'Fess Up Speed Demons
This always seems to happen to me: Driving to work on the I-35 access road- stop at a red light and a yahoo in a new (usually Dodge Ram) pulls close and does the "jump". 20 years ago i would have given him the nod and gripped the wheel- but I'm old, I have braces to buy for the kids, and i usally have a bunch of cr*p in the pickup bed from Home Depot.
My truck is pretty-much stock looking- it does have a somewhart lopey cammed idle-(has the GM Crate 330 HP long block under the hood) Even though racing days are over, I wonder.. how would she do against a 4 door Dodge Hemi Pickup... Hooking up would be a problem, but a good romp of the right foot will put my speedometer at 3 o'clock PDQ. My questions- to you you guys younger and braver: What have you squared-up against at a red light. How did you do? Think my old '71 would have schooled that ole hemi? |
