Default rsx-s vs. lt1 vs. wrx vs. f-250 superduty

Well after a fraternity meeting a few of my friends thought they would be brave and try to do some racing. first it was the wrx and the rsx. the rsx smoked it pretty bad, they guy just got his wrx and drives it like it is his grandmas and he is borrowing it. then i raced the super duty with the lt1, i spun for a good while and he was off, (has all the chip mods, exhaust, intake), I did catch up to him and beat him but damn that thing was fast for a big truck. then it was me and the rsx, we both spun for a while then i walked him by almost 2 lengths or so. fun night but i thought i smelt some burning might be my auto, it does have like 98k on her.

SD F-250s are kinda fast once they get moving but should be no match for an LT1 a diesel is just a diesel!

yea it was on highway 60, and no the rsx was not turbo'd yet. he has the kit though, i know i should have beat both of them worse but had horrible traction issues, my tires are so hard (w-rated), that i just couldnt hook up for the life of me

Diesels can be alot faster than you know with the right mods.
This will give you an idea of what they are capable of.

A diesel is not just a diesel anymore, there more than a handful that will put a hurtin on alot of the cars on this forum. It's pretty easy to get monster torque out of them, my Dodge is putting down almost 1000 ft/lbs at the wheels. Diesels will never replace a sports car but it sure is alot of fun getting a 7000+ lb. vehicle to boogie.
