This is really sad. This guy in a minivan tried racing me the other day. I was with a couple of my buddies and this guy and his wife pull next to us in a minivan and keep inching forward so I decided this was not acceptable. So we raced but that stupid thing kept up pretty good I was kinda ashamed. I started to pull away at the end but I dont know if that's because his wife wigged out on him, he just decided to give up or I was just pulling away. Despite the fact that my truck weighs in at 4500 with me in it and my 2 buddies equaling about 520 lbs. I would've thought to have done a little better.

If you got a stock/mildy modified 3.9...I'd bet he just backed off. Well, depending on the engine in his minivan. Do NOT underestimate those things. We used to have a Chrysler Town & Country and that lil farker could roast the tires with no problem and it could definitely scoot. I had to drive it for a few days while my truck was in the bodyshop after getting blasted in the school parking lot. It definitely took a lil getting used to...took off much faster. lol

Definentley dont under estimate a minivan.
The first minvan my family purchased had a shelby turbo charged 4 banger.

That darn thing could roast the tires off from a stop and lay you into the seat. On the highway you could goose it passing a semi and go from 65 to 95mph by the time you reached the front of the semi. 125mph was scary in it but it could easily do it.

I kinda wish i kept it since i was browsing the internet and seen someone modified one and pulled 110 mph in the 1/4. Hows that for a sleeper look!

I don't know who the bigger loser is. The guy racing in a minivan or the guy rcing against the guy in the minivan and losing.

Wait...you're both losers.

:) Did this post strike a nerve or something?

LOL!
Now those 2 are entertainment!

I bet those 2 were also the same guys i watched a semi-truck beat in a race once!
He didnt have his trailer attached, it was some old guy and these 2 kids in a car pulled up and reved there engine, the old guy looks down at them smiles and revs the diesel twice, the light turns green, the semi sling shots out there and the kids spin there tires a little. by the time the kids leave the intersection the old man had 3 gears on them and literally fogged out this short stretch of road with soot. Needless to say the kids lost horribly. I was behind and watched the whole thing and just laughed my a** off! I guess those kids learned not to under estimate a turbo charged v12 diesel! LMAO!!!


So we took a step from minivan racing to semi truck racing. Where do we want to go to today toofan and pathetic? I love swaping storys with you guys cause it gives me an excuse to take up your useless time in your useless pathetic lives!

LOL anyways ill be out of town for a couple days so use that time to come up with some class A material ok? I dont want any of that TV quote stuff i want something new and fresh do you think you can do that? Im counting on you!

here's one, i pulled up behind a mustang at a light and in the other lane was a kid on a moped, the kid started spinning his tire (well what it would do anyway) and was nodding his head for the mustang to race him. well in the meantime a cop pulls up behind me and they don't notice him and when the light turned green they took off. mustang was burning his tires and the moped just was mopeding lol. well the cop lights come on i slide over and let him pass and he nails the mustang. lololol what a loser! even thinking about racing a moped deserves getting a ticket. lololo

I simply stated it was sad that it kept up. It was amusing the guy was racing cuz u dont see ppl racing minivans. Who lost to a minivan? It's nice to see trolls can come in here and just completely take things off course.

Lots of people have been beaten by minivans. Even those with super duper RT's. Go up against the wrong one an you will be eating dust all the way.

I can see it now some guy with a turbo 4-banger minivan laughing his arse off over some guy with a Dakota trying to race him. I have no idea why you think it is sad that one could keep up to you.

I know nothing about the kind of power some of them have. Finding out that some have a turbo is new news for me.

Heres what came in some of the minivans

The minivans of the time were small and very light so a motor like that made them fly.
Especially since the motor had around 175hp and 200ftlbs depending on the flavor of motor you received.
