24 valve Cummings!

On my way home cruzin along, not in a hurry, just enjoying a nice night drive home. A cop had a white dodge pulled over and by the time I was going by the cop left and the dodge was about to pull out. So here I am with this dodge following pretty close and I'm just like whatever, still cruzin. I get to stop sign and I notice he follows me so I give it little and jump up to 60 then slow down to the speed limit and he gets on my ass again. So I turn down my road and he still follows me, so now he is right on my ass and looks likes he wants to pass so I keep it at 45. The next thing I know he smashes on it and moves to pass. As soon as he gets to my cab I smash on it and he has the jump and pulls by and he gets his tailgate to my front bumper. His truck was loud as hell and dumping out a ton of smoke! For a second I thought he was going to keep pulling on me but my 2nd gear pulls hard as hell and I caught him and just fly by! It was nice showing him what's up!

Cummins....

Luke beat me to it. Must have been one of those dummies who think just puking black smoke makes them fast.

My bad, my phone was auto correcting it, and I know that just cuz it blows smoke doesn't make it fast, but this thing had some balls, he was pullin hard till about 80 when I caught him, im sure he had a programmer and exhaust. Nothing special, but whatever

ROR! programer and exhaust if thats all he had he wouldent beable to catch a honda :LOL:

good you showed him whats up with a chevy lol. but i wouldnt put it past smoke blowers, some put out some power even with just programmers and exhaust, banks for example., they're just not great for racing

Very nice kill. I have a buddy with an '02 24 valve that thought he was hot stuff. That is until he challenged me, and got walked by what was then a stone stock red Chevy 1/2 ton. Most guys that have Cummins don't understand enough about them, or diesels in general for that matter, to do anything except make them loud and waste tons of fuel making smoke.:twocents:

I would love a Duramax though, this little red chevy can't tow for $#!t.

Yall are way off on this subject. I just got out of the whole diesel trip and they are FAST!! There are many of them cummins with just a chip or two and exhaust running 13's, but it aint banks crap. That stuffs a joke! An as for them not being good for racing, they are turning times just like the fast turbo gassers, i believe the fastest common rail cummins is in the 9's and its a street truck as well. Not siding with them or starting a war with yall just stating the facts. There is actually an 11 sec one from bryan college station an its his daily driver.

not to be a dick but... do u relise the money it costs to go 9's in a common rail cummins? ANYTING with that much turbo can go 9's, cummins are crap and you can quote me on that! find a cummins with the same mods as my duramax and see if he can keep up cus he cant. a stacked chip truck isnt close to fast, if you think 13's are fast you need a reality check... im bearly in the 12's and thats still slow. yes im stock engine stock injectors stock fuel pump i have a built trans a mild tune intake and exhaust thats it. Most these cummins think there fast cus they watched fast and the furious and though a nissan altama could run 9's :LOL: so once they beat one, there worse than ricer math called "white trash math" made them think they were fast

end thread

I donno... I've seen some bad ass deisels. It's never really about what you have it's about how much money you can throw at it. I had a buddy with a turbo gsr integra crush a viper, and I've had my ass handed to me by a cummins in my gf's 09 si. Which I couldn't keep up with until recently. Yea it doesn't really "feel" fast except in first gear when you crack vtech, but it revs like a freakin street bike and doesn't weigh anything. A modded deisel with 12 1300 ft lb's isn't going to have a problem pullin an 8000 pound truck around. But I guess it's all about weight gears and power, just need a good combo..
