The most terrible thing has happened. I just got my azz handed to me by two clowns in a Chevy deisel extended cab. WTF!!!!! It was 9:30pm with 20* temps. I`m at a light and this deisel truck pulls up next to me power braking and spooling up the turbo. My first thought was "are you kidding me?" So I turn down the tunes and prepare to give them the smackdown like I give to everyone else. The light turns green and this mini Mac Truck leaps forward like bat out of hell and disappears. I come out of the hole, fish-tailing with no chance of any bite on the road. I just felt like sharing that with you guys. Feel free to pour the lemon juice over the wounds while they`re still fresh.

It kills me! Right now these guys are somewhere ( ) laughing cause they just smoked a Lightning.

TRACTION! I need some TRACTION!!!!!

 

Those diesels can make a ton of torque if they're modded. But they still stink!

that sucks. buy some nittos

 

Don't feel to bad.
4wd diesel
Frozen pavement
You didn't have a chance.

Now once he hits 70mph, you can blow by him at 120

 

Most likely it had a bunch of mods which is why it took off like it did. Stock those things do like 11sec 0-60

 

You got hole-shotted by 4WD like Menace said. I also raced one of those, and I got smoked because we went from a dead stop and I smoked the tires trying to catch him. He was sporting a 6.0 Liter F-250 with (stacked?) chips, a stall converter, exhaust and boost. I later found out he has run high 12's in that mode.

So don't feel bad. If he ran your race (rolling) you would have pulled him.

 

The freakin thing sounded like a school bus. Shame on me

 

 

Roll into the gas!!! Also, be carefull racing in those 20* temps

 

Just take your A$$ whoopings like a man and laugh about it. There's always going to be something faster. I think that most of us have seen that F350 Crew Cab 4x4 vid where the guy runs a mid 11 second 1/4 mile pass. He was fast, but what a discusting cloud of black smoke that come pouring out of his exhaust the whole pass. On the street, I'd have raced that truck in a heartbeat, and gotten my a$$ handed to me just like what happened to you. Traction really seems to be a big problem with our L's on the street.

 

Yeah, but they'll do that also pulling 10,000 pounds LOL.

 

Jim, you definitely don't want to pull up next to me on a cold night .

 

^^^ ...thats a sweet van

 

Yea i seen in some truck mag they did a test with f350 6.0psd
against dodge cumins and the duramax pulling a 5,000 pound trailer. They did a bunch of tests like 0-60 1/4 and the 6.0psd whooped the the cumins and duramax in both.

 

Do you know which mag it was???
