So, leaving my kids basketball game, the stars aligned haha as no traffic, and just me and my pops '16 ltz 6.2 Chevy met on about a 1 mile stretch of straight road.
Now my dad is always bagging on my "woodchipper engined, covered wagon riding" 1 ton dodge. While constantly bragging about his corvette engined, fastest truck there is, blah, blah, blah. All in good fun of course. I have driven his truck, and honestly didn't think I stood a chance as it "feels" fast, and the cummins just doesn't.
I happened to be set on the highest tune as I was doing some mileage comparisons between tunes. Still, my truck just doesn't "feel" fast, torquey yes, Anyway, behind him going about 30, I pull over into other lane to get it on, as I hear his truck start screaming. I am just at his back corner when the boost starts kicking in and then it shifts, settles in, and I start walking him pretty bad. By the time I hit about 100 he is 1.5-2 lengths behind me, and I can still hear his truck screaming haha. I then called him and asked him if he needed help putting his doors back on, and how did his corvette engined truck fall to an 8000lb woodchipper hahaha. He could only say "man, that was unexpected , yeah, unexpected for sure lol.
