Hell this past Friday i had a guy try to tell me his 4.8 was bigger than my 6.0 lol.
I corrected him and he went on to talk about his dads Ford truck....and how with just a cam, longtubes and a glasspack it was running low 10's at 133mph.
Then he took the cam out and still ran low 11's trapping 126mph.
I just kinda laughed and said man that must have been a mean cam huh.Then walked away.

I'm sick and tired of tryin to explain to people that I tuned it myself with EFI Live on a dyno..But they still insist that i get a chip, or that i should get a Predator or a Hypertech and that it will run alot faster..thats usually when I bust up laughin right in their face and say their stupid and walk off..
truck in no order:
1) You got a chip in that thing?
2) What kind of exhaust, flows?

At times i wanna bitch slap the stupid out of em.
My normal response when this happens: No i woudn't put that **** on a go-cart.
Not that i really care what someone runs hey it's your truck but it pisses me off when someone assumes you have flowmaster because you have exhaust on your truck.
Not to mention they all eyeball my tips sitting on each side of the truck and they say right there on top BORLA.........i guess i really just get annoyed with morons to sum things up.

lol I kind of do the opposite when I ask someone about their exhaust
"What kind of exhaust do you have?...don't tell me it's flowmaster." haha
You shouldn't let stupid people annoy you, it brings you down to their moronic level.lol

Last Sat. at the track I had a Guy come up to me and point to my rear tires and ask me if those are special racing tires ( stock) I said no why, He said I had great 60' times.
Can You say AWD?

damn I guess people here in texas are a little smarter cause they always ask me if I have a hypertech.... but it equals the same, I tell them about custom tuning and they'll say well I heard superchips is better than hypertech... thats when I just ignore them....
