just when i thought my truck was a dog

cruising up mtn city hwy when this ws-6 trans am keeps revving his engine, i slow to about 35mph 3rd gear and start to drag the brake and build boost, he is right next to me and i left at about 50 psi boost, next thing i know, my poor little 37-13.5-20 kumho mts are spinning like crazy and my truck is all over the road, the trans am pulls about half a truck length and i get fourth and some more wheel spin, hooks up and pulls about a truck on the car, shift to fifth and i lose about 40psi in between gears and the trans am gets a dose of some black smoke when i shift, get sixth and we ran to about 110 mph and we ended up with me about 3.5 truck lengths on the trans am, this is with and edge ez on level 4 and tst on 3x1 at 73-75psi boost no meth, just diesel and soy bean oil, i dont know why yet but i am still missing some levels on my tst, rail press drops too low, i used to be able to run 5-2 but now only 3-1, i think i will invest in dual cp-3 pumps, my truck definitely didnt feel that fast but those ws-6 trans ams arent slow, anyone running dual cp-3s on the street for a daily driver, also my pickup tube for my fass is loose as hell and my fuel tank is leaking all over the place, not cool im going on vacation in a few days and dont really have time to drop the tank.......
