Default Re: Colorful Racer's Secret Test session

Bob ,,,
It was worst , my Black 454 truck ( Which I loved !! ) was paid for and matched my trailer ,,,, Remember brothers got to look good even if we are not ,,,,,

The worst part was , it only got 4.5 to 5 MPG ( I got 5 when I used syntheic oil ) ,,, and would only pull hills at 50 MPH ( My trailer is all steel and I probally carry to much stuff ) on Hi-Test with Octane booster !!

When I went diesel ,,, ( 4 years ago , it was cheaper than gas ) I got 10 to 12 miles to the gallon and that Duramax turbo takes them hills at 70/80 MPH without missing a beat , honestly ,, I have to put the thing on cruise to keep from getting a ticket ,,,,,,,,

Now at $4.50 a gallon for diesel ,,,,,,,
I'll still race ,, I just have to figure out who won't get paid during the racing months !!
