Duramax down 3 times...

well on my way to Indy to the 4x4 Jamboree with one of my buddies... I am just cursin along just a little over the speed limit... and I start to notice this chevy with ford mirriors comming up on my pretty darn fast.. well when he got close to me he started to slow down.. noticed that he had his wife or gf with him.. well he just kinda looks at me at hits it... okay well time for some fun... well I just put it to the floor... mind you I am already going around 65... well I just leave him.. I let off around 90 or so... he catches up to me again... tries it again.. same resluts... well the third and final one is the best... he finally catches up again after the second go... and well I start to floor it but have to let out of it a little cause of a car in front of me... so i turn in the FAST lane and ride his but till we pass all the cars.... I don't think by the time we passed the last car he couldn't of gone any faster... well I had more throttle left so I put it to the floor again and just walk by him... well at this time I am wondering how fast I am going so I lookd down and well... I am going 0... guessing what happend is that it for some reason bounced back to 0 after tacking out.... so how fast do you have to be going in order to do this?? OOO and the Jamboree was a blast... I did see Josh aka jngreen there.....

Nice kill.

How was the Jambo?? I've not been in several years.. too much focus on show and not enough go for my tastes.

Did the chevy blow any smoke?? You say it had "ford mirrors" so I'm assuming it was an LBZ or at least an LLY with updated mirrors.

Nice, does that count as 3 kills?

I have had mine to 100, RPMS still increasing, but the speedo just stayed pinned at 100.
