cobra jumped early, looks like the trucks really running strong. Wish theyd throw a 6.2 in the 3/4tons cause my dad has your same exact truck just stock and its amazing what power it always has!

Ya I think it was his first time out in the car. He looked like a younger guy that just bought it. Once he got to 3rd gear he did alright shifting but he was pathetic off the line LOL.

With a few more supporting mods I will be able to take him no problem but for now I am not to upset for getting beat by a car that is supercharged stock and has 550hp and weighs half of what my truck does LOL

Yeah i really am impressed with the times your putting down. The day my dad got his truck i followed him up there with mine and the first light we came to he blew me away. I knew it would happen being my 3/4ton is heavier and the power isnt even close but it was amazing how much of a sleeper they are. The highway pulls were a little closer but you cant beat that 6.2. But im sure your truck will be blowing the doors off cars like that soon cause you put up really impressive times for a truck that is being built and perfected over time!

There's a certain government that says if you ignore the debt, it will just disappear....

So what's next after you get the credit cards payed off? Nitrous? Or are you going to open the engine up and start upgrading the internals?
