Lets get a thread of Kill Stories going here. Give us the play by play of ricers or other trucks that you have raced and smoked.

there was this guy one time that had a burgandy chevy 6.5L and he tried to race me....

haha just kidding brent i was impressed that you went as fast as you did... those 4.10's help

actually i went to the races in palmdale last wednesday. i raced a brand new mustang gt stick and i was only 0.4 seconds behind him in the 1/4 mile. also that night i actually beat one of those old 80's cameros and a 17 second s-10 rotfl

I tend to take off from a light pretty quick if there is a Honda with a wing next to me, not shure why it's so fun. :doah:

HAHA yeah me too. I be sure to floor it so that a big cloud of black smoke pours out of the tailpipe rotfl That straight pipe roar helps to strike fear in the hearts of honda drivers :D

Yeah I wish the 4.10s would help my milage as well :doah: Call me next time you go up to LACR and I will tag along. waytogo

yall want to scare some ricer racer punks get your tire a quarter of an inch away from their door as you racing them and if you happen to slip the wheel a bit :dunno: burnout

i beat a late 80's camero at the drags the other day... il bet he was suprisedrotfl

Back in the day I had a 71 chevelle that I modded a bit. Put in a hot 350, 750 4bbl, headers and 2.5" duals. But the clincher was the powerglide tranny with the shift kit. The car looked like utter crap and would sometimes drop a little body filler if I hit a bump too hard. So one day at a stoplight that lead to 4 lane highway I get this guy in an eagle talon of all things that wanted to race me. The light turned green and I was in first gear all the way to 70mph before that powerglide switched into drive, meanwhile that talon noob driver was trying to shift his manual for all he was worth. I finally got out of it when my front end started to lift up at 120mph.

That was back when I was young and stupid. I wouldn't do that now for nothing =o)

I used to smoke ricers all the time in my parents old 92 F350 Crewcab 4x4 with a 460 FI. That motor was pretty stout and I smoked alot of ricers in it. That 460 sucked alot of gas but it would flat haul some ass for as big as that truck was.

I have also put alot of ricers down for the count in my 73 Jeep CJ5. It has a 304 V8 and it will get a whole shot on alot of things, especially a 4 cylinder fart canner.

numerous hondas with shopping car wings... thats nothing to brag about.

the one that sticks in my head the most the car cold have easily beat me but the driver didn thave the guts. stop light to stop light at about 11:30pm on a friday night. two lights till im off base. (keep in mind, USMC Base camp pendleton is not a place to fool around like this but going off base and not comming back on for a day or two im comfy doing it) first light he played a bit. neither one of us got on it all the way. second light i put the hammer down as did he. both had a small chirp on first, this got the gate guards attention and both were looking at us hauling down the next 1/4 mile till off base. i chirped going into second and third and started to pull away, his auto shifted and started to catch up quick, into 4th and i was leaving again. he then backed off and crossed the line for off base fun... i slowed down and he honked as he passed. he was a good sport about it...

mine being a stick is a lot slower, but i have learned how to drive it faster than most could. the exhaust brake makes the hills fun. i get to push the truck a lot more than i would without it.

anyway, street light to street light if i get into third right ill beat most stock cars. my truck is stock so i try to play only with stockers.

What kind of car were you racing??

haha, what a stupid thread. its a 7k truck, its not supposed to move fast. if you want a racecar go buy a stripped down light weight 2wd short bed regular cab pickup, or a sports car.
this stupid street racing is a waste of time. my power mods are for hill pulling, not for lining up next to little cars with I4's.
FYI, i have a fast truck ,but dont use it for that.....

You totally missed the point of this thread.:doah: I am pretty sure it is to show how stupid ricers are and if you did not mod your truck to eat rice then dont post about how stupid everyone else is as I am sure their rigs will also pull just fine. Who cares if they like to have fun when the bed is emptywaytogo .

Thanks for sharing. Now move on to another thread and quit trying to ruin it for the rest of us waytogo .

