Who doesn't expect to out race a truck? Its a weight to power thing. I don't think there are many big trucks out there that stand a chance...Just my opinion. Good kill though. Be safe.

Let me intorduce you to the world of diesel trucks, with simple mods they can smoke us. I have a few diesels in my area that are modded using Bullydog products, and even though I am i/h/e/p I would get destroyed. Back when my car was stock my brothers 03 GMC Sierra 6.0 liter (gas not diesel) with i/e and mass air flow sensor could keep up with my car. Don't assume, big truck=kill

Until u run across a modded diesel that is putting down 500+ hp and 1000+ ft lbs.. do a search for diesel performance and you'll find lots that run in the 12's. My father in laws' is modded with exhaust, computer, intake and it runs hard. I love seeing something that looks to be the underdog just rip on people. Good kill!!

ps~ back in the day it would be rare to see a modded diesel, but nowadays they are all over the place..just look for the pillar pod full of gauges. :P

diesels are definitely no slouches. also the fact that they can use propane as an equivalent to NOS is a big, cheap, power-enhancing plus for them.

yes, but that's just :ghey: you get a truck for a "certain" use. If you wanna race in that truck, why get a truck.................

a HEMI truck is still heavy............ regardless it could have 400 hp. It'll be 10mpg

The lightning and SRT10 are the only fast trucks. Once i raced a lightning and kept up with him for the most part. If it wasnt for the launch i probably would've won.

Why not get a truck that can be fast?? Especially when you could get a truck that can smoke any of our cars modded, and tow anything you want, doesn't seem to :ghey: to me Back in the day my bro also had a modded Ram diesel he would get 17mpg, not bad at all.

corpsdawg, I would love to see you stay with in 3 lengths of a recent lightning that actually knew you were trying to race him.
