Talking Smoked the Big D

We had a large 4-wheel drive show this weekend. So I am cruising down the interstate and ran into a lifted D-Max equal to mine and he wanted to play. With open road and no one in sight I turned the 6.0 loose on him, I must say he gave it good effort and smoked like one of the locomotives you used to see in the early days.

I got off the interstate and he pulled up next to me at the last light leading back out of town to the event....yep...he wanted another shot at me. Bye, Bye

We chatted later and the excuses started coming, no NOS, no propane, stacked tuners but did not have his EDGE turned up.....

I respect the Cummins Twins but I have a feeling a good running D-Max is far and few to be found.....so on average I might get my rear waxed 1 out of 10 times which is not a bad average in my book.

Hey maxium what kind off speeds are you running here on the top end. just curious. Good Kill by the way. Sounds like you test your truck out against others quite often.

Good guess....it does not register after 100mph. I will have some new 1/4 mile times in a few weeks.

My "To Do" list is a gear change to 4.30 and water/meth.
