Bit by a Viper



Just when I think my truck is pretty quick, and it is for a 4x4..I've smoked my share of Chevy's and Dodge's, but today I was bit by a Viper. It was a beautiful red Dodge Viper with white racing stripes down the middle. I was sorta half-jokingly reving my engine at a light......needless to say my 5.4 truck is no match for a 10 cylinder sports car...

The guy was pretty cool about smoking me though, at the next red light he said I had a nice truck and it sounded good..heh heh
then he bought me a burger at Micky D's....

Hey, look at the bright side, you got a free meal. And people say there no such thing as a free lunch.

Half the weight + double the horsepower = Smoked!

I would've offered to pull him out for free if he ever was stuck in a snow bank (if it's even possible to put a ****** rope on one).

Chevysniper,

Just a thought, challenge him again!! This time tell him he can make any rules he wants, but in return you get to pick the road. Now, yours is 4wd isn't it? See were I'm going with this?

I'll probably never see that guy again, he was a tourist visiting Big Bear going skiing. I never really thought my truck would hold a candle to the Viper, but it was fun to watch one of those things run...
