Ok sot this friend of mine has a 2007 Toyota Tundra, Extended cab, 2 wheel drive, 5.7L V8. I know it has exactly twice the horsepower mine does and almost twice the torque, but it also weighs 4 times more than mine. Maybe I'm wrong, but I think I can take him....

[HMUSN]

not a chance.

if you race him think of you as the guy in this short clip.

[interceptor]

Nope. You're gonna get your ass handed to you. Two guys I work with have '07 Tundras with the iForce 5.7 and they will move for a full size truck. My bone stock '07 GT demo car doesn't exactly run away from them, just pull them.

If you're insistant on doing it, put your $$$ on him.

[scxc15]

how does only 400 Ibs for torque move 6000 Ibs that fast then?

[scxc15]

We won't race for a while anyway. I'll have my 3.73 gears by then, that should beat him...

nope you will need alot more then gears those trucks haul ass

[scxc15]

I will have more than that too, thats just the biggest mod. I thought the very best the can do is a 15.3.....

[scxc15]

By the time we race, if I were guessing I will have. CAI, ful exhaust, UD pulley, tuner, and 8.8" rear end with 3.73 gears. Im thinking about buying 17x10.5s with drag radials for the back, but idk if its worth it or not.

idk you might get lucky a guy with headers, intake and exhuast in a 2007 tundra was pushing 16s last night...but you'd have to hope hes just as bad a driver

[scxc15]

well he is about 6'5" and maybe 160 IBS. How good of a driver do you think he is? lol I love tall goofy people.

[scxc15]

is your drag strip still open???

[itschristorres8]

i just there last night so yes

1. A Toyota Tundra regular cab, long bed truck has a curb weight of 4700 lbs, not 6000.
2. The truck with the 5.7 puts out 380 horsepower.
3. The truck runs 0-60 in 6 seconds, and the 1/4 mile in mid to high 14's.
4. You car runs 16.5 as noted in your profile.

You will need a lot more than bolt ons and gears to chop 2 seconds off your times and catch that truck.

[scxc15]

the dont run mid to high 14s, dont believe everything you read.
I saw 6K for curb weigh...
I know it puts of 380. I said double mine. 190+190+380
That was completely stock too and around mid summer.

let me guess you read it?

doood that thing will kill you!
if youre racing just for fun go for it, find out for yourself

[TheUNZippee!]

Even the extended cab weighs about 5500, not 6000.

If he's pulling 16's, chances are the guy can't drive worth a shit.

Here's a road test, on a double cab Tundra no less, that runs 14.8 in the 1/4.

Tundra Test

The only reason I replied on this is because I buy car mags all the time, and I've read a few tests on this thing, and they always say it runs high 14's in the 1/4. A buddy of mine's old man had one too, and although I never saw it at the track, I've been in it, and it pulls like a bitch.

A buddy of mine with and 03 v6 ran one on the street the other night, my friend has basic bolt ons.

My friend got stomped...

[itschristorres8]

the tundra at the track was a V8 but i dont think he had 3xxhp
he had like 280 or 290
