Truck Challenged Part 2
Ok, this race supposed to have happen on the track but he decided he wanted to bet 500 dollars and race on the street something I don't like very much.So this is what happened: We decided to run them 3 times. first from a dead stop. He pulled on me about have truck lenght on the lauch but when my car shifted to second I pulled on him like he wasn't moving no more to about 80 mph he was like 5 or 6 cars behind. Second run was from a 30 mile roll and I pulled on him inmediately so there was no challenged there up to about 90. The last run he said we needed to go faster because he said his truck feels faster up top.lol so we go from a 60 mile roll, he kept up to about 75 and then I was gone took it to about 125mph I don't even know how many cars he was behind by then. It was a good race and I got me 500 dollars lol, I'm so glad cause he was talking **** about mustangs, by the end of the race he was like yourcar doesn't feel as fast so I took him for a drive me driving and my car felt faster than ever. I punched it from like a 20 roll and inmediately went to almost redline barely spun and chirp into 2nd and went in 3rd pretty hard.The funny thing is watching him getting pulled to the seat and trying to get a hold of something ,lol. He was like it didn't feel like that when I drove it, what did you do?ha ha

RE: Truck Challenged Part 2
what kind of truck is it? the trucks nowadays are exceeding 320hp.. but the owners dont really know a whole lot about performance, like 320 is at the crank probably more like 280 at the wheel, then when you compare weight.. might as well have a v6 stang. good kill

RE: Truck Challenged Part 2
I took on a Charger R/T "Hemi" which is well over 300 hp i believe. from a dig, he was done from the instant i connected. all the hemi 1500 dodge's want to race, they lose horribly because they think they are fast with their mufflers, but dont realize 350 hp pushing 4000+ pounds is like a ford festiva towing an f350
