Ever see a Super Duty peel out??

I was at work tonight, and I have indoor/outdoor access through a sliding-door. Well I heard the rumble of the Ford diesel, so I went outside to catch a glimpse of a white F250 Super Duty crew cab turning the corner, leaving smoke in the air. When it got past the stop sign, it made another right. The diesel rumbled from the tail pipe and smoke was coming off the road. Wow. I had to just pause and stare, and then get back to the customers.

It's a beautiful sight that I have only seen once. You wouldnt think a truck that big could smoke the tires but I guess I was wrong.

I've seen a lifted and worked F250 with a 6.0 liter get sideways on all fours in 4 High from a stop on 38" tires. Pretty sick.

Those Super Duties demand respect! And they don't really seem like 'that kinda truck' that would 'do such a crazy thing.' But they can pull it off

After I put a Magnaflow dual side out exhaust, Air Force 1 intake, Superchips programmer, and Denso Iridium plugs in my V10, I can pretty much smoke them across an intersection, on a good day. I did all that for more power towing, not racing, but it is fun to romp on it every so often.

Oh, about once a week I see it. Heck most times I'm trying NOT to do it. Last time I tried I did a 1,2,3rd gear burn. I ended up backing out because I was coming up to a stop light. The real kicker is mine is only mildly built if that. In the next few months its getting a good kick in the hp dept.

my buddy has the 2002 4x4 s'crew dually. i've been in it when he smoked the 4 rear tires. man what a sight. he has the bully dog SI/DO 4" exhaust, k/n filter and the Supertuner. he had it set on the highest horsepower gain which i think is 100+. the blower whine is also incredible sounding as well

I thought the Supercrew was a 1/2 ton model. He's got a crew cab

The Superchips new model is 110hp for the 7.3L, the older model is 80hp. The exhaust, intake, and programmer combo really wakes up the 7.3L. I've got the Edge Evolution on mine and one of the trucks at work runs the Superchips. I like the power of the Edge (much more than the SC) but the shifting on the SC is better than the Evo IMO.

your right powerstroke73. i seem to have that lingo stock in my head since that is what i own. either way, man it pulls like you know what. he is very happy with this setup. so much so that he is not looking at a new truck anymore. 4 months a year he pulls a 10000lb fifth wheel trailer and he says with the 50 horsepower tune it's like it isn't even there at all.

Don't you sometimes wish that you could see yourself driving?

I can smoke both rears through 2nd gear in mine and i'm running slightly larger 285 Revo's. I dont' make it a habit and can't remember the last time I did, but it's only been 2-3 times, just to make sure I really could.
