yo what up....i was on my way home 2day, bout 1.5 miles from my house stopped at a light w/ a slight inclination when this guy in a dodge v10 [?not sure] Magnum pickup pulls up next to me...i had my windows down and system up bumpn Aint No Fun and as he's rolln up to my car i see him sizing up my max...at first i was like, oh hell ya, he wants to race? but then i looked at his truck again and thought nah...light turns green and he floors it, and he got a lil lead on me cuz i didnt start acceling...then i floor it, and i pull even in like a second and my rpms hit like 6...and i was waiting for the gears to shift and they slipped i guess cuz it took a while and by the time it shifted the guy gained a lil...but the inclination straightened out and i basically capped his a$$.....im not sure if this counts as a kill cuz im not feeln overly excited bout beating a pickup...but since this is only like the 3rd guy who has ever tried to race me, its coo...my first kill was 97-98 bmw 325i 4-dr i think..it was bout 8pm so i couldnt exactly tell...but after i beat him the bmw guy got pretty pi$$ed and came up rite next to me and when i accelerated he would do the same, when i braked he would brake...i dont think he liked tha fact that a maxima killed him......

It was probably a V8:

Horsepower: 230 hp @ 4400 rpm
Torque: 300 ft-lbs. @ 3200 rpm

V10 is same as a Viper:
Horsepower: 450 hp @ 5200 rpm
Torque: 490 ft-lbs. @ 3700 rpm

Woulda eaten you for lunch...

Yep, gotta watch out for those Ford F-150 SVT:
Horsepower: 360 hp @ 4750 rpm
Torque: 440 ft-lbs. @ 3000 rpm
worth of supercharged, kick our a$$ power!!!

Good kill though! That'll teach those pickups to mess with the 4 door family cars!!!
