Got called out by a diesel. Just thought this was funny. He called my car slow and said hed walk it. doesnt know anything about cars, just driving daddys truck around thinking its faster than his old grand am 
. His friend is takling all **** too so i thought we try and get this race over with to shut 'em up (if it doesnt. Dont know anything about it or diesels (dont even know the year lol). I think its stock, but heres a pic. Even if its modded Id assume its still going to get very ugly...
How bad is this going to get for him?

I used to see full size/full weight diesels eat cars up at the street races. My friends diesel truck puts down 1000 trq. No joke.
At the street races i'd see these trucks put car lengths on people. They just need a good tune.
Depending on his truck you better watch out.... Just a heads up.

A local on his race tune pulled an EVO IX with a tune and meth HARD out of the hole. Evo didnt catch up until around 80mph. 6.0 powerjoke.
Another with a newer duramax runs 10s. 1400tq. but he dropped some serious money

Highly moded 5.9L Cummins can put down over 2000 ft/lbs.
I belong to some diesel forums and those guys love making their rigs into sleepers and then laying down on some Corvettes and Mustangs. You never know what's under the hood on some of those rigs.
A decent indicator of if a diesel is going to eat your luinch is if there's a lot of black smoke coming out of the tailpipe. I forget what it is about the diesel combustion process combined with turbos but basically black smoke = power. You'll notice in the tractor pulls the stacks are absolutely blackening the air with exhaust. But if they want to trick you they can leave their tuner on the low setting so they dont' make the smoke and then onyl turn it up right before the race.

Ok, I dont understand why everyone is telling me what it could do with money into it? (I guess cuz its the bench racing section). I asked about the scenario of him being stock, not built to run 11s. Yes, I know diesels can be fast, but this one is basically stock, so lets just stick to that. Thanks.

OP, if you know its stock, why are you asking? Just destroy the truck.

Ive seen fast diesels that dont smoke at all and yet, others, that are downright stupid. Basically, you can make the SAME power without the smoke but diesel guys think its cool to blow smoke for some reason.

If he's stock like you think, you'll walk him hard. but I'll say, my buddy's Duramax runs 12's and he doesnt have a tremendous amount into it. The powerstrokes dont make as much power though, so even if he is tuned, you should still be 'ok', but you wont put buslengths on him like you think.
