Ford SuperDuty F-250 Tritin V8

Hi Guys !!!

I had to come back and tell you all about today..

It was great I was Coming Home Today, Driving to a Stop Light, and theres a Kid in a New Used (he just bought it, temp tags, and still nice and shiny) Ford F-250 SuperDuty with that Tritin V8. Well he sees me and waves me on at the Light. . . And being a Nice Ricer I give him the Nod. I was completely expecting to Lose, but here a kid with his new truck driving around with his Girlfreind, so I figure I'll let him show off.

After the turn lanes go I take my revs to about 3000. I had a pretty Crappy Launch, chirping for about 2 seconds. Once I got my Grip. I was Astonished, he was right there With me. Redline to Second, and Boom I'm Nosing Ahead !!! Red Line to Third, and I'm like 2 Cars Ahead !!! I got just far enough to hit the Hazards, at 80mph in a 55 then I slow down, I let him Pass me, and he gives me the "I dunno" look ... I just grinned.

We stop at the Light, and I was Thinking... He must have a Diesel that why I beat him. But I asked Him and he said he wasn't running Diesel !

So I dunno.. I never Thought I could Took out a Huge V8 like that, even though it was Weighed down in that HUGE truck. But he was cool and it was a Good Kill... so I had a Great Day =)

Hope all you regulars are doing well ... and the Newbies too... I'll try to keep ya posted and keep up with the boards !
