The One upper

So I stop to pick up dinner last night. Walk in waiting at the counter. Here comes some dude that looks familiar but I cant place him ( you know one of those moments where you ask yourself if you need to act like you know just who he is to not be rude ) He speaks up first saying hey you look familiar. I say the same we "shoot the breeze" for a minute. He asked if I really had a LS1 motor in my truck. (LS1truck sticker is on the back) To which I reply naw just a LS style. 5.3 with a good bit done. So he starts like o well its not a LS1 so whatever. Im like dude there isnt just a MASSIVE difference once you start working on them. And im like Ill have it fast when I finaly get a turbo built for it. So then he starts telling me that Turbos are stupid. They dont belong on v8s. Its retarded. I TRY to explain that the LS motors react to turbos quite well and time after time its made a 10 sec combo in highly modified motors. While S/Cs on the other hand usually can get you high 12s easily but you got to push them harder to get more. So then he starts with the THATS SLOW either way. And how he had a old s-10 that was bone stock with a 4.3 v6 that ran 13s all day. At this point... I am runnin over in my head to I call BS on this guy right here in front of everyone or just walk off. And Im like you know Its easy to say 12 but its hard to do. And for a stock truck with no crap done run a 13... maybe a syclone but there isnt one in my area. So this dude is FULL OF IT. SO I walk off. Just pushed my buttons.

It bothers me to no end. He had no idea I guess what a LS1 is. He just knew it was fast. Doesnt know what a LS motor is. Thought turbos only went on cars in the slow and the silly. :blahblah:And stock 90 modle s-10s run a 13. I wonder what track he was at when he did that?:toetap:

I hate those guys. I'll talk bad about turbos, but thats just cause I dont like turbos, I would never say they are dumb or that they dont belong on something or dont work.

Oh yeah? Well my stock 4.3 with all the other minor stuff I've done that I ignore when I say it's stock can make a pass all the way to the finish line and then make it back to the starting line before you hit the traps.....

Well to each his own. Some like N/A some love Superchargers others are obsessed with n2o Alot want Turbos. Each have great results if properly put together. Im not the kind of person to tell someone there idea is stupid. If I disagree I will ask questions in the hope of learning something but I wont call them wrong then throw a complete b.s. remark in about something. It had me pretty ticked off that day.

Yeah I guess I could bs them right back. But when it comes to someone like that I just tend to not have time for it.
Personally Im sick of all the "time guessing" that goes on in my town. People around here race someone who raced someone who got them by this many and that guy said their time from that time at the track was this much. One dude went around town claiming high 12s.... He didnt beat me... on 22s and anyone at SAR can tell you Im a smoke show on 22s. But he thought he was 12s cause the PREVIOUS owner of his truck did a 12 when he was on slicks *and spray from what we found out* But this guy has never actually been to a track. I got a feeling the TOPPER in the op may have had the same assumption disease. I got a feeling the TOPPER had never been to a track a day in his life. Or ever drove a 14 sec ride let alone a 13. Once you get 14s you realize it isnt just talk to do a 13 and its a good bit of work for a 12

The next time your faced with an obvious topper just look him dead in the eye, arrange your hands like you are showing him the size of a good fish, and say, "You know, I like to suck penis' this big."

I bet he won't top that. :lol:

One shouldn't knock a turbo till they have tried it. The boost is absolutely amazing.

Hey Devin--why don't you go work on a POS Ford.

Oh wait--you don't do that anymore. You can't even work on a Ford the right way. :lol: JFWY.

The mustaches were grown simply for the retarded "wow" factor. Have you grown one? CAN you grow one? NO and NO. When you have the cajones to do so, doors will open everywhere: I got VIP treatment at several bars in Dallas (as in they let me bypass the line and I walked right in); you are automatically given a Sheriff's badge; random chicks walk up to you at bars and make out with you (actually happened--I have several witnesses); you can legally beat women; etc. The list is endless...
