THERE I WAS. IT WAS A COOL TUCSON NIGHT. I WAS COMMING FROM MY DADS. AS I WAS COMING UP TO YHE LIGHT I SEEN A NEW DODGE V8 4X4 AND A LATE 70'S EARLY 80'S CHEVY. THEY LIT IT UP AT THE LIGHT. I THOUGHT I WOULD JUST LET THIS PASS....NOT!!!!!! THERE NEEDED TO BE A FORD IN THE MIX. AT THE NEXT LIGHT WE ALL LINED UP SIDE BY SIDE. THEY WERE BOTH THROWING REVS. WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN WE ALL FLOORED IT. MY TRUCK GOT OFF SLOW. YOU 4.2 GUYS CAN RELATE.THEY HAD ME ABOUT A HALF TRUCK LENTH FOR THE FIRST 50 FEET. AS SOON AS MY TRUCK CAME UP ON THE PIPE I WAS GONE. AND I DO MEEN GONE. I WAS SO FAR AHEAD OF THEM THERE HEADLIGHTS LOOKED LIKE TWO CANDELS IN THE DARK. I WAS VERY IMPRESSED. I WILL ADMITT. I DO HAVE A LOT OF EXTRAS UNDER THE HOOD, BUT I STILL LEFT THOUGHS BIG V8'S IN THE DUST. DAMN I LOVE MY TRUCK!!!!

 

I have a auto trans, and it is a supercab. I have a whole sh*t load of mods in my truck. the best two that gave me the big jump off the line is the poweraid throttle body spacer and a Jacobs Ignition sytem. If you realy want to see a real noticable difference in performance they are the best. In my opinion ofcourse. They will almost eliminate that bog off the start. The bog at low rpm is about half of the normal. The tourqe shoots way up there.

 

I'm in tucson also.where did you race these guys, maybe we can hook up sometime.

What have youv'e done under the hood of your truck. And good job at taking on those other trucks! Oh, by the way, Is your truck a supercab and which transmission do you have? Taxman

 

What do you plan to do to boost yourself up at the start? Do you powershift? If so, which gears? How many RPM's do you shift at??

Thanks

 

I raced them on Golflinks and swan going east.
