Default Killed a 2g GSt and a Crown Vic

2g GST story first.
Female Driver. Stoplight. I throw a rev, she smiles back and gives it a little gas.
Light turns green and she got on it. So i did as well, hit 2nd gear and spun em, shes about my passenger door, by about 45mph she is about a car behind me and falling. so i let off, speed limit is 45...so she flys by...than i catch up and am next to her...she says somethign and starts to get on it and i drop to 2nd at 45 mph and spin em good..but she was at my door by 55mph.

next is the Crown Vic.
my friend is in front of me in his colorado...goes to jump lanes and the crown vic is flying up the other lane. and almost hits my friend who jumped back into his own lane so he wouldnt get hit. this crown vic is now spinning the tires at the next 2 lights. third light...my friend decides to get over like hes gonna race him...but gets behind the Vic and lets me get next to him. 4lo, romp on it, spin all 4, bog down..get traction and im gone, by 45mph(same road as the 2g gst) and hes a good 2-3 cars back. i let off, turn my flashers on and slow down some so he can catch up.


good day for me...first 2 races in my truck besides my friend in his v6 f150. only took 9 months to get a race...and got 2 in the same day w00t.

The 4.8L is clearly the best of the Gen3 motors...

I agree 100%, i mean who the hell needs the 5.3 or 6.0 or any other motor when you got this powerhouse engine.

A bone stock 4.8 4x4 running with a turbo eclipse...how is this possible? Peeling all 4 tires in 4lo? I know in my dodge its not supposed to go over 35mph in 4lo but i dont know with the chevy. How are you peeling out at 45 mph in a 4x4. Is the redlining and popping the clutch? Anyway Im not calling but I'm guessing your truck isnt going to last long if it does what you are saying it does. Good kills.
