Are you going to the track to do this? Seems kind of stupid to get your liscense in the morning and have it taken away for street racing that night
Or worse, crash into someone and kill yourself, them, or at best get your truck totaled and your **** thrown to the lions by their attorney. My advice is to do this after you get some experience under your belt at a track, then you can know the times too
I would think his being a heavy4wd could be enough for you to pounce him, especially if you take the 20s off for the run

Just paid attention to the other post. If you aren't very experienced driving, you will have a hard time, but the truck should be capable. Check out some of the other threads, and ask questions. We will get you whoopin up on him, and that heavy **** 4wd......Wait I have a 4x4
