Default Huge Kill

Not really but still a kill. It was my friends V8 F150. He were on the highway and we were doing about 56 and I did the whole point back and forth thing and he shrugged his shoulders so I did a 1.2.3 countdown then floored it. I started to pull almost immediately and it only go tbetter as 3rd revved higher. I hit my brakes at like 75 ish and he slowed down too. It was great cause he didn't think the 1.6 liter could get his "monster v8" I thought he would actually take me but I did it. It would have been better from like 40 mph so I oculd have been in 2nd but it still worked out.

i have never had any trouble with any v8 trucks other than the lightning. good kill though. i love to see v8 people realize that 4 cylinders can be fast. dont get me wrong though, dollar for dollar a v8 will be faster

whats wrong with you people, its a ford truck! Come on, that was a win win situation. I cant believe you would even think that that pick up would take you, and then actually race one to find out.

seriously, the tranny's on most domestic trucks are geared low for towing... really, if there was an ally tranny in that sucker, it would be different. Comon, were arent talking about a V8 outa the 60's now.

I know, but if you're getting to the point of being over joyed after beating a truck in a race, and Im not talking about lightings or SS, then you need to get that rice out of your weins. I mean if you beat a V-6 stang, yea, Id consider that a good kill.

I am not like wearing a badge on my chest that says I bet an F-150 I was just sharing my happiness of making another friend sad. LOL And I know aobut the towing gearing. I also know about the gearing in a trans am. That thing flew.

Let me clarify that I am not trying to come in here and be like everyone throw money at me cause I beat a ford f 150. I am simply jsut sharing my attempt at a competition with another car.
