I just want to start of with I love these Freakin trucks! Nothing compares to them.


First instance, no race here. I pull up to light, I am in the left lane, a VW Jetta with 3 kids is in the right lane. It is a nice night so my windows and their's are down. I hear the driver talking about the wheels, "Check out the 22's on that HEMI, that looks good man!" The passenger corrects him and tells him, "That's not a HEMI dumbass!" Driver, "Huhhh??" Passenger, "That truck is like 500 plus HP, its badass!!" The driver has no idea what his passenger is telling him as he has his head half out the window looking up and down the truck. The light turns green, punch V10 in the backside and give driver ear-full of Viper V10. They actually just sat at the light after I took off.

Just after the above, I stop at convenience store to get money from ATM. Leave to go home and come up on, I am guessing a fat boy type Harley. It's loud, crackling burbling, all the typical Harley stuff. Not intending to race but he messed with me a little after leaving one light so if we caught another one, well see what happens. We caught another one and he wants to go. He kept revving the bike at the light. I figured what the hell why not? Light turns green and he nosed out on me a little (half bike length). By the time I was getting ready to go from 1st to 2nd the SRT-10 was starting to real him in. After hitting second the Viper's cubes and HP took over. Harley man just got pissed all over by a 5800 lb QC pickup truck. I let off and slowed down was going to give a thumbs up or an obligatory nod or something. He would not come near me. Must have forgot something at home. Jumped off exit, see ya later Harley dude.

After this there must have an older white guy who was behind me and the Harley. He is driving a white older model Dakota wearing a straw hat no shirt and is all tatted up, and pulls up next to me at a light. Asks, that got a 5.9 L. I tell him no, 8.3 L, Viper Motor. Yeah, that's nice he says (could've told him I had the Space shuttle engine it). Light turns green and down the road I go. He catches up to me on a roll and I think he his trying to tell me how bad I beat the bike. All I could hear as he was grinning ear to ear and trying to have a conversation at 60 mph, "I saw smoke and then you killed is ass!! That is nice ass truck man!" I did not hear half of what he said but thanked him and then took off. Now here I sit.

Just thought I would share, sorry for the lengthy post. So much for going easy on the new trans, I knew I was going to have a weak moment. Damn SRT-10

I love getting the "HEMI" question! Then when I tell them what it has in it, it's like a magnet to the hood latch handle. It's not that they don't believe me, but they have to see it. Sounds like a great little Sunday!
 
I love to read these stories! Btw I was told by some biker friends of mine that Harleys are not fast..? ....I personally love foolin around with motorcycles...most other cars are just a waste of gas:D

No Harley's are not that fast unless they are worked. This thing was all do dadded up, so I was not sure. But shit it's still a bike and I am a big heavy ass truck. That has to count for something right?

EMT as for the HEMI thing. They (kids in Jetta) did not ask me what it had in it. It was like I was not even there. They were talking to themselves and I guess they figured I was deaf.
 
yes these are beautiful beasts. if ya start out with no altitude it will give ya one before ya get where ya goin.
AIN'T IT GRAND:rock: :burnout: :rock: :burnout: :marchmellow: :congrats:
 
Most harleys are not too fast. But, they do make some that will kill the best of us.:( Harley-Davidson's Factory built Destroyer, that easily cracks the 9-second barrier in quarter-mile drag racing. Their not street legal but I have seen one on the street before.:rock: :rock:
