I picked the "any chance I can get" option, but it's more that I'll race people that run their mouths. Trash talking is the main motivator. Couple 5.9 Cummins I've gotten, a Colorado, a 4 banger Altima, couple trash import ricer things, and the occasional random vehicle at a stop light. I've yet to lose to another truck or vehicle that is at least comparable. But I like to race when I know I'm gonna win Gotten raped by buddy's Mustangs and E46 M3's, but that's not even a fair race!

Trucks aren't for racing though. Highway racing in friends' cars on the way to the track is the best. I love catching other guys headed to the track and running 5 wide hearing a group of V8s roar. That's the most fun I can have in a car. My friend's built Cobalt SS with 450 HP at the crank is the ULTIMATE sleeper

I get approached at damn near every light. It depends on how much gas I got and how many if any other cars are around. Safety first or should I say getting first place safely..lol
I have backed off alot with the new paint job and all the other stuff I've done. I don't want to screw it up..lol

I can say i uses to race my buddies occasionally just for the heck of it. It was always down this one road that is about a mile straight stretch, no one usually goes down it.

Got approached in the new city I moved to recent by some Chevy diesel. My 02 wasn't a fast one so i didn't even try, plus it wasn't running right at the time.
