Default rt-10

My buddy bough t a white rt-10 truck limited edition with blue stripes and put headers , a corsa exhaust, cold air and a twisted metal short throw shifter in this truck. I have raced him several times and won . Well he sold the truck to some punk kid that thinks its a BMF well yesterday the kid pulls up next to me and will not leave me alone at the light i tell him i have raced that truck and it will be waisting my time he then says well I supercharged it so I give him a grin and tell him let go . From a dig I put about three links on him thats a given so of course he wants to hit it from a 20 mph punch so we did I put a link on him right off he was by my side till about 85-90 then i walked away. I dont care how much hp the truck is it is not aerodynamic at all so even though he spent another 5k on supercharger it still cant hang.

Was it any faster? It sounds like it was the typical outcome like when your friend had it.....

You know now that I think about it I did not here anything different that would signal a supercharger, I will say he drove it better than my friend ever could.
