Default Raced a Stock 350Z yesterday...:)

Hi guys long time no talk, hope all are well and tearing up the roads in there Z's.........I miss mine alot............somedays I wish I could have kept her in my garage for those days when I want to go fast down a windy road, maybe someday I will again..................anyways I was at a stop sign against a stock brand new 350Z and I asked him if he wanted to race, he said against that.........(My new F-250 Diesel).......and I said ya I think I can beat you, he said OK lets go. Anyways long story short I was 4 trucks ahead after 1/8 mile..........HEHE...........Made me feel good that a 7,000lb 4X4 can ruin somebody's day in a sports car.............LOL...............Out of the whole not many cars can keep up..............just thought I'd pass my story on to old time freinds, I'll be in touch soon, Take care guys!!!!

That's hilarious I have several customers (paint contractors) that have F 250s with some type of tuning chip. I must admit, they haul @ss. Hopefully, I'll get my car this weekend (TT install) and not have to worry about such things

LOL..................I think I ruined his day................next month I am adding PROPANE INJECTION then I will be high 12's in the qrt. Adds 90rwhp and 200rwtq..............the torque out of a modded 6.0L diesel is undescribable..................Nice to hear from you boogy. Hope your car and yourself are well.


PS - did GQ ever get his sweet ride fixed?

It's still a F-250 though. I got Civics smoking me all the time, but anyone with $2,000 for the car and $4,000 for the engine and turbo can do the same.

Wow, I imagine that truck could pull a building off from its foundation with all that torque. :P

Kevin,
I lost your contact info and your PM box was full. I am still working on my Z! Later this week, I get off work at 2PM Thurs and Fri....I'm also off this coming weekend. My number is 916-705-4942 I am looking at that APS kit right now. I bought NISMO headers because I'm undecided. Keep N/A or go TT? If I keep N/A, then I'm getting a Harley. What do you think? Your truck sounds mean. I might have seen you not too long ago up in Serrano?
