Default held off a Harley Davidson Edition tonight.

well i had my 3.73 and eaton put in today and lets just say the damn thing shoots out of the hole. and i havnt even got all the way on it from a dead start. the most i have pushed is maybe half throttle. along with a couple of other mods the truck seems to be running very well. even had the trans adjusted today and i got back my firm shifts. there are just a tad bit to firm though. gonna have them turn it down a little tomorrow.
so any ways. i was pulling onto the feeder road of 45 tonight when i ford Harley Edition was pulling onto the feeder road from the U-turn at the same time. when i took off i slightly barked second and kept going. as i reach about 65MPH to get up on the freeway i notice that he is comin pretty good. so i nail it to see what i can do. He's in the inside lane and i am in the middle. he was about 10 truck lengths behind me when i nailed it. and the closest he got before i started PULLING FROM HIM was about half a truck length behind me and thats where he stayed. behind me untill i let off and he did one of those ricer flyby's and turned on his hazards.
im very impressed at the way my little 4.8L handles now. im hopin on being in the 14"s the next time i get to the track.

Nice.. Glad to hear you truck is pulling hard off the line. I whish I could say the same. You should have signaled him and done a 60 roll. You would have killed him.
