Default bottle fed 6.0 vs early 90's sentra (long read)

well thats not a mistake i said early 90's sentra.

Quite possibly the funnest race ive had to date.

Going home theres a certain stretch of road i love to spray on and today was no different.

got the red light and glanced to make sure everything was on and ready purged a few times and got ready to get a smile on my face.

I guess my purge got the attention of a car two lanes over, a beat to hell sentra was all i could see but i heard a fart can and just chuckled wonder what he was thinking and also wondering why he was not revving the **** out of like normally they do.

well light goes green and i tear down the street, but io hear a funny noise think ng oh crap what did i break so i got out of it only to see this sentra about a car length back.

Ill be honest i was confused, but then i realizied it wasnt my truck making that noise it was him. So we cuaght the next light together him on my passenger side he pays my truck a few compliments and im trying to figure out why he would have guages and a tach mounted in his car. All the while he just had a weird smile and look on his face.

turn light is about to go red so that means green for us in a second heard him rev up a few times and a blowoff valve??. Lights goes green and we are off 30 40 we are side by side 60 70 hes starting to drop off the slightest bit 90-100 his nose is somewhere midway at me truck bed i shut down at a bit past 110 i think.

catch the next light the f#@ckin first thing out of his mouth was "youre so lucky" after i luaghed i asked why he said he missed third.

i said lets do it again and we did about three more times all the same result as we went our seprate ways he said thats a fast truck I gave him a thumbs up and went home.

As he he turned i noticed the drag radials up front and a big sticker that said i love boost.

Ain't nothing wrong with a beat up old car with a little bite to it.. Funny that it was a sentra. Don't they have little 1.8l engines?
