Default First race in the new truck

Well, at one of the points where lots of little stoplight sprints happen around here, I got lined up with a volvo S80 T6. it had wheels and sounded like it had exhaust on it. I wasnt familiar with the model before last night, or at least i wasnt aware of their performance capabilities. I expected to beat him pretty soundly...i mean, it is a volvo...

but, he crushed me...it was barely a race.

i didnt google it..i ran to drag times to see if there were stock times for one. sometimes DT has magazine times, and sometimes they have regular people's stock times...

Did you put the sticker in the window that came with the tonneau? It is worth 5HP.

That's ok, NOS stickers are 50hp per. Fill the entire bed with TV's and subwoofers that's another 400hp or so, those little mini canisters of NOS they sell in the beverage fridge at autozone are worth 200hp for every one you pour in the tank, you'll be sitting on 3,000 hp in no time!
