bwahaha... Yes, i did lose a race tonight. And, my wife was there to prove it (how sad). But, anyways, coming home from a family's house. I was on Oak Ridge Rd. I saw this Ford F150 Harley Davidson. Didn't think much of it. The light turned red and so i pulled up next to him just to see if he wanted to go.
Light turned green and we floated for about 5ft. At this point i didn't think he was going to do anything until I heard a little whistle next to me. I didnt punch it until he was about a half a truck a head of me. Once i did punch it, it didnt take too long for my truck to respond due to the PGM. Once it did kick in my tires could not handle the new torque this truck has. I spun for about another 2 to 4 ft and could not keep the truck in a straight line. He was gone until he had to turn. The turn that he took was a road where you can pretty much race since its a huge 4 lane road (john young). I was thinking about racing him again, but had to get home to get ready for work and type this sucker up.
So, i did lose and cant wait to get back on the track where i have some traction. I might need to turn down the amount of gas going into 1st gear.

You aren't kidding about turning down the gas LOL....I wonder why I can't get my tires too break loose from a roll like that...From the way you talk, your truck is responding better to it then mine. Mine feels the same as the OEM TB (except for part throttle)..I need to get this new tune on and see what happens....Nice, I wonder how it would have turned out if you wouldn't have broken loose the tires....I so would have followed him onto John Young in a heartbeat
