Default Silly buick

One of the guys I work with has a supercharged buick regal that he thought was pretty quick and he wanted to see how it would compare with my truck so we tried them out one day after work. We didn't do anything from a stop but rolling it wasn't even close. We went from 45 and I just left mine in 5th, one time I spooled the turbo against the brakes to about 20psi before we started and I think my tailgate cleared his car in maybe half a second, I thought he didn't start. At work the next day he asked if I had nitrous on the one start...ha ha nope. Whilemy truck weighs7200 without me in it,it also gets over 1000 ft lbs of torque to the ground and makes me smile everytime I drive it.
