HUGE Boosted Launch

So we got about 3 inches of snow today. My friend and I were out clearing driveways. On our way home I got blasted by this kid in a Nissan Titan. I prayed for a red light cause I had my hubs locked and I could throw it into 4WD at any time. And would I have it, GOT A RED LIGHT Pulled up next to him and goosed it a bit, threw it into 4HI and boosted her up. It was my first ever 4x4 boosted launch in this thing. I could hear the turbo howling, light went green and I mashed it. My neck cracked, and my dog ended up in the backseat lol and I beat him by about 5 or 6 truck lenghts. I only went to about 40 MPH though, but I was excited!
