Guys in trucks seem to have the mentality that the louder the exhaust the faster and more dominant they are. 1 out of every 10 loud exhaust systems are actually on a car where I live. Talk about a let down. Sounds mean and does 0-60 in about 8 flat. Also they always want to try and pick on a little firebird. I never make fun of fellow car enthusiasts, but guys in huge trucks I swear are trying to compensate.

Didn't know 0-80 was considered "fast."
Thanks for clearing that up.
And the reason there is so much truck hate is because everyone and their mother that thinks they own a fast truck thinks they're a nascar and tries to race you in 20mph zones. In OK trucks truly are the ricers of the street. Ricers usually stay away but trucks, jesus, everyone with a truck wants to race for some reason and they can't understand why they always lose.

Obviously you know nothing about diesels. The limiting factor on them is their transmissions due to the large amounts of torque.
Stock come with 300+ bhp and 600+ btq depending on what year/model (duramax)
With an aggressive tune on a STOCK engine and turbo (fuel and transmission not being limiting factors) ....obviously with a CAI and exhaust as well.
You can go above 500rwhp and 1000rwtq with tuning.

So did you blow your motor at some point? (sig says it's a 355ci, so I'm only guessing). Good kill though, I've always wanted to run one. No idea on how fast or slow they are. Bottom line, trucks are at a HUGEEE disadvantage up top...although I heard a stock bodied truck hit something like 193mph at the Texas Mile.

For a stock car, yes I am pretty fast. Can your truck even do 150+?
Thought so.
Leave your ricer mentality at home truck boy.

What's your point? Mod for mod a highly modded car will beat on a highly modded truck. Weight reduction doesn't count. If you have a truck that weighs 1,500lbs, with nascar suspensions it's not really a "truck" anymore.

Dont wanna stir **** into this, but I've had this race with a big lifted 4X4 Duramax, and I can say that his truck was faster than 95% of the other cars I've raced, even at high speed. He was really hanging close, like 3-4 cars at 100mph..
But is my 500hp car that fast? no. So his truck is not the end of the world, but for an old guy trailing some heavy stuff, looks fun as hell!

Didn't mean to stir ****, I just hate all the SRT10/duramax/silverado owners around Oklahoma. They think they are the fast and furious and have built stroked 427s with giggle gas and quad turbos when all they have is a giant spoiler that's useless and 0-60 in 6 seconds.