The best is when your running a long hill pulling a trailor and some punk is riding your butt trying to pass you going down hill, but when the incline comes and you pass them up hill pouring smoke all over em. Can't beat it.

Agreed, my 01' Cummins is my first diesel. Me being used to gas motors I got used to downshifting going uphill, my Cummins doesnt even downshift pulling my K5, that is a great feeling when you pass the A#@ hole who thought he was all bad passing you when he was GOING DOWNHILL! Also, I will not lie, I modded my truck to "pull" better too, but I love beatin cocky guys in cars! The look on their faces are priceless!

I've smoked a bunch of ricers with my 5.3. I also beat my friend in his Dad's new F-150. THe 5.3 is a pretty quick motor.
Another friend's brother has a '89 Ram 350 dually with a newer Cummins he swapped in. Its also got stacks. I've seen him smoke a guy in a built Mustang with it!

I think all the fun is in the fact that I can get a 7000# truck to go as fas as a Vette. Why buy a stripped down race car?!

My rudest moment that comes to mind, well, I can't stop laghing!

Ok, I had a 2002 HO Cummins, Straight 4" piped, and a ton of fuel (thank you edge!) and a 6 speed. Well, after a year of hot rodding it around Chico, CA, I'd learned how to fog out whole intersections. Well, this Jackass in a civic or what ever with a wing was playing peekabo in my mirrors. After about 2 miles of this guy runing up next to me and then winding back up behind me I'd had enough. He wound up next to me at the next light. My buddy in the passenger seat is telling me to blow his doors off, but I had a better idea. he had both front windows open . . . .
So, I watch the other lights and they go yellow, almost my turn. Put is in second, just start to drag the clutch.
Green! Drop the clutch, grab fuel, and short shifter the crap out of it, grabbed 3rd at like 1500 rpms, and nailed it hard on top setting! I smoked so hard going past his windows that exhaust smoke came out of the passenger side of the car!!! We couldn't stop laughing. Needless to say, he stayed way away after that!

HAHA thats awesome!!! I love to roll smoke on jerks like that.

rotflLOL!!!! I Love it!!!!waytogo

Beat a 7.3 today, sorry Budkole. ;) We were on the highway and I was pacin him after he had passed me. He punched it at about 70, and we went up to 100, with me having to slow down 3 times so as to not hit him (he was in my lane). There were a few cars in front, so he slowed down, and I went by in the next lane, he fell back.

A few minutes later, I was doin about 70, and I see him closin FAST! He was goin at least 90, so I floored it again up to 105, and the poor guy started gettin smaller in the rear view. He didn't want to play no mo after that and exited off soon after.

I bet the other drivers got a scare when they saw two huge trucks followin each other at over 100. :eek: These trucks are so strong (any of them), so fun to race another one.

I did see a Duramax smoke alot of imports and domestic cars and trucks this weekend at the drag strip out of ten races only losing two.I have to say I was very impressed with the trucks capability.

I can't wait till I really put the fuel to the new 06 and see what kind of kills she can tally!

passing a convertaible the other day and he was going to get cocky with me and gas it so i turned the chip on and blew smoke all over his parade....rotfl ..... is this a normal thing for diesel owners

Funny, the other day I was driving the wifes car and as I pulled up along side the passenger side of a Powerstroke at a red light (it had 5" exhaust etc.) I rolled up my window, the Wife said "what are you doing it's 90 degrees out" I told her, when you see a diesel exhaust that big and your parked right next to it, you might want to roll the windows up. Sure enough, black smoke everywhere. :D

So I am leaving work yesterday morning and a guy I work with is right behind me. He has a 99 F-250 7.3 that is in the shop right now so he's driving a loaner truck. We have a long access road into our place of employment. I look in my mirror and see him ease out beside me in the opposite lane. I have already got my comp set on 5-5(I know how he is and wanted to be ready just in casehttp://www.thedieselgarage.com/forums/images/smilies/evil3.gif ).I had to let off at 115mph because egt's were at 1450* (time for a new exhaust)and I was running out of road anyway. When he caught up at the traffic light we were both laughing our a**es off. I'm not sure how far ahead I was for all the smoke but it took him a little while to pull up next to mehttp://www.thedieselgarage.com/forums/images/smilies/lmao.gif .

