last time i raced a truck it just so happened to be a rally prep'd toyota 4 runner with a supercharger and tons of other motor mods

that thing launched so damn hard that it instantly had about 3 car lenths off the start!

ill never forget how stupid i felt that day haha

all wheel drive rally prep'd 4 runners are no joke!

I saw a truck one time with a 4" exhaust, I was behind it, and as I passed it I saw a 2" exhaust inside a 4" tip

He's actually a nice guy and his GF is pretty chill, but skilled drivers they are not.

Practice, practice, practice...theres no substitute

Yeah, I work with two guys that have big stupid trucks and all they ever talk about is how they make 50 psi and can beat me in their Dodge turbo diesel. It just gets annoying...

And yes, the Super Duty dudes and the Dodge guys always try and rev on me for whatever reason. And they always have hats on sideways with flat bills. Stereotypes happen for a reason...

Good for you big diesel truck guys. You'll wake up tomorrow and still be a douche in a truck. I mean, a huge truck couldn't possibly be an extension of something, right?

Super Duty trucks race because they are pretty fast for what they are. 75% of cars on the road could beat mine probably.



I love racing trucks, or any car for that matter...

they pass you on the freeway acting like theyr all that...then an offramp comes OH NOES!!! thats when i pass them or ride their *** honking making them and their passengers embarassed.

F*** Straights. Straights are for gheys.

...a track with no straight-aways...that is a world one day i would like to live in.

There are more a**holes in Subarus than in diesel trucks; I drive both a STI and a Dodge diesel, and I get cut off 10 times more in my truck than my STI. In fact, I almost killed someone in a WRX a few weeks ago because the f*cking moron decided to cut my off and I had to STAND on my brakes to avoid hitting him.

I can't think of a *single* time I got cut off by a diesel truck in the last 3 years.

We average about the same or a little better mileage driving the truck than in the WRX. 17-18mpg. I'm sure the truck gets better mileage than a modded STi.

Granted the truck doesn't get driven as hard as often. But for the way they get driven in the real world, it's right there.

Hatchy and I seem to live on the same planet.

Hook up a big trailer that makes it difficult to stop quickly or do anything resembling defensive maneuvers and you'll quickly learn who the idiots are....
