Man...

Nice kill RTKILLA

Ever since I got my chip, the only way I could get one to race WAS from a 70 roll, and thats only happened with 2 different Vettes.

The first time, with Brian_K, and another 200 pund friend of mine, and the guy just inched away barely. We went to about 90-95 and he knew better than to run me from a stop.

The next time I was with just one person, and it was neck and neck to 100 or so. I know the first was an automatic, I think the same with the second.

Do I love this truck?

I had a dream last night I was washing it and at the same time my apartment complex was starting to burn down. There was no way in h*ll I was giving up the hose to fight the fire.

LS1's go down quite easily. I only had a couple mods and beat them at the track constantly. There are fast ones. But its run what ya brung and not everyone is gonna know how to drive. I AM DAMN SURE MR RTKILLA BEAT THE HECK OUT OF A VETTE.

I ran a late model vette with my 99 from a dead stop at a red light to a little more than 100. It was on 1/9 by Newark airport for the people who know the area. It was bumper to bumper, so who's to say who won. But my 01 is a lot faster than the 99, so for me to run a vette, atleast one thats as slow as the last one that i ran, I would kick its assssssss. HaHaHaHa. So yes my dear LS1 friends, be afraid....be VERY AFRAID of pickup trucks

RT,
I look at my L the same way... It's funny because i am not one to enjoy a vehicle a year or more later and the L is like getting into a new vehicle everyday... I am however in withdrawl because my truck is in the shop getting the intercooler fix... I do have a rental Sunfire and i am going to find some Imports tonight...LOL!!!

Later, Justin

I can testify too

My first road kill was a C5 vette. This guy passed me on the Dallas North Tollway and was obviously wanting a little zap from my "L". Merged on to westbound 635... he was about 8 cars ahead of me at that time and he nailed it.

Within a mile I was all over him, came along side and the dude wouldn't even look at me. Oh well...

They do go down and it's cool when they do

Had a 2002 Z06 at the stoplight the other day and I was ready... nothing happened. I know he would have handed it to me on a plater... didn't matter though... just wanted to see how fast they really are.

I love North Dallas (read Plano - Frisco). Big expensive toys paying homage to a pickup truck
