I thought about some short drag radials for my stock rims for the track too. Maybe some 28"ers. That way I could drive to track with them instead of carring them with me. I kinda don't have a bed. Do have a trailer though. That would be funny. Lol

Speaking of, it's 12'(over all) by 6' trailer. I was towing it empty the other day an some rx8 tried to race me. Now that **** was funny. After I let out and he cought up I got a honk and a thumbs up.

HAH, thats when you know someone means business. When they're pulling a trailer and still kick your *** in a race.

Haha I have had similar incidents. I was taking my little brother snowmachining and was pulling a 4 place trailer with two machines and all our gear. There was a guy going 10 under the speed limit driving a mid 2k F150 up one of the hills so I pull over into the oncoming lane and do a nice gentle pass around him. As I get side by side he looks over and gives a puzzled look and stomps on it. I lay into it and we are now in a drag race up a hill LOL. I start pulling on him and at about 20 yards before the double line starts back up I tuck into the lane in front of him. He end up blowing by me on the next straight away with me just laughing my *** off when he reaches my window.


LOL ya you just got worked by this....

One upper.... J/k. That's some funny stuff. Gm trucks are awesome. No doubt about it. I miss my ls1 silvy getting 22mpg at 85mph. Hahaha. Then again it wouldn't stand a chance to my hoe.

Yeah I hear ya. There was a 1000rwhp lightning around these parts a couple year ago, and the dude was a bit of a douche. Doesn't have the truck anymore and he's still a bit of a douche. lol
