So far it's still on for saturday November 2. It's limited to 40 cars so it all depends on how many member get tickets. Usually dw42 doesn't sell out because of the rough track, so chances are good I can get some extra spots. Last year around 35 tickets sold but 20 people showed up.

I went to National Trails yesterday and my alternator died on me.
I had my new drag radials on and it hooked great the first time down the track. The second time it only made 14 psi and felt like it was slowing down the further I went. I thought I had a boost leak, but I couldn't find it so I just gave up for the day. I stopped and got gas when I got back into town and the truck wouldn't start. It's a good thing I had the stocker in the basement.

Glad things worked out for ya. I went to dragway 42 last night and got a new best time but also found out my differential clutches are going out. Kept wanting to only spin one wheel in the burnout box, If I took it real easy in the box to start out I could get both wheels to spin but if I just dropped the clutch and smoked the tires only the passenger would spin.

No, I threw the stock one back on, but haven't had time to do anything with it yet. It just sucked having it happen one of the 3-4 times a year I go to the track, because it dead hooked on the street with the dr, and the tires are 3 1/2" shorter, so it felt stronger. I know I would have ran a new best.

Is your truck together yet?
