup:
I wish I was close to that...that would be sweet. I would like to run ripmf as well. It would be a good race to because by then I'll have the injectors, pump, and tranny in the truck.
Will be nice to meet, and have some fun will have baby with us looking at renting a tagalong rv and staying at the camp grounds, You might have a good chance at out running me in the 1/8 my truck with the new turbo likes the 1/4 to get spooled up and really running good, only run 8.02 area @ 88 mph in the 1/8 might have a loser converter by then and can get more boost out the hole.were abouts are you HD 250 were driving about 9 or 10 hrs im in maryland
I would probably do it, but we've got a ride coming up in May we are driving 7 hours too. Then we have one in June we are driving 6 hours too. With the cost of fuel right now I can't afford any more long trips with the mods bill I've got coming...LOL

you know that everybody elses trucks arent the only ones that can have more mods added right...? i still got plenty of room to add fuel and air there big dan! i keep tryin to race warren but hes always too busy...and ill gladly run ryne anytime.....just let me know when he gets his built tranny in so i know to spray it! :sly: :Thumbup:
It is easy to do on a 6l from what I read. 190's plus 03 stock turbo plus a crap ton of NX = an 11 second truck. When you going to try that?
