So I'm minding my business on my way home from having my exhaust welded together, when in my mirror I see a tricked out F250 turbo diesel flying up behind me.:rock: It was a nice truck...

There was black smoke billowing from the beast. He comes up beside me and then puts down the hammer. I just laughed. :bebored: At the next light I move into the lane behind him and he then moves to the left lane to bring me up next to him. I rolled down my window and pointed out he had a few pounds on the 10 (like ~ come on…). :dontknow: He said he had a lightning at home. I said well that would probably take my QC. He smirked:mad: and said he wanted to see what his 250 would do against me - with some kind of tuning… :mad: When the light turned green I let him hit it first because I wasn’t sure if he was serious. When I passed him in less than 2 seconds and then made the asphalt scream going into second he either quit or his truck is really:p slow. :p :D :D
His truck puked lots of black smoke and after I let off and slowed to the speed limit he kept going, mosquito smoking down the road…:rolleyes: :aetsch: Sometimes I think we get called out just because people want to see what our truck can do…
 
Seems like he was Intimidated by your truck. he was Just messing with you and he knew you were very fast
 
Good kill:rock: Some of thoes disels are pretty fast. My buddy has one thats pushing over 800 to the wheels
 
skitter killer..LOL....I hate diesels at the track because of the smoke....2 ran against each other last yr and they had to stop the races for 5 minutes to let the smoke clear...
 
I had a diesel litteraly smoke me bad. Put a fender on me right away and just kept pulling. Seen him later at the track and he was running 12.7 to my 14.3. You just never know with those diesels.

I egg people on too just to see how fast there ride is. Did that to a Shleby GT 500 and he pulled on me pretty good too.

Yeah They got like 900ftlbs of torque right??

That's why my I use my F250 for hauling the race car. They can be made to haul ass, but they're still better at hauling stuff.:D

WOW! Then I guess this would be a~kill~. :rock:
It just felt more like I was giving him a Spanking... :dontknow:
I don't know what the guy that challenged you was running. But they can be made to haul azz. But you beat him and that's a kill.

Those numbers were for one of the local NC guys and his Dodge Ram Cummins. I've seen him at the dyno and the track. He drives a plain Jane red extended cab truck with stock wheels even. I think he could take any of the SRT trucks in this area with the exception of Stinker or one or two others running forced induction.

Would his name be John P?:D There are MANY daily driven fast as heck diesels. I happen to own one that fools alot of hot shoes......:elefant:

That's him. Heck of a nice guy. Till you line up next to him.
John is an awesomely friendly guy.:rock: his old 12V runs like a raped ape.
 
Well I had my 95 12 valve running at 53 psi , and had all the fun stuff installed. I could not get a trans to last so I installed a 5 speed manual. When wet I could get sideways in 5th gear driving 60 mph:D

They have a lot of torque only problem is you can’t shift fast enough.
I think I had about 400hp and 800fp torque.

Last winter we had a truck bring up a storage container 50’ to my work he got stuck, I offered him to pull him out and he looked at me and asked with what I told him my truck and he got that yeah right look, but said lets try.
I hooked up to it and started in 4th gear low for dif lock up mud started flying and pulled him out lol he was so shocked he could not say anything.

Anyway diesel’s can be fast and fun.
 
If you ever line up with a smoker then you better on your game cause you never know what their mods are.
 
yeah those diesels can be made real fast... also remember... some of those guys put it in 4wd... JUST to beat you outa the hole.... and trust me.... even an F250 long bed... with 4wd... can be fast outa the hole :D .... that black smoke is just unburnt fuel and usually means they're atleast running a modified tune....
