not knocking you but a 1.9 short time doesnt seen like thats right......maybe its the turbo lag but damn does it pull up top ...congrats on the class win btw

Thanks, yeah I definitely have some 60ft issues. My best was only a 1.81 for the day. I'm thinking the suspension might be too soft. Lag shouldn't be a problem because I'm running a turbonetics 62-1 on a 6.0.. I know, it's way too small lol.

I was pissed about them shutting it down that early too. We need to express this to SGMP and they WILL fix this problem for the next go 'round.

I needed more time to fix my truck, as I snapped an axle coming out of the water box and thats all i got to do Saturday.

Flacos those trucks are awesome. Even with some failures (black one pouring fuel) , you guys pulled thru and made some passes. Very impressive.

What is your current suspension set up? Is the truck lowered and are you able to build any boost of the line?

The SAR get together and the HRP rentals always run well and arent that expensive, and best of all no sharing with other people and they run for 8+ hours.

Flaco what made you decide to go with the short downpipe out the fender?
you got that right...

reason for the down pipe, well it just looks sick as f**klol
