Got a race challenge
This guy on a fishing forum I frequent was talking trash about how fast his truck is. His truck is an '06 crew cab Dodge cummins 4x4. This was his post.
I told him $100 whenever he is ready. Then I got this email.
Im pretty sure he doesn't know what my truck is and what is done to it. I haven't told him and probably wont.
What do yall think about this race?
When I say I laugh at gas v-8s, I dont mean that in a rude way. And yes, I am very biased towards the Cummins. If yall drove one, you would look at your Titans and F-150s and seriously ask yourself what the hell you were thinking and you would be embarrassed that you came on here and acted as if it was plenty of power. I could hook a boat up to my truck and race you without a boat and I would bet any amount I would win that race.
Going to be near Dallas anytime soon? I will pull my own boat and you can have your truck completely empty. I will also have a camera man in my truck recordingthe race, so a little more advantage for you. How long would you like the raceto be? I would say a half mile or longer, but I am also pretty sure I would beat you off the line, even with the boat. I won't use my performance chip, with it Iwould have 3 times the torque you have and twice the hp. I will leave it off and only have a little more hp and twice the torque. I might be up at Ray Roberts in a few weeks so maybe we could do it then. I'm not positive I would win, but I do know it would be very close and I am pretty sure I would win. A lot of people drive v-8 gassers and think they have a lot of power, then they get in a Cummins diesel with 610 lbf of torque and they are blown away. It has happened to many of my friends and family. My brother has your exact truck with a performance chip on it and he was amazed when he drove my truck, then I drove his truck and, well, it was slow (but I am used to mine). I know I sound kind of arrogant, butI have a lot of pride in my truck and I know what it is capable of. I have beat Mustang GTs with my bed full of tools and the race wasnt even that close. I would really like to do this just to get an idea of what my truck can do with a boat on it and also to give you an idea of how much of a difference there really
