STA V8 VS DAKOTA 5.9L?

[Carey Frennier]

Anyone ever race one of those short box, reg cab, sport Dakotas with the 5.9L V8?



I've got a feeling it would smoke even a V8 STA. It looks to be at least a half ton lighter and probably has more under the hood than my 4.6L could make on it's best day!

I Know Gary S and I messed around with the same Jerk in his blue one..... I believe Gary beat him, I was neck and neck, But killed him on the turns and handling the roads here...



Yes, Yes, I know streat racing....

I had my doors blown off by a full-size Dodge pickup 4x4 diesel... He left me like I was sitting still, even though my V8 was screaming through the six gears...



I was so ashamed and embarrased. Had to check my parts to see if I was even a man...

More and More performance available for Diesel's...



Here's one with over 1000 RWHP, and over 1800 FtLb. Torque @ 3000 RPM.

Around my hood there are many ford and dodge diesels, that have done some performance work. They are very amazing. One of my uncles wont tell me all he has done to his F-250. That trucks torque will push you back in the seat.
