Default In the 12's

I am happy, but sad at the same time I forgot to check the tune after changing my tires to the drag radials and the truck was banging off of the rev limiter between all shifts. On top of that I forgot the laptop so I couldn't change it. I had to let off between every gear. Next time out I will have the tune straight, 4.10 gears, and my trutrac in. Hoping for low 12's. Overall satisfied though.

60' 1.956
330' 5.220
1/8 7.949
mph 87.84
1000' 10.381
1/4 12.437
mph 110.44

Yep that was me. I was really upset about my tune. I did it to myself though should have taken it for a test drive before leaving the house.

Yea I am still on the stock converter and gears. That was my first time on DR's so I wasn't sure how hard it was going to hook so I sprayed it late. That left lane was hooking great though. Had I known that I would have sprayed it out of the hole. The coolant spill killed my chance for a second bottle pull.

Thats the plan, but I don't know how big of a converter to get. I still tow 4000-5000 pound trailer every now and then and use the truck as a hunting vehicle. So I don't want to go to big. I was considering a I6 Trail Blazer stall.
