Red face First kill after cam install

Was cruising along doin about 75-80 on a 55 speed limit road, this jackass in a new looking 3/4 ton 4x4 extended cab chevy came up and started riding my ***.

We finally got to a wide open straight-away, i saw him pull out to pass and downshifted from 6th to 4th. He got so his rear tire was at my door when i finally got my RPMs up and came into the cam

I pulled on him and finally shifted into 5th, looked down and was doing 120

Was suprised he could even get close to passing me, granted im still running the stock tune and i should have downshifted to 3rd instead of 4th. But anyway this ******* had it comming.

Why is it that people with trucks always think they're so fast?
A V-8 doesn't make you fast if all that power is wasted dragging around 3 tons with it...

Good kill, but it sounds like you would have beaten him stock too, need to go find something that could have beaten you stock and make his eyes pop.
