    Do not put off living the life you dream of. Next year may never come. If we are always waiting for something to change...
    Retirement, the kids to leave home, the weather or the economy, that's not living. That's waiting!
    Waiting will only leaves us with unrealized dreams and empty wishes.

    Shelby gt500 against a diesel truck...

    Diesel truck with mods still cost less than the gt500.

    Re: World's greatest drag race 2...

    whats the point of mentioning a diesel truck being faster and cheaper than a gt500? a civic can be much faster than either of those cars or trucks for 1/4 of the price but its still a civic. D-tards are just as annoying and ghey as ricers and squids

    could scoop an 04 liter bike for 4k and stomp most of the cars in the original video as well but who cares they still drive home in a nice ass car.

    Depends on what you want in the truck. Basic 4 door cab with 4x4 will set you back almost 45K. Add in the options and you're looking at 65-70K for a top of the line diesel.

    I thought that was probably one to the worst ones.

    Aventador and MB Black were what dreams are made of.

    The Lambo should've towed the BRZ.

    Funny thing is that the Aventador came in dead last in the "Best Driver's Car" challenge that this drag race was part of...not that I'd kick it out of bed for that.

    I really liked the sound of the Merc' and the Ford... The Aventador however, made me want to come home and key my own car.

    Subaru showed a lot of heart with 200 hp. But I'll take that gtR home over the others.

    Have you seen some of the ATS built diesels at Bandi? They got a bunch of 10-second BIG trucks, pretty amazing in an almost-4ton vehicle!!! (and at a mile high, no less)

    Except (in this case) the Lamborghini, McLaren, and the GT-R.

    That post we'll allow, because you used the proper spelling of the often abbreviated "OK" or simply "K-" in response. Carry on.
