Domestic Truck in Champaign, Big Mouth, Small Truck Options

[TotalEclipse97]

This guy i see at work all the time rants and raves about being a "street racer". He's in his late 20's early 30's. I asked him what he ran. He proceeded to glorify his Z71 Chevy that was putting down 320hp to the wheels. I didn't want to make fun of him ( even though i should have ) so i asked him what/who he raced. "rice burners" he said...."little imports with big tips"... he went on (again) to tell me about smoking some guy in a ford v8 triton. I think this guy needs to race the right people...so if anyone's up for some fun here's the truck's description


Z71 Chevy XT
All-Wheel Drive
454 with Headers
Custom Y-Pipe
Stock Muffler System (no glass paks or anything fancy)
2.25-2.50 exhaust (dual tips)
Green on Silver
Tinted Windows (with little stickers)
Nothing flashy
K&N Filter
No lift kit,custom rims or anything just stock

and he said something about his throttle body but whatever. 320 to the wheels


have fun guys

I appreciate your kind words. I think it is awesome that you harbor no ill will towards the import crew, such open-mindedness is rare in a domestic-oriented person. As for your relative need of a hands-on education, trust me, there is much to be learned on this site.

I have been working on these cars for about 8 years now, if you have any questions, feel free to ask. If I cannot answer, there are fifteen others who likely can. You really need to get a DSM, they're cheap and plentiful. If you're located in C/U, you may see quite a bit of me this season, as KOU Motorsports has been so good as to sponsor my efforts this season, and I'll be in Tolono quite a bit. You should come out to the shop and check it out.
