i was cruisin' home the other day and saw a aqua-teal 7.3 crew cab in my sights goin like 12 miles over the sped limit so i manuvered around to get a good seat next to him at the next light.. i don't know what happened i was lookin for badges sittin at a dead stop and the friggin' light turns.. i am at like 700 rpm and the ground is wet so i just no boost launch it cause hes already leavin the light.. i spin throgh 2nd and start pullin away from him half way through 3rd.. ihit 4th and it was all over he went left and i went right at the next intersection, so i didnt talk to him. but my boss knows him and its an auto...exhaust, and he thinks chip and cold air..hes not sure... it was fun though i dont see diesels at the light nearly enough!
now for the be smoked part of this thread, i dont have my gsk installed yet and when i was goin up the highway the other day i was goin like 75 up a 6 or 7 percent grade and a new rabbit 2 dr gti was creepin up on me so i hammered it when he got to my bumper and we ere side by side for a quick second then he walked right away from me.... i recognized him as a mechanic for a local vw speed shop.....i hope hes not stock at least but i was smoked!! i gave up at 90 mph and he tapped the brakes and waved and kept goin.... it was fun though usually people dont get around me on that stretch of highway but he sure did!!!
theres a guy with a tdi jetta that has like 450hp/600tq, he bent a few rods while playing with a few go fast parts, needless to say he doesnt run them anymore
i think it was in either diesel world or diesel power magazines, its just vauge numbers from my memory, but it seems to me that they were very ridiculus... lol LOL
there is a jetta that must make decent #'s here in the twin cities, in my neighbors cummins(2004 CCLB CR boost fooler and smarty all the way up:sly: ) we raced him rolling at 40ish and we held side by side up till 90 and then he was gone, when we got off at the next exit he followed us and we saw the NX tank in the back seat he smiled and patted it and was on his way
