Went to see all the cars and trucks go zoom tonight. Best time I saw was a stang that ran a 9.7. I didn't realize just how gutless most of those ricers really are. Saw some Acura's and Honda's run 16's and most were high 15's even with stickers on them. There were only a few running below .15 but one was a twin turbo ZX that ran mid 12's.
The real excitment was on the way home. I sparred with a late model stock Jimmy. Ha ha ha ha ha nothing to say there. A Pontiac Sunfire GT saw me toying with this guy and tried to come to his rescue. We got to a light and I reved the engine up and the truck rocked back and forth and the exaust roared while his buddy stared and glanced over the whole truck with his tounge hanging out. No need to say he was completly destroyed. Within a few seconds he was a several dozen feet behind me and disappearing fast. I have no idea what those dual pipes out the back are for on those GT's.? There only a 4 banger. The Cat has really become very loud so much so my father says he can hear me coming a couple blocks away.
Then to top it off I follow a ricer all the way up this hill untill it turns into 2 lanes at a light.The whole way up the ricer Honda with fancy wheels is going slow so I pull into the empty lane at the red light When it turn green I start off normal which is rather fast and see him passing me engine running high RPM's.
What the fuc... now. I am in 3rd but in the low end of my torque band when I mat rather than down shiffting it so the ricer still gains a little more space on me (one car length). Once third gear hit's around 3,000 rpms the truck explodes and within seconds I pass him so fast the car is a blurr and keep it matted up to around 100mph when the car is almost an 1/8 mile beihind me. then ease off just to have an Integra come flying past the Honda to try and take me on. I slow down at the amber light hoping to line him up at the red but the little chiken shi... blows the red instead. Man what is wrong out there. Do people not realize that this truck is only a super charger away from running with a new late model vet?? Since I got the loud exaust everyone wants to race. So far I have absolutley devestated everything I have taken on all though no 5.0's or Camaro's have paired up with me yet. I know I will have to lick my wounds now and then but it's sure fun pounding the snot out of all the rice wagons I can find with an almost completly stock truck.
Also saw a Dak CC Auto run a 14.3. I heard it's supercharged. I think a supercharger will instanly take my truck in to the 13's but the bloody things cost as much as the whole friggin engine. For now it will have to be the basics but that should be enough for low 14's untill I take the big gulp. I have no times to give you guys for my truck because I just wanted to spend a day and get a feel for how thing operate. Besides it only has 400 miles on it and I want the cold air intake to compliment the 3" Cat back.
