most embarrasing loss

  • Sponsors (?)


to a 2004 Ford F-250 6.0 turbo diesel quad cab:(
Was b4 a lot of my mods, but still he had the Banks 6-shooter pack / Banks power chip / Banks front mount intercooler / Full 3.5" exhaust from turbo . 6500lbs but 392hp 712tq:eek: - and it was getting on the freeway so 40-90 or so.

Can't say iv lost to to much more cars that are pathetic, i usually dont waste my time on what i view as POS's or ricers. And at the track it's all bracket racing so it's staggard greens.
 
stock for stock my buddies srt4 kills me, its close if i get him on the launch but he still takes the lead by the time i get into 3rd. i got took by a swapped accord one night. lost to countless dsm's but since im a dsmer as well i knew what they had and how bad it was probably going to be.

now ive beaten some cars i think i should not have beaten. taken a SS camaro till 100 from a stop where we both shut down. took a modded supra 2 out of 3 races one night, first two to around 110 where i had him by a fender, and the third we hopped on the freeway and just layed down and he finally pulled away and kept pulling past 120. took a R6 in the same way, from a stop up to around 100 getting on the freeway, but im pretty sure if we kept going id'a gotten raped hard. prolly a squiddie too, he looked horrible making the turn onto the freeway.
 
I've failed to do a burnout because of traction control a few times, and that's pretty embarassing. The worst thing I've ever done was back into a pole that is on the sides of my covered spots at my apartment, while a bunch of people were watching. That was :bang:
 
I've lost to a f250 that i wasn't really racing, but i was going the speed limit of 50 the light turned green theis f250 white smoked his tires when i passed, he caught me in no time, still didn't race him though. Later figured out he has upgraded his turbo, chiped it, and that was his second tranny because he blew the first one racing. also figured out it was one of my friends later too.
 
i thought i lost my motor at 94mph when a coupler blew off my intercooler.

boost leaks are scary.

lol i remember my first coupler blowoff, doing about 110 in the top of 3rd at around 22psi and just let off this huge pop. first thing anyone in that situation thinks is "aw **** the motor just gave in", pulled over and started looking around (the engine still idles fine though so i knew nothing stupidly serious blew) and sure enough, the home depot coupler from my j-pipe to fmic inlet pipe gave way, just tore in half. after that you just hear the pop and youre like "aw dammit!" cause you know it wont be a while till you can get a new coupler in.
 
Lost to a purple Eclipse before I was power improved or supercharged - that was pretty embarassing...I even switched over a couple lanes so I wouldn't have to get next to him and the next light...

but the worst was shredding the belt as i powershifted 4th on my best run at the track to date...would have loved to see what she woulda ran...
