Raced a 6.0 last night

hey guys just wante to add another one for the good guys last night. We were at the bar (i wasn't drink had to be at work at 5 this morning) playing pool and a guy a couple of years older than me walks in and starts talking about how bad his 06' 350 is and how he will run anyone in the bar in the 1/4 and hook up to anyone. needless to say i told him to puthis money where his mouth is. So we head down t a local back road that everyone runs at and we lined them up. he was a 350 fx4 with an edge banks dual, intake, and an auto, off the line he was about half a link ahead but whenever hit 3rd we were neck and neck but when i hit 4th it was game over and all he saw was the ram head on my tail gate. so when we stop he tells me his edge was not cranked all the way so we lined it up again and it was the same song all over again. well then he said he wants to hook them up. so again i told him to put his money where his mouth was (i always have a very big/ heavy tow strap in my tool box. i have never done this before so to be honest i wasnt to sure about my self i knew the truck could but i didnt want to mess up. i started by just easying out on the clutch cuz i didnt wanna break them lose well he punched it from the get go and he was pulling me back at first but when i hit 2nd he was spinning and thew ole goat just moved on along that nuthin was even back there. needless to say i think i had more fun showin that ford what this dodge can do than hangin at the bar playin pool, and it was awful nice of him to donate to this poor boys dodge fund. I till didnt get to sleep this morning till 3:30 cuz i was just so pumped up, i would have loved to seen this guys face if i had the power that some of you guys have on here. well you guys have i good day today just had to share it with yall. im gonna work on trying to stay awake today

I was going to say the same thing,you would have cleaned his clock wih a highway 60mph roll on. Poor Ford guy,you just totally ruined his whole night.He now needs to find a new Dodge Cummins or a new bar to hang out at ,LOL.
