I'm pullin for ya! All the pessimistic people on here talking about getting other cars and what not, what fun is that? No one expects a Dakota to beat a 350 or a supra and that is what's so awesome about it.

Of course though my stock ST will beat anything out there !
Haha thats what I mean. I love my truck. And I would love to see the faces of peopel who think they can win.

The best vid I saw was this Dakota v. Cobra v. Supra...gues who came in first?? Dakota then Cobra then the Supra..

So I know its possible, and it would feel so amazing to win a race like that. I know I want to keep the truck, so its either an engine swap maybe for some big bloc kthat fits with all custom parts. Or Just upgrade what I got now lol...Anyway..Thanks to all you guys who've posted here for me so far!!!

I like some of them, my last vehicle was a 1994 Integra GSR 5 speed. Most fun I've ever had driving a vehicle, not much torque but an 8k redline and powerband that went from 4400 or so all the way to 8 is a blast in a lightweight car that handles well. Only problem is with over 200k on the clock it wasn't exactly "reliable"

Yeah I think that motor would work if you could figure out how to fit it under your hood, lol.

A 540 in a Dakota now that would be cool if you first manage to somehow fit that behemoth under the hood and second get it to hook up, it would probably start roasting rubber as soon as you tapped on the gas specially in a pickup with no rear end weight.
