Default joe gibbs race

my dad has a buddy with a supercharged joe gibbs tahoe that he suposedly paid around 60,000 for. i pulled into the driveway while he was leaving and he gave me a rev. i revved beack. my truck is way louder. he laughed and said "im still faster(because he whipped me pretty good about 8 mo ago)." i shrouged my shoulders and said i dunno!

he took that as a challenge as i hoped he would. to make a long story short, i whipped his *** up to about 60. wish we had room to go up to about 95 but the road was too short. last time we raced he took me off the line but then couldnt leave me too much. this time we ran even off of the line, but i pulled good up past 30mph.

hopefully i can get him to come out on november 20 to see exactly what the joe gibbs tahoes will do

What did you change between your race with him eight months ago and your recent race?
