what the ef!!!

ok so on my way home with my girlfriend i was at a stop light with a newer GMC Denali....i didnt expect him to race me cause he was older and well, he had an SUV....well he gunned t off the line and i was about 3-4 ft off his rear bumper before i realized what was going on and i gunned it....well i quickly got up to speed with him but them up until about 60 mph i was still 3-4 ft off his rear bumper!!! i maybe pulled lik 1 ft on him!!!! what motors do those things have in them cause i figured i would blow past him once i gunned it, but i could barely (if at all) pull on him....past him kindof easily at like 60 mph but i think he might have just let off....my Titan isnt exactly stock so i want to know WTF!?!

Re: what the ef!!!

I think the Denali packs about 50 more ponies than a regular Yukon.

Re: what the ef!!!

ya i just looked them up...they got 380 hp an 417 lb of torque....i think if i wouldnt have been playing "catch up" i would have gotten him by about a 1/2 - 1 truck length of the line but it would have been a very close race....they are about 300 lbs heavier than me too...i couldnt believe how fast that big ole SUV was

Re: what the ef!!!

I thought they were 402HP. Either way there quick!
I think you should take him to about 50-60 MPH then there top end would
pull away.

Idk about that, yours may be faster, but put that 6.2 in a RCSB chevy and see if its the same outcome. They are smokin fast stock and once you remove the stupid torque management nothing with equal mods will hang.

Re: what the ef!!!

well i feel a little better about the outcome then since they are so powerful.....still sucks that i probably wouldnt have beaten him by very much in an actual race, but apparently after listening to some of yall and some on CT, this is a powerful vehicle

Eh, I'd have to see it to believe it. Besides, they never have and most likely never will put that 6.2 in a single cab. Their 6.2 makes 400+hp at the motor and puts out 340 to the wheel, mine makes 381 and 330 (stock) to the wheel, plus its lighter, and im running 4:30's stock. Think about it, your titans are making 315 at the motor and 290 at the wheel (which is freaking awesome) and you guys can keep up. Im not too worried about any chevy unless they're seriously modded. Id put my money on mod for mod.

Re: what the ef!!!

Dam!!! I hate loosen. Maybe a list of trucks Not to go up against would help. Would be a short one for sure!!! Haven't lost to anything I've gone up against yet, wouldn't mind keeping that stat. I love this Truck, with the lower gear, off the line these things move, now if I can just decide on getting that $700 Uprev Osiris package or a BD for half the cost.

Not that I want to go off topic, but has anyone seen the dodge challengers, nice. Bad for ford mustangs, dodge is stealing them ponies. That is one bad mofo muscle car.
