Default Powerstroke

I was in the next town over going for a drive, and saw this f350 powerstroke, rclb. It looked like it was lowered, because it was only about 6" taller than my truck. It had one stack in the middle hooked way over towards the passenger side, it looked stupid. He was driving like an idiot in traffic, until we got out of town, and the speed limit raised, then he slowed down. There were about 3 lights in a row, so I was trying to end up next to him at one, but couldn't. At the last light he was next to a dodge cummins, and they started revving at each other. I was behind the dodge, so I was going to fallow to see if they were quick or not. When the light turned green, that ford took off faster than a bat out of hell, blowing the doors off the dodge, which I was right behind the whole time. I'm glad I wasn't next to him, because he would have embarrassed me bad. That thing was like a rocket, I have never seen anyone pull that hard on someone I thought would be a close race in my life. I knew they could wind up those diesels, but nothing like that, it was nuts how fast that truck was.

diesel are capable of alot more power for less $ mod for mod usually, with a programmer alone you can get upwards of 500 hp and 800 tq, there freaken crazy, since that guy went so far to have stacks Im willing to bet he didnt just have a programmer

I think he had about everything you could throw at it on there. I wasn't wot behind the guy he was racing, but I was close. I figured he was about as fast as I expect a Z06 to be or faster, pretty damn fast for a big *** truck IMO.
