Default Maybe i should of bought a Duramax??

No just kidding i love my cummins even tho the D-max is a good motor... but what pisses me off is that i've raced two 05 lly Duramaxes with the same setups: edge, afe, 4 inch straight pipe, and they have both beat me by truck length in a 1/4 mile "give:"give:... I have my smarty on sw5, so im thinkin new tranny parts, sw7, and turbo upgrade i should be ahead of them

Yes them there Dmax boys are fast!! And yes street racing is not advised!

The professionals hang out at the track!

In California it is not worth the fines to streetrace. Not to mention that they take your truck to the crusher! If caught.

You need to stack that Smarty with something such as a TST, QUAD or Edge.
