Yep you read it right, I got my *** handed to me the other day by an F150, but it was SOOOOOOOOOOOOO worth picking the fight with him... I mean I knew I wasn't going to win or even come close to it but really how often do you get the chance to run one of these...

okay okay I guess its not technically a Ford F150 its technically a supercharged Saleen S331 based off an F150... Didn't even stand a chance, he was a head of me the second the light turned green and never looked back.

haha thats funny... i bet the guy felt all proud! i winder how it would do against a srt-10? when i was younger my old boss had a total beater car... a 86 cheby nova 4 door 4cyl. id tool around town in that thing and pull up next to porsches and start reving the engine... then id roll down the window(manually) and act all serious and say "lets do this." the light would turn green and he'd be gone and id take off normally cause if i floored it it would stall. haha

 

haha, it happens to the best of us sometimes. but hey, at least it wasnt a chevy. now THAT would have been embarrassing!

 

Dang it man! You had me worried till I read the post! I was thinking a regular every day F-150! I was like , Had to be a fluke! But a Saleen, yeah I can see that....

 

Nah I knew from the get go that I wasn't going to stand a chance, it was more for fun than anything...

 

time for you to get a kenne bell

 

The Saleen Supercharged Sport Truck packs a punch at 450 bhp @ 5200 RPM, and with 500 lb-ft of torque @ 4000 RPM which is due in part to the unique, patented, high-flow Saleen Series VI integrated twin-screw supercharger. Here, air is compressed through the twin screws and then runs through the dual-stage, water-to-air intercooler, which reduces the intake air temperature. With this cool, dense air, the Saleen Powerflash performance calibration system radically increases the power and performance.

^^^^

no wonder you couldnt make it.......LOL

 

How close were you able to stay to him? And there is certainly no shame in losing to that truck.

 

hmm im guessing it was the charged version? I bet it sounded good either way

I dont think it looks that great...those raptors are a better stance for the F-150...I bet an srt-10 would have smoked it (those lightnings were charged 5.4s and an srt could pull away easy)

 

I was at his bumper to about 40 after that he was gone. And yes that sc was screaming. Sounded so nice.