He's got the 7.3 back today and we will be running the same stretch of road tomorrow. I'll let y'all know what happens.

My father once had to drive his dump truck into a sub division for deliverys old man used to yell at all the trucks coming and doing dad down shifted and gave his Mack WOT belched smoke all over him and his flowers never complained anymore eitherrotfl

FYI, i have a fast truck ,but dont use it for that..... wana come hook up to the sled and for a real test........ burning ricers is one of the best things to do on a friday night who cares if it is dumb i have fun with it just like how i think what you do is stupid but dont come on here saying were dumb if you dont like it move on and dont post about it. and when your 7k truck beat a rice boy dont you say holy S!@# that crew cab just smoked that lil ricer it braging rights that your truck puts down 650hp and 900/lbs/trq

Hey why not smack em around a bit its a good good show to see ricer beat by big ol truck even my super duty much slower than yalls diesels have shocked a few cold air intakes and big fart cans dont mean crap you have to know your car or truck

There was a cocky "my diesel is the baddest thing" idiot on the interstate a while back... but he couldn't even keep up with the 4.0 Explorer I was driving. I guess you could call him a diesel ricer? He thinks he is cool, but really isn't.

I once beat a Cummins leaving Dunlap going up Hwy 111 it was kinda funny cause he had the fuel turned up billowing out black smoke,we all have our days just not everyday.

I smoked a chipped and exhausted 96' P-stroke the other day in my stock Crewcab V-10 Superduty ..... that was a good feeling

lol i love it. i have only raced my truck twice won both of em. the firtst one i think something was messed up with the guys car or im just used to driving my truck and dont realize how quick it is. in quincy one night heading back to mark twain lake anyway a guy in alate 90's im guessin ram air trans am pulls up mean sounding exhaust and all. first stop light kinda messed with eachother goosin it not reakly runnin em. 2nd stop light my buddys like smoke this dude i started laughin i dotn know if it will. green light i didnt really get on just took off he did the same finally get to 4th gear were pretty even and i hear him romp it so i did all that happend was i pulled away i couldnt frickin beleive it he pulled off to a side street shortly after that all i could do was laugh and have a cheesey smile for an hour or so. the next race i had was with against my buddies 4 wheeler lol honda 400 ex with soem work done to it. he gets me till i hit 3rd and its over. i know not realy equal but still fun. same guy with the four wheeler has a ealy 80s chevy with a worked up motor in it 383 stroker im pretty sure. 500 horse he says and that he wants to run em i dont know illhave to see after tax returns come in lol might add a lil somethin to the rig before i race him.

more of a chase than a race ok this happened 2 mornings ago....takin a cruise through the country here in central illinois before work when my buddy/co-worker says hey theres a coyote. where, rite there ok i see it lol turn off the main road onto a gravel farm access road the yote sees us and is like oh **** takes off crosses the access drive and into a bean field im in hot pursuit keep in mind stock truck here with exception to the engine and exhaust mods. stock tires and all and mine werent the allterrains i had the michelin street tires and at 40 000 miles theya rent in the greatest of shape. hit the bean field at about 35 man major rumble strip fields have been froze solid for over a week no give at all...catch up to him he does a quick side juke and does a180 i whip it around and he does this a few more times i finally get him in to the controlled circle chase that you use to wear them out before you take em out. just chasin him in a big loop a few times. finally he stumbles and i get antsy and get on hi ass again but hes not done yet and pulls a move that would impress barry sanders i would have corralled him again but we were to close to a tree line and he got away would have made a nice trophy kill as far as coyotes go he was a pretty big one but he deserved to get away i guess lol he gave me and my truck all i wanted im supprised my truck didnt fall apart if yall never went tear assing through a frozen field in a stock truck i wouldnt reccomend it lol so i got smoked by wild e coyote if i coulda hooked up(need new tread) i would have had him oh well excuses excuses excuses

