GM Vortec Max, your thoughts?
I came across this today and found it interesting:

2WD Crew Cab Silverado with 6.0L HO Vortec Max, 0-60 in 6.7 seconds. 1/4 mile in 15.1 seconds. That is 8/10ths of second faster 0-60 than a QC Hemi or CC Titan, and a half second quicker in the quarter mile.
What do you guys think?

Chevy only have the leg up for now, by next year the Hemi and Titan will be updated and crushing the Maxx. Somehow i think next year is going to be the year of the Hemi and it will boost ahead of Titan and Chevy.
Maybe they just did this for a press release (or out of stupidity), but if you look closely at the picture, it is a GMC SIERRA not a chevy silverado. I guess GM finally realized that the chevy front end looks like $hit so they posted a picture of the GMC, which in my opinion still kind of looks like a truck. But grow some GM; show the truck you are advertising.
...dont know what i raced the other day...but i came to a light in town where a silverado (ext cab) already was...i pulled into the right lane and happen to glance over to see the guy and his passenger give me that "I have a chevy and I'm better than you" look. he revved his engine indicating he wanted to hook up...i answered that by doin a powerbrake burnout..... when the light turned green i let him react first and gave him a hood length head start. when I hit my throttle I imediately pulled him and passed him...the lookon there faces when i passed them was priceless...bein debadged he probably didn't think i had a hemi... when we came up to the next light we rolled down our windows an he asked " that thing have a hemi?" i just nodded my head...we waved each other off and went our own way.... I OWNED him....
well if you wanna play with the big boys find a way to fix your hemi cause this friggen computer crap needs to get shut off! im not joking my dad was taking off from an intersection pinned it and it spun the first then come second it bogged the engine down under 3grand it wouldnt tack up... wTF!
will a chip fix all this limiting ****?

..I got the Superchips Flashpaq for my Hemi. Not sure of all the bells and whistles but the one thing it did do was over ride the Torque Management feature that we all hate so much.... Now when i go wot it holds gear til the high rpms and thats a huge benefit...
