thanks guys the only reason i ask is that on my way home today i pulled up to a red light on beltway well it was 3 lanes at the light then briefley went down to 2 well i was in the left lane (the one that ends) and there was a GTP to my right well light turns green and he takes off so I nailed it too... Well lets just suprised when the bigbody pulled right past him no problem all motor i love it when people "know" that trucks are slow then when you blow by they have the most dumbfound look on theit faces

I wasn't lying about my friends running mid 14's. I was there when they ran that. I'm also a member of at www.clubgp.com and mid 14's aren't that rare. Their biggest problem is traction.

If they can run 10's without nitrous, why wouldn't they be able to run mid 14's stock? I know all of them don't run 14's stock but many of them have/do.

I don't know if it makes them any faster in-line, but it fell to the mighty 4.8!


The new GXP is a force to be reckon with though. It has a 5.3L!
