Ah **** stop the press an SS goes down in flames!

so i'm on my way home and i pass up this new looking red chevy silverado SS. you know i gotta give him a hear of the banks as i pull a bit hard from a light. i watch in my mirrors and i see him pull from the crowd and creep up on my left. I'm see i'm getting a bite and i slow up a bit. I see the light ahead is red and i am making my left on it. damn i think he is going straight. bummer but then he pulls in behind me in the double left lane and switches over to the far left lane. We're side by side in the left turn lane. At this point i know i got a bite so i start "reeling" I know the area well so i give him a little pull but watch the traffic ahead so I can time so we're side by side at the next light which preceeds an awesome stretch of 3 lane road with almost no side streets for about a 1/4 mile. Good news boss hog good news! We line up at the light. Him on the left, me in the center, and guess who pulls up on the right... an older Dodge RC SS/T (the one with those double racing stripes) . The Dodge had a gauge pod so i was like WHOA! Perfect Storm kinda ****. I look left and i see the guy give me "the grin" his girl friend was laughing. I look right and the with the Dodge sees the guy in the SS give the grin and i yell, AHHHH YEAH IT'S ON!! I drop it in N and give it a yell and settle in 4 w/big tow on and wait for the light. I swear i think i got a lazy one. lol The light goes green and the SS got a lil launch on me but the T got a longer launch. I think it was the shift that got him because he spent the rest of the ride to 80 with his headlights at my shoulder. He pulled off at 80 and since it was night i turned on the inside lights on raise both arms in victory. What a rush. The dodge... didn't even go and pulled up at the next light. I asked what happened and he said "you crazy i wudda got dogged. Your **** has 50 hp more than me stock." I said "so what you shoulda gave it a go." He also said, "your **** sounds nice." Oh yeah beeeochs I'm on 24's!! ahh yeah!

Sounds like a good run, congrats.

Say Og....Good kill man....By the way we dont have a tuner....unless you call +2 degrees timing a tune...NOT!

Say there's no comparison boosted vs NA or for that matter boosted Chevy vs NA Titan (no aftermarket) the Chevy wins....easy race. OH wait I knew that already...silly me.

Oh no sir no feelings hurt here...It's a good kill you had crap a kill is kill. Just pointing out the obvious mods issues. Things are changing though give it year or two more and I hope to have a street ponder in Titan form that I can race head to head run what you brung.

I wonder if STS would make a turbo kit for you Titan guys. The only thing would be fuel control I guess.

If you cannot tune it what is the use? Until someone makes a programmer not many companies will make parts for the T. You need to be able to control timing, A/f, shift point etc.
