i do not endorse street racing......
i prefer corvettes and porsches =)
Just to see how I keep up with them... they are quite surprised...
your an embarrassing story. did u not read the part about him bucking and then loading up on the brakes. i semi-know this kid and he has a reputation for thinking his truck is the fastest thing on the streets. his truck is a 2006, sierra with a 5.3 vortec, chipped, intake, exhaust, probably making 350-360hp. so i can understand him thinking it is fast-ish. and it weighs around 4300lbs as well.Pick 'em truck driver says: Uhhh, . . why would you waste your gas and put the wear and tear on your car to race me in my old pick up truck? Shouldn't you be racin' those fancy M3's, Audi RS4's and C63's? Oh well, I guess it's just like me beatin' on the smallers kids in high school. It's still fun to know I owned 'em even if I knew it was never a contest.
This is an embarrassing story on both sides.
Exactly Brother!! I raced so many sh** cans with fancy exhaust and intake and I just tear them apart..Especially around my neighborhood the ones with Maximas or Altimas think they're the sh** when in reality they're SH**!!your an embarrassing story. did u not read the part about him bucking and then loading up on the brakes. i semi-know this kid and he has a reputation for thinking his truck is the fastest thing on the streets. his truck is a 2006, sierra with a 5.3 vortec, chipped, intake, exhaust, probably making 350-360hp. so i can understand him thinking it is fast-ish. and it weighs around 4300lbs as well.
the whole point of the story is, he didnt have a clue. its not like i was lookin for a race, he just needed to be shown.
You ever try racing a pickup with a turbo diesel in it? You'll be surprised....News flash! Lexus IS F faster than a pickup truck! This is an embarrassing story.
ANYTHING can be made faster than the IS F. My point is you gotta resist the temptation and not be racing anyone that comes along just because they're stepping hard on the gas of their trash and manure haulin' pickup, or Civic Si, or twin turbo'd Camry, or whatever. Putting people in their place? Pleeease? You still won't convince them even after you won. You gotta ignore the little freaks. You are driving an expensive, fast, luxury car and not some freakish thing that can do low 11's in the quarter mile and can't do anything else. Your car can do it all so be smart and and resist the street racing temptation.You ever try racing a pickup with a turbo diesel in it? You'll be surprised....![]()

Wise thing to do! Now if I could just resist the temptation..LOL! Actually, my wife puts me on check all the time. Thank God for her!ANYTHING can be made faster than the IS F.

Dont make it sound like I race everything now, I actually dont race in my car, I go to Atcoraceway and run it once in a while when a bunch of my goofy friends wants to have fun. My 11month old daughter is in my Lexus all the time I go out, so I drive rather normal, Im just trying to point out a STOCK diesel pick up truck with a little chip in it can be very fast, thus dont think that the F is faster than everything you see on the Road. thats all....ANYTHING can be made faster than the IS F.
