I never met a project I didn’t like
DISCLAIMER: The below account was done on a closed course......do not attempt at home 
This is a text I sent to a friend of mine when I got home. A lot easier than retyping it all, ha.
Soooo, I totally just owned a Cummins!! First race with a diesel and I got him! I pulled out behind him, he was 3rd in a line of cars. You'll see in the pic I took later but he was the typical lifted Dodge with tires sticking out and a big exhaust tip. Shockingly his tow mirrors were folded down!!
Anyway as we were driving another big Dodge came at us in the other direction and this dude did a coal salute to him....so then I knew he was a playa. I stayed behind him for probably 10 miles on a 2 lane highway (I was on my way home from picking up a trailer hitch). Then we were finally on a divided 4 lane highway. We were stuck in traffic, but when it cleared he got on it and so did I. We got up to about 80 and I hung!
So then we were at a red light. I was stuck behind him in the left lane but he was first in line. He was kinda looking in his mirrors. So I powerbraked it just a touch, just in case. I didn't look at the boost gauge to see if I was even registering boost, but I just wanted to be ready. He takes off kind of normal and then stabs it. I stab it too....and I'm gaining on him!!! I clear the right lane so I change lanes and I'm still pulling on him!! Probably about 75-80 (wasn't watching speedo at that point) I get around him and move back to the left lane cuz there are cars in the right lane.....but I keep my foot in it. Finally I look at my speedo and it's buried. I happened to have Waze going on my phone and it shows 119. It hits 121 I think and I glance at the tach quickly and it looks like 3700....so I'm done. I back off and coast down to about 70. He slowly rolls past me and gives me a big thumbs up and smile. So bitchin!!!! I think I represented the 6.5 well tonight........
Here's a pic I snapped later when we were at another light. We didn't do anything - I had proven my point.
This was a very fun night!!
