    Default another kill

    beat a dodge 5.9L r/t tonight. Mods wise, I dont know if it was modified, but it was well cared for and had smoked lights, tinted windows, couple decals on the back. It was black. at a highway junction he tried to leave me at the light taking a left and I was right next to him while he tried to pull away. I think he realized I wasnt going anywhere and slowed back down. I get up next to him and I can hear him punch it so I get on it. I went from 2nd to 3rd, and by 4th gear and every gear I went into I would keep creeping on him, had maybe a car length on him at the end. We were at about a 50mph role. He gave up at about 90-95mph. Then we rolled up at the light and he tried again, but I was ready and pulled on him well before he could get to the merge up ahead.

    Was fun because he was actually able to keep up, most people see my car and think its slow because its old. I am shooting for low 14 quarter. A 3SGTE in this little beast would be crazy. I only have a filter adapter and a downpipe back cat-less exhaust system. I have a few goodies to put on...

    I borrowed a friends v1 for my little trip, and it paid off because I picked up a faint IO K band about 20 seconds before being IO by a WSP. I sure would have been pissed to get a 10mph over ticket when my v1 is going to be here in 2 more days.

    I have kicked those things asses in my Trailblazer.

    The Durangos are very slow and very thirsty right out of the box. You race one to 90 from 0 and he has to stop at 65 and fill up with gas.

    7 seconds 0-60 isnt slow. but its not fast. His aerodynamics at that speed probably kept him down. Although, we got on it at like 15mph rolling to the light and I smoked him at the end of first gear, then he gave up, and coasted back to psl.

    That really is horrible.

    And it had a V8 to?

    With my tune and intake, my projected 1/4 is 15.6@87. In a heavy SUV with an Inline 6.

    He was in a SMALL pickup with a V8 and more mods.

    Holy crap thats horrible. I mean, just THINK about it.

    Chevys seem to have the quicker engines. Or is that just me?