I bet that farmer is pissed lol

nah it wsa actually one of my buddies fields and it was froze solid so it didnt do anything but brush the light dusting of snow we had the night before off the dirt

LOL, could you imagine something that is 100x your weight bearing down on you? I bet that coyote was scared ****less. rotfl

i tell ya what man this chase lasted a solid 10-15 minutes and that dog was tired and to be honest i though i was gonna shake all my damn teeth loose. but the look that coyote gave me when i turned down that acces lane lol it was liek he had been there and done that all before it was pretty funny he already knew what was gonna happen

Heres a good one - watching Dr. Performance run a 8.4 sec. 1/4 mile in Houston last year in his Cummins 12valve. Smoking everybodies ass.waytogo

ok i got my ass handed to me the other night...suburuski wrx, not becase of the trucks performance but because of the drivers...hung it shifting from 2nd to 3rd damn 6 speed lol so there wasnt much of a race at all realy. i like those cars and wanted to see how fast they really were, it looked pretty quick but then again i wasnt rollin to damn fast lol all i know is by the time i got er back in gear the wrx was a way in front of me oh well maybe next time ya win some ya lose some... i do hate it being a driver error though

Dude, believe me, even if you had your best driving skills that night, the WRX would have smoked you, especially if it was and STI. I know people who own those (including my Math Teacher) who have made them EXTREMELY FAST lol

ya i know, this thing sounded like a souped up crotch rocket a lil throatier though lol chaces are he was only puttin out about 50- 100 less hp than me mayeb not but the weight alone is a large factor still no excuse shoulda hit the gears...oh ya who makes the quick shift sticks for the 6 speed dodges? is it bd i cant remember i went to teh site before but you had to download the price sheet and my pc wouldnt let me open it up i was just wondering approx price on them

LOL i just looked at your signature.....he also has a huge aerodynamic advantage since you have a lift and big tires. lol

no not yet in a month or so ii will but it is stock size now

My favorite one was right after i got my bully dog and my clutch was still good, i was on the crazy larry setting and a newer corvette pulled up next to me. it was a younger kid prob 16 or 17, he reved his engine and i reved mine, the light turned green and we took off, he was pullin away but when i hit 3rd gear i pulled away fast, and won, this continued on the highway at 100+. its fun beatin a corvette. and ive got 35's and a leveling kit.

nice a vette is a great trophy story waytogo

the best look bye-far is the look that his pretty girlfriend gives you when your truck covered in mud with big tires blows the doors off his little tuner car with a custom pain and the whole 9 yards

just gotta smile and wave:D

yeh it was a great feeling indeed...i had a smile on my face for about a week after that!

A few weeks ago I was heading back from a diesel shop in Lakeside going to Del Mar, when I get on the freeway I noticed a brand new White dodge cummins when I passed him i gave a good stare he looked back at me and then the game was on we raced for nearly 25 miles and I let the coal roll several times on him and I could see him smiling and giving me a thumbs up when I got off on my exit I noticed he was behind me then he pulled up next to me and gave each other thumbs up.waytogo I think it was pretty cool of him to race around for that long and take going through the soot several times.

Another story is that we were at a stoplight and this girl was on her cell phone in the turn lane well i was going to go straight i knew she was going to cut me off so when the light turned green she cut me off so I flashed my HID lights at her then i got into the lane next to her and went right up to her window and stared at her when she turned to look at me I blew her a kiss and put my chip into the 6 setting (140 hp) and then accelerated a little further forward once my exhaust was near her window I let the coal roll and accelerated to 70 mph (quiet road) I could not see her truck behind me :stir:. I think she learned her lesson about being on the cell phone and cutting people off :pimp:.


those are my stories

Andrew

Alright so im driving my dads Denali down this road and i saw this Tundra pull next to me just driving by. My dads Denali has about 380hp and im sure the tundra is close. So this guy takes off to get around the guy in front of him and he is acting all tuff about it and looks over at me. So i take off and im pushing like 85mph on this 45mph street. Eventually i pulled away and he turned off. I know i could have dominated his ass.

that would be a pretty nice ticket...
