Don't know how many truck guys are here but I was just challenged to a pull contest against a completely stock 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 v8 against my 2013 f150 stx v8. Should I do it?

[QUOTE=99 GT vert;8217788]Here is mine from last weekend. First time I have been able to get s clean pass off with the new setup. With more seat time I am hoping for 10.50s
thats a 10.5 mph. just need better tires! i have 2 friends with fox bodys, ones a turbo other is a maxed out d1sc. the d1sc car runs 10.5@133 with full weight just dot approved bias ply tires with street tires he ran 11.54@132 i wish my car was that fast haha.
edit: i should say 10.5 times based on a heavy street car haha, a stripped out car with suspension thats 9 sec mph.

Last race of the year and first for my new 2013 Race Red GT/CS. Don't say anything bad, It's new and I've never raced a 6 speed. My GoPro of first race was hideous...missed 3rd and you can see the other car disappear before me like a rocket. I did 14 passes and got it worked out by that night. It was a full moon, red cars are faster in the moonlight.
Get a bombproof rear, they help: Alloy shafts, FRPP 3.73, Yukon Posi, Swarr-Bar, BMR adj LCB-UCB-PHB-Safety loop/brace, FRPP diff cover, Royal Purple with Friction Modifier, Shaft Master one piece driveshaft with steel braided clutch cable and Barton short throw shifter.
New Clutch and aluminum Fly Wheel for next season.
Launches straight and true spun a little - but P-Zeros, come-on 245x40x19 street tires and they hooked after a little spin. Have the Boss/92tune - getting L/T Cat-x and Nitto's and looking for triple digits next year.

I 084, that might be track code for Short Bus driver?
I don't want to show all the others, lets just say they start-out hideous and slowly get better.
14 passes, that's like a hole year in one day, I was just cruising loops.
