And my truck isn't that fast for you guys, it's got equiv to 3.0 gears.

i can drop mine to 2nd from a 40-50 roll... you have the same gears to. You should be able to start in 2nd, use your torque to jump 1 car on him then shift to 3rd. I have a feeling his car might start pulling on you above 80.. so you want to get a good start.

yeah i figured he might start catchin up around there too he doesn't have an SI so its not a 200 horse model heres the stats for his car. 2262 lbs, ohc I4, 1.6, 127 hp and 107 torque. they took them up the mountain the other day but i had class so i couldn't go along to see how fast it really is maybe ill have to have him take me out sometime this week to see if it has any ***** at all, i doubt it though. i figure i have double horse, triple torque and double weight so i should be good.
