Ran an 08 Silverado

Post by mahifish » Fri Jan 25, 2008 3:52 am

Ran a 08 chevy silverado Z71 today. the guy was doin 35 in a 50 mph zone. I dont know if he was trying to be a dick or what So I changed lanes and gave it. he also proceeded to stomp it before I could even reach his rear bumper. Still pulled a full car on him before I let off at about 75-80. I think I definetly shocked him a little bit!

Bouahahaha. Nothing I enjoy more than smoking a truck/SUV, I loathe people who drive that kind of vehicle without having the need for it.

my friends girlfriends dad owns a 6.0 turbo diesel, she drives it all the time. I've been in it its pretty quick but I think I could run it pretty good with my stock SOHC,but with someone who shifts 1,2,3 and brake pumps I'd probably take it up the ass from it.

We've got some powerful diesels over here in Europe (330d, Golf TDI 150) but they cost much more than their gas counterparts which means they are rarely seen and even less raced.

Yeah my next truck is going to be a desiel! 02' duramax they can be amde to go pretty quick with just a few minor mods. My buddy has a 94 mustang with the 5.0 pretty basic bolt ons etc.. Got stomped by 3 or 4 cars up to 90mph by a duramax. Quite impressive to see what those desiels can do....

Diesel have an advantage over gas in their massive torque, however the NVH levels and the pollution outweigh the advantages IMHO.
