Ouch... at least it's an easy fix. Nice times too. Was the slip in the video your best to date?

Yeah that was the best. 9* of timing at 18 psi. 6000lb+lb truck. Pretty sad reaction time, but I was knocking .1 off it each run. The last run would have been better if I didn't lose the DS/u-joint.

Did you have a driveshaft hoop? Just curious how much stuff it tore up under there?

Awesome times! That thing definitely moves out!

A front loop. Banged up the fuel tank support and the evap bracket which I had already modified for clearance. Not sure about the trans, the yoke only slides out 1" then stops...just about to cut that off.

Super strong as one would expect....

Needs more gear or much shorter tires though. Shifting into 3rd right before the traps isnt helping the cause. Your 60' would improve as well. Might even be able to brag about more broken parts
