Cool cake

Sometimes I luv my town! Yet again, this ricer Cavelier wants to race me. I had raced him before 2 times and won both times. I wasn't sure why he wanted to go again, but I figured he had done something to his car for more power or something. (by the way, I was at the local gas station when he saw me) So we get to talking about "his racer" or so he called it. He really wanted to go again with me, so I asked what he had under the hood. He wouldn't say...

There's a road that is about 2 miles out of town that a lot of "race for fun" type races happen. We went and hit it. Long story short, I beat him by 7 lengths at about 70 MPH. He couldn't believe it!

This was his excuse for thinking he was gonna win..."But I just changed the oil and spark plugs on my car!" I don't think he'll be back again... like I said - cake.

I have a drop in K&N filter, and that's it. By X-Mas, I'll have a Diablo Chip and a MAC Air Intake. From there, I'll go into the exhaust realm.

Really? Let's see your truck currently runs a 16.1 in the quarter. By then, mine should be around that quick with the mods. Just tell me when you wanna do it! It'll be fun.

OH YEA! Strick88, are you running your truck at premium octane for fuel? That's what your chip is designed for I would think. If not, that could be the reason why you are not in the 15's. Also, if you haven't been, it'll probably take a couple of tanks for your chip to start really working properly.
