Ford Lighting kill

This was pretty cool, cause the guy was pumping at the same gas station like me, I told the guy he had a very nice truck (classical red neck), his reply was " and it will kick your car's *** in a flash !". I was shocked! After a minute of thinking it over I walked to the guy and told him, "would you put money on that?" but he didn't want to, I said then "well I'll give you a chance to prove your point for free, I'll see you at the light if you have b*lls", now he was shocked LOL.

We got to the light, when the light turned green we both took of at the same time, it was nice to see him looking at me as I left him behind to about 80 MPH, when we got to the next light he looked at me and looked at the light only, we punch it again at the green light but this time he spun and was left behind only further, I just waved bye thru my sunroof and left him far behind as he probably let off the gas, i'm glad I tought him a lesson, freaking red neck!

Excellent kill!!!!!! I've always loved the Lightnings, but people like that need to be put back in their place. I was beat up by a Lightning a while ago. I had my Toyota pick up and decided to be doubley dumb and race him. he not only beat the little Toy, but did so...burning rubber. Sigh. My little truck and ego were both devistated. so, my hats off to you!

That is a tipical Red Neck here in Texas, they think they are the best and Mexicans (and most other people) are nothing, like you said, they do it because they are ignorant!

Thanks, and don't mess with a lightning unless you have some serious power, I've seen them run 13.4s in the quarte mile, that is what 360 hp s/c engine (from the factory) and a cold air induction will do on that truck!

I knew that the Lightning would take out the Toy..just not in such a fashion. Everytime I go up against the Lightnings now, I make certain I'm in something much more serious. However, if that guys wants to go racing in the desert, through the dirt...I'm there!! lol...

Those trucks are packing some serious power, but unforunately they are aerodynamic bricks.

Right on dude!

Hey Pocholin good job man, way to put him in his place!! I can't beleive he replied to you like that after you gave him a compliment!

Also I have got a question for you what is your ethnical background? I am by no means trying to be racist or mean just wondering because you mentioned the rednecks in Texas are incosiderate to other races. I was wondering because maybe he was mean to you because of your race? Not trying to start a war hear or anything and I ask with respect to whatever background you may be.

Anyways sweet kill dude I love my E55 AMG also! (The power of AMG)

Later Guys,

Don't worry, i don't take offense on people calling me Mexican, because I am proud to be a MEXICAN.

I am "A Mexican" because I'm from Mexico, Mexico City to be more specific, so how could I get upset when people call me "a Mexican"??? LOL
