Sorry dude if he's an newer 08 LMM your toast. Get some sunscreen or hats for that bald head! I own an LMM and have done boosted launches and no boost launches and I have run Dodges, Fords and even GT Mustangs and haven't lost one yet! The Stang was the closest race! GM trucks are 1000 pounds lighter and more hp, your lucky if you win. As far as the Ally having to low 1st gear mine screams off the line and has never hiccuped ever! My 6.0 falls behind 6-10 truck lengths when I run against my wife in the Ex. Only did that once, now that was funny! I told her to floor it and not let off till 75mph. Even gave here a little head start!

 

Yea its an 08, I'm still going to give it a try. maybe he will brake something, he has already had it towed twice

 

Well with his 35's your best bet is come off the line as hard as you can! That's where you will have to get him, but who know maybe his 08 is a dog? Prolly not though...... If the guy knows how to race a diesel he really should win, if not you may get him!

 

my second 250 and his first diesel...who knows I will find out soon

 

just dont say anything about a 4wd launch and launch yours in 4wd. Maybe he wont think of it...

 

I should start practicing now, from the sound of it I will need all the help I can get. Without doing the research my self (apples to apples) 08 against 08 ford against chevy who would win?

 

Stock probly the chevy equaly modifide not sure I've heard they are doing crazy things with just tunes on the 6.4s.

 

Stock 08 Ford vs Stock 08 Duramax. Dmax hands down.

 

that suck's, Im at a lost for words................................

 

Next time do your research before you make the bet...

I was talking about stock vs stock on two new trucks, maybe ford should do some research

 

I heard the 6.0s have a bit of trouble if your floor them right off the line, I would put it in 4x4, and do a slight boosted launch, you *MIGHT* have a chance then.

 

I agree Lead Head, Yea it does do better at 1/2 or 3/4 throtle off the start.

 

Sounds like you've got a lot of great advice here. Wonder if your boss is getting the same from a different source.

 

Yes all great advise thanks guys, He left town on buisness and wont be back for a couple of weeks....told him he was lucky he got to leave before we could line them up. There will be no getting out of it though, I got to know for shure
