Re: titan vs gmc vortec max?

a guy i work with has one, crewcab 2wd. he has exhaust, and k&n intake, i'll eat his lunch. we race about once a week and i always when. dont get me wrong they are not slow, if you spin alot he will probably win, they seem too hook up really good. as long as your not sleeping you should be just fine.

Never raced any chevy pick that could give me a run that wasn't a Diesel. Raced both the Vmax and the SS. I know my 08s slower but I dont think its chevy slow.

Re: titan vs gmc vortec max?

I went to the NC meet at the rock with my Silverado. I raced my truck 20 times and won 5 or 6 times. I have the 5.3 in my truck. So I would think that the 6.0 would be a lot closer to the Titan than this 5.3 .

Re: titan vs gmc vortec max?

I raced one a little while ago and it was a close race. I have headers, intake, exhaust, uprev too. He was stock. I pulled a truck length and slowly pulled him till about 80 when we shut down. I would say whoever gets the launch first would be the one that would win stock to stock.

Re: titan vs gmc vortec max?

do you remember the toyota ad where the tundra spanked all the other trucks in the drag race? dont know if it was all real or smoke and mirrors, but the titan was not far behind the tundra but ahead of all the others!
chevy-6.0
ford- 5.4
dodge-5.7
