Default embarassing truck race......

So I was on my way home from the store and there was this early 2000's gmc 2500 messin with me on the highway. I ignored him for a while but I baited lol. So we took off at 60 and he immediately put a length on me. It stayed like that til about 115 then I slowly pulled him in. I couldnt believe what just happened. In my old 4.7 I could beat my buddies 2003 rc/sb 2500 6.0, without a problem. Hopefully it was a diesel but I dunno.......just felt like sharing, no flaming plz. There was noone else on the road so it was my life and his.

You could beat a 6.0 in a 4.7? Doesn't make much sense.

the chevy 6.0 is a very slow truck. i smocked my friends, with my hemi, by probably 8 car lengths in a half mile race and his was chipped. i would say if you lost to him, that he was driven a sleeper or it was a deisel.

The 6.0 chevy's can be made pretty fast really easily. Stock they suck ***** but add a few things to them and they can move

If it was a 6.0 it at least had a programmer. He went WAY past their governed speed lol. Im leaning more toward the Dmax because he pulled like a freight train til about 115 then I was able to inch him back in.
