Default gas vs. diesel...yall pick the winner

this dude at work knows my truck isnt runnin but he still wants to run...again in 2 weeks lol. he has yet to beat me, we ran twice.

his truck....2007 GMC 2500, diesel, CCLB, 4x4. mods are banks CAI, Banks 6 gun, straight 5 inch exhuast, and soon to come a airdog fuel system, than hes gonna put is programmer on 'SL' mood.

my truck is a 97 K1500, ZZ4 355, 4.10 gears, soon to come will be a built tranny and a Yank 2800 stall converter. after the converter ill probly be in the mid 14s.

no, we ran twice.
1st time was with 3.42s in my truck, he pu half a truck on me off the line but i passed and walked him after that.
2nd time (with the 4.10s) i jumped off the line hard and put a truck on him, and thats where he stayed till about 100 mph, where he slowly passed me.

both times was his programmer on level 6 (highest)
