I know, I know...sheesh, it's illegal, dangerous, I swear I didn't mean to do it...honest
Now that I have that out of the way, while hanging out in a local supermarket parking lot last night with some of the streeters, a guy in an '06 SRT8 Jeep decides he wants to come over and quiz me about the little black truck and I returned the favor by quizzing him about his Jeep. To make a long story short he's running a 6.1, ECM, cold air, aftermarket cam, 3" exhaust and spray...claims he runs 7.90s on motor in the 1/8. Mine is a 360, headers, air gap, 750, comp hyd cam and Indy X heads, 3.55 gear. he wants to sneak off on a side street and run 'em, I decline just because of the amount of cops I have seen this particular night and I think he's got me WAY outgunned
. We BS for awhile and it getting late so we exchange plesantries and I roll out...guess who follows me...yep...the Jeep...he follows me about a block then rolls up next to me, no traffic, crap, it's on, I pull it into low and I hear him do the same, we rip it for about 2 blocks and I pull him about a truck length, we bak out and he pulls up beside me and says he missed a gear? Wants to go again, before I can get the truck pulled back in low he woods it and is gone...and I mean gone...like shot out of a cannon gone. I let him go, he backs up to me and tells me my truck runs good and then says see ya later, gone again...LOL. Oh well, I would like to try him on again in a controlled setting, ala, dragstrip, think I could run with him on motor, but I'm pretty sure on the second go-round he sprayed me, and that gave me a real good view of his back bumper. I think I need to look for some spray or a procharger...just sayin...
