O.K. it finally happened, I called up my buddy and started talkin sh#t to him just for fun. Hes got a Duramax 3500 GMC 4x4 truck with one of those big dollar computers and all the go fast stuff u can put on those truck. I know they run real strong but since no money was changing hands I told him on a voice mail I would give him 10 cars yeah thats right TEN cars :eek: and the break. 10 minutes later he calls back and says "Lets Go". I told him I was gonna bolt on the slicks and we will meet in an hour, but he insisted I run on the Dunlop Qualifiers. :( Of course I agreed and we lined it up on Forest Preserve Drive, he took his 10 then the hit and I chased. I was reeling him in right away because he agreed to launch in 2 wheel drive. We both had to let off before the finish line because of traffic, so we caught the next light and did it again. This time I let him take off across the entire intersection before I chased, and I pulled up but couldnt catch. Finally with the car at 190 degrees we did one more and I dragged him pretty easily at only 17 pounds of boost. The bad news was that after we turned onto Cumberland ave. all I could hear was Knock, Knock, Knock, all the way back to his house. :( I used to give one of the board members grief about his knock detector sensitivity, but now that I blew up and hes still drivin makes we wish I had a knock detector :mad: . Oh well at least she went out layin a smackdown on a friend. Now I can build a motor to whip Prasad and Serg :D ! U two are goin down!!!!!!!!

Well, I guess I'll hold the Stage motor and put in a hot air motor so we can make this race somewhat close. :eek: :eek: :eek:

Sorry to hear about your motor bud, looking on the bright side, you car will be alot faster when it comes out. That Regal looks sweet already, now it will have the "wevos" to back it up. :D

Later

I had to pipe in when I saw this. Those Duramax TURBO diesels are fast as $#!t, i've seen them do 13's constantly. 10 cars is plain crazy. Maybe you didn't know what you were getting yourself into, or maybe thats why you blew your motor. I'm not ragging on you i'm just letting all TR guys know not to give those big ugly trucks any more than 5 car lengths.

Maybe you can fix all the oil leaks now so your dad does not have to power wash his concrete anymore.
 
Hmmm how fast was that cutlass because one of the guys that my brother hangs out with has an 03 duramax streight cab long bed,with a plow and a toolbox it is his daily driver and he plows snow in the winter. with stacked programmers, an exhaust,light spray of N.O.S.,and the upgraded allison to handle the power he put the type of times down, smoking tire in fourwheel drive to the sixty foot and past on 265 size tires.

Hmmmmm, must be two hybrids around. I saw a cutlass with a GN motor at Byron this past Saturday.
 
More details

The owner of truck is named Tony hes a construction guy. I never got a chance to run the cutlass with what WAS the current setup...but I would say that the car would 12.50s at 17 lbs. maybe...maybe a lil quicker. Tonys truck I would guess should go 12.90 -13.00? by the way he wasnt launching in 4 wheel drive, so thats another what if to the story.--But thats ok --the steel crank and forged rods are on the way :smile: :smile: :smile:
 
You figure you do 12.5 and he does 13 flat. Why on earth would you give this guy 10 cars??????????????????? Don't worry in life sometimes we all bite off more than we can chew. Good luck on the build coming up!!
