Cool man. You will be in the 8's easy after a tune. I bet mid 8's wouldn't be out of the question with traction. I am hoping the headers and a converter will help out a bunch. We shall see. Would really like to get an 8 second flat without having to tear into the motor.
I will have to check Kennedale out sometime. I had heard it was more of a grude race, biker, redneck track but maybe it has gotten better? I normally go to Ennis but they dont have near the test n tune events of the other tracks. I like North Star because their test n tune is on a Saturday which works out best for my schedule and it is the colsest track to me.

Sundays are a great time to go. Friday night is kinda rough as you described but still safe. Yellow Belly Raceway...not so sure lol!
You must be 2wd? Still good times on these new trucks huh?

Hey Thomas I just saw your truck in your thread. Its haulin' butt! Love that mph too! Gonna really wake it up after the headers too. FYI Kennedale is open every Sunday all winter their site says! As for my truck thanks for the compliments! I need a tune bad...talked to Mike at new era today. I'll do it soon before I run again.

Great I'd love to meet you!
Yeah I would've given a lot for a 6.2 in this truck but I wanted a RC to kind of duplicate my 07 that I had for my DD. I sure do love the gas mileage of the 5.3 though. I've about decided on a 2.9 Whipple and a small cam for my fairly near future.
