Default Me vs. Ram 1500 3.7l

I just decided to race from stoplight to stoplight with a buddy who owned that behemoth. I lossed a little traction at the beginning, but was ahead the rest o the way, and beat him by almost a car length. I know you gt guys usually have all the race talk, but now its an N/A who has beaten a respectable opponent.

Yeah it does feel pretty good. Now I just have to beat more people to earn respect for my car, and not have it be known as the slowpoke of the lot.

Go Taylor! Now that you beat a monster like that, it's time to eat some rice! My 2001 PT liked Civics, Accords, and Cavaliers the most. Yum!

Im always lookin for the next opponent. To maybe add some horsepower, im switching to amsoil high performance synthetic oil and filter that lasts for 25,000 miles. Im also hoping for some mpg increase

I wouldn't expect noticeable gains from switching your oil. Your engine will love you for it, will provide you with a longer life, and it will definately help it on those hard runs you make against your competition.

There is only one sure fire way to increase mpg: Reduce the weight... of your foot!
