Great Smoke Stories!

[C. Harlan]

damn. guess if y'all are eating them, and I am not, I should get to work!!!!!

 

[C. Harlan]

Well, I feel a little better, and so does the truck!

She got to eat a Mustang GT tonight. . now she is full, at least for 24 hours or so!! haha, I was on the way home from going to the cleaners, and got out of the city limits, passed the sheriff taking pictures(Shooting radar), noticed a 'Stanger GT on my tail..... I just pushed the sootmaker to the floor, and off we were! I go to make the turnaround to get to the house, and I notice the ford is trying to hang... Ok, cool! I let her rip! 3rd, 4th, and 5th!!! then we make a turn onto the parkway leading up to the neighborhood, and he/she pulls up besides me. . haha, go ahead! dont be mad when Black Betty eats you up, takes your @ss, goes for a ride, and hands it back to you a mile down the road! we race, and as I row through my gears, I figure a V8 would have more balls. guess I was wrong. Oh well. I won.

Chris, you should have no problem beating a stock vr-6. My girlfriend has 01 VR-6 with a manual and it is not even close to keeping up with my truck. The one you played with had to of been tweaked.



I try to play with people every day but it seems nobody want to around here. I have to admit that blowing the doors off of a unsuspecting "fast car" with a 7,000+ lb diesel truck is absolutely priceless I have spent a lot of money on many different hobbies over the years but none that I have had this much fun with, almost every day of the year!

OK! got some pics of my own, finally! Here we go!



This is at the Dyno Day, with STOCK injectors!

 

[C. Harlan]

Here is the second run. . and they thought they could suck all the smoke out! haha

Pulled in to buy Cream for the next mornings coffee.

2003 sitting there waiting for me to get into my speckled truck (Paint peeling everywhere)



He sure did have a good loud pipe on the thing.

He took off like a rocket.

Too bad he spent his cash on his sound and not his trucks motivation!



MUHAHAHA. Meet the TQ of a 12V, puppy!!!!



Roasted him and smoked his a$$. Badly.



Only trouble is, I think I sent my karma out of flux.

I smoked another Dodge. Does that count?



So the guy follows me home and wants to know how I beat him when he KNOWS I "dont even have over 185HP" and he has 300+... .



There is a red one around here that I saw two nights ago with loud ex. and a ex brake on it. Gonna have to run him too.



So, does smoking another Dodge count if you are racing?:--) :--) :--) :--)

 

[C. Harlan]

heck yeah it counts!! They are fair game!



Here is some pics now, right after I got my 191's put in, before I blew the HX35...

[C. Harlan]

remember the west nile virus craze?? Well I was doing my part helping keep the 'skeeters out of my neighborhood...

 

[C. Harlan]

Here is a pic of Dean (WeirCummin)'s truck on the dyno back in July 2002... he laid down some impressive numbers, and that was my first time to go to a dyno event, though I did not run.

Yea, but you should make it an educational thing, rather than a hostile thing.

Smokin' another Dodge, eh? Here's my story about just such a thing today! When they're pr!cks, it's always legal!



I was enroute from Arizona to San Diego to visit my sister for Thanksgiving. I'm cruising at 75, 5 over the posted limit. I see this bright red '03 flying up on me fast, so the box goes to kill. He gets in behind me, and I'm cruising in the fast lane (I was passing everyone at 75, but this guy was in a BIG hurry). There's an 18-wheeler about 350 yards up in the slow lane, but that was it, so he decides he needs to make his move to the right and pass me like I'm standing still... fell right into the hand I played! As he yanks to the right, and starts his move, I roll on the smoke... I finally hit full soot-pedal and spool up as his front fender comes up next to my door... just enough so I can see the Cummins badge glistening against the bright shiny red! Well, the race was on, but it wasn't much... +50 PSI boost, M3's, and the Drag Comp put him in his place rather quickly, and I backed out at 110 MPH when I thought I had easily proven my point (that being that while you might be flying past most like their standing still, you can't do it to everyone!). So, he pulls back in behind me, I slow to 85 and pass the truck... soon as around the truck I pull into the slow lane to let him around... I was gonna give him a wave and a nod just to let him know it was cool and I was just playin' with him... no hard feelings, and I didn't slow him down a bit, so how could he be ******? Well, turns out that they bread 'em different on I-8 in southern California, cause when he rolled up next to me, I looked over at him gave the nod and the wave... what's he do you ask? He rolls down his severly-tinted window and gives me the one-finger salute! Turns out I really AM #1! I just laughed at him and sat next to him up to 90 to prove my point... when you're a tool, people can own you at will!



Bright red, slightly cali-lifted (front higher then the back) '03 or '04 quad-cab, short box w/ a canopy. Older fella, 'bout 45-55... anybody know who it is? I'd say he was none-too happy with the performance of his '03 versus that "old 2nd Gen"... hahahaha.



BTW, I still had over 70 gallons of diesel on me

nobody wants to play with me around here!! i try everday!! maybe its the 5" exhaust? scaring them away? i even tried a brand new corvette knowing he would take me but he didnt want anything to do with me!! so i got in front of him and gave him a nice cloud!! i would really feel better about racing on the highway if a had a turbo!! it gets to hot to fast with the stock one! maybe one of these days ill get to have a story!

I kind of tried. But you cannot educate someone who demands to see the "03 motor you must have put in your truck"...



Duuuuuuuuuuuuuhr.



The passenger actually called out from the side of my truck...



"Hey, this guy has two trannies in this truck. Thats how he beat you. "



(Talking about the auto shifter still being on the column after a 5 speed conversion. )



I think these fellas were a couple of "blings".

Sounds like someone stayed on the short yellow school bus too long.

I got a great story for y'all!!!



Yesterday (Thanksgiving Eve) I was sitting at a light on the highway, and next to me was a loaded semi truck, rolling up to a stop... well, at the last second, with barely any room, some idiot decides he wants to pull in there, and cut the truck off, so he does not have to wait. The far right lane is a turn lane, so alot of people do this, and I take every opportunity to smoke these idiots! Well, he cuts the truck off, driver gets mad, and the guy in the car has 2 kids in baby seats in the back. I honked at the driver in the big truck, and told him dont worry, that I would get the car back for him... light goes green, we all start moving, and I get up to the little car, get ahead of him, give him 3rd, 4th, and 5th gear sootings! all I hear is the guy in the semi blowing his horn in my support! haha, well, the guy in the car backed off, and quit driving stupid, but to think he had 2 kids in the car, and cut off that semi truck like that. wow. moron! Oh well, thats my story.

Got another 2 for 1 deal again today!

The first encounter was on the way home, just as I had passed over I-35 on 281, when I got into the left lane... Little BMW 3 series gets so close on my tail, then moves over as if to show me his headlights and front grille... ha!!! He didnt even get a warning shot. Get too close, you dont get a warning shot! Well, going about 55, in 6th gear, I lugged it, and rode it out, while smoking him out. He dropped about 300 yards back, and even got into another lane... Moron.



The second Encounter was about 4 miles down the road, some moron in a stock F250 4 door shortbed (How cute, Now get a real size truck) 4x4 PSD decides he wants to get on my butt and play. I fired off a few warning clouds at him, which enticed him more. . Well, lane opened up, I eased away, with him sticking to me like flies on fresh cow shizzle, then BOOM! Drop the bomb, leave him in a cloud of smoke! I get about a ½ mile ahead of him, and slowed down, but he didnt want to play. . guess he will be wanting to get 'chipped' now... lol oh well. . that was my fun for Monday!
