Any body else do this daily??

[JLEONARD]

OK. I'll admit it. Every day I floor it and see what the boost gae reads and what I see for EGT.

Am I the only one who does this?

I love the power that my CTD has... . so I test my truck pretty much daily.

I love the "looks" I get from Ford drivers, Chebby dribers, Saab Dudettes, and the list continues... . need I go on??

OK, since you started it..... I want to be next to a new power joke (one with a Calvin peeing on a Rams head in the rear window). I'll floor it from the start, leaving him in a cloud of black smoke. Arriving at the next light well ahead of him, I'll be eating a sandwich and ignore him when he pulls alongside. Then, when he floors it from that light, I'll come trailing along real slowly so I can watch the State Trooper writing his ticket.



Oh yeah, to answer your question, I only do it on the days I drive.

Your not the only one... Trust me Im sure there are a few people that i pass on my way to work in the morning's that will agree even a few other members.

 

[MMiller]

I don't do it every day, mainly cause I don't drive the truck every day. :{ But yeah I do a boost, smoke, and ls diff check every trip, and I always run a getrag gear strength test every time out. So far no failures.

It's about the most fun you can

[Greenleaf]

What? Act my age?!

I'll admit,,,,



I am certainly enticed when I'm near another Dodge/Diesel or a Furd and Chubby diesel truck for that matter.



Then I come across the occasional hot rod rice... ... ... ... ... .....



So yeah, pretty darn near evereytime I'm out on the road.



I honestly didn't know that non-diesel owners REALLY DON'T like to have smoke billowing out onto their cars!!! I get the finger some times.



This childish behavior is limited to the time between April and October My Ford Ranger don't throw no smoke :{

[JLEONARD]

in reality you're all performing an act of faith

I guess I really do believe!! :-laf :-laf

 

[Greenleaf]

Now that I think about it... ... ... ...



I'll have a whole new set of paramiters to dial in and test come April. Give me a good excuse to lay some nice patches. I have nearly bald rear tires too, so it'll be no holds barred.

Oh yeah, I also like driving through downtown Richmond between 0430 and sunrise, setting off the car alarms of all the BMWs and Mercedes, on those oh so narrow streets.

 

[nascar mark]

Nope, I drive it like a little old lady on the way to church. :-laf

Were you on your way to church when you got in that wreck??? :-laf :-laf

Yeah sure- don't you mean like a cop to a donut shop?

 

[MXTMOPR]

Yeah on a daily basis

I carefully plan my bombing runs, slowly cruising beside all the 4 wheel cages and scanning for open windows. When an open window is spotted, I analyze the occupants of said "cage". If its a mom with a few little ones I smirk and move onto the next victim. Once a target of suitable nature is aquired, someone with the cute "bling" exhaust or a dolt in a "DUMMER" the mission is carried out. Strategic placement just ahead of them at a light is the best. Even if they manage to cut a better light than me, I can catch them and really lay on the soot pedal and hear that turbo sing over my straight pipe aimed directly at the windows. The wife even gets a charge out of bombing the cagers. As my decal on the bed says "Bikers have more fun than people do"

Oooooooooo... . Mark that's gonna leave marks bud... ... :-laf :-laf :-laf

I could have sworn I saw in a manual somewhere that boost & EGT were part of the food pyramid . . . we need 3 servings a day.
