haha raced a dakota v8 magnum tonite.....

shutup dont make fun of me...
it was still fun becuz this is a v8 "magnum" truck that tried to jump the gun on me at the light and got 2 car lenghts in front of me, so i got on it, listend to the intake purr, and smoked him by about 5 car lengths at around 70, he was all over the road he was floorin it so hard, they got some *****, but if dodge wants to make a v6, oops i mean v8, they gotta do better then that

Would that Dakota truck have the same engine as a Ram SS/T? My friend has one, and since all I have performance wise is a Popcharger i'm kinda afraid to race him. Anyone have any idea how I would do against that truck?

But......

Yeah, I know what you mean. But you have to remember, I unfortunatly have an auto. I didn't know I wanted to have a fast car when I purchased it or else I would have waited to get a five speed. Guess it was just another lesson in life i've learned.

Once you're over 60mph, you have a serious aerodynamic advantage over any truck. . .

yeah i raced an r/t with exhaust the first week i had my car and i whooped his a$$ by like 4 or 5 cars from a stop. but be careful, if modded correctly those things can be a low 14 sec truck easy.

Well that's good to know. I'm pretty sure he doesn't have any mods beyond stock. I think i'm gonna have to challenge him to a race now. If he accepts I will let ya know what happens.
