Hey...anyone ever race a dokata r/t in their trep before? I went up against a single cab, silver r/t with at least an exhaust upgrade yesterday. We were at a stoplight and I knew he was gonna try to be tough so I put my 00 r/t trep into autostick just in case. The light changed and he went for it. He took off first and I, being unsure if we were gonna actually race, let him take off about a truck length before I got on it. I floored it and when I hit about 40 I caught up to him. I heard his loud exhaust stop and start as he was shifting. I got to about 65 and we were next to eachother. I stayed right next to him, both of use door to door and we had to let off at about 90 due to another light. I know I won't be believed but I thought for sure he would leave me behind. I know he was shifting pretty good cuz he never slowed down any between shifts so he wasn't a slow shifter...I was VERY surprised I could keep up with him...anyone else ever have a race similar to this and results??????? I don't know the 1/4 mile times for a trep r/t vs the dakota single cab r/t but I would have bet $$ that I would have been left behine...
