Default Got my *** handed to me by a 2nd gen

So the I was going shopping with the wife Saturday. I turned on to the feeder road and at the same time a beat up lifted 2nd Gen turns the same direction as me in one of the other lanes. I glanced back and saw coal rolling from his pipe and said , Oh no you ain't!
So I punched it from about 20 mph. That was when I heard his exhaust LOUD as hell. It was a standard and I could hear every gear he grabbed. My wife was yelling WTF are you doing but I couldn't hear her. We were coming up on slower traffic and I was gonna have to let off of it but that didn't matter as he flew by me like I was sitting still!! Another 50 feet and he would have blown by me anyway. Damn my truck feels slow now.[]

Yes , I had level #5 90 hp loaded at the time. I know it's bad for the tranny but was just putting around for a few days testing fuel economy. I'm sure the tranny was slipping a little but not enough to suck that bad. Must have been just one hell of a fast 2nd gen I guess.

??? doesn't take what I did for a 3rd gen to beat a 2nd ! FYI, the only payment on my truck is for the truck... I wouldn't suggest to anyone to load up a CC to build their truck. You might have to replace something that hasn't even been paid for yet[:'(]
