Once we got our asses up there after this happened to Josh's tire on the trailer. One of his new drag slicks was sliced by the liscence plate of the trailer. With some old-school technology and improvisation we got that sucka rolling again
Here's a couple shots of the trucks:
Josh
Steve
Matt
Tim's 13 second turbo-buggy : towed by a sweet Silverado which I failed to get a pic of
No pix of mine either.
But I did get down to 14.96 at 91mph w/a 2.2 60' and still haven't had it tuned. And that launching in 4wd **** slowed me down .2X seconds so I won't be doing that again. Don removed my TM and raised my top speed to 140 so that was cool. I finally got to hit 115 on the ride home, pulling hard in third Can't wait to tune it and get a nasty torquey cam going to bring that curve down!
I spotted a couple other trucks in line to get in tonight as we were leaving. One black CC might of been a V-Max or it was a D-Max. Cooler temps would've been nice. Freakin 85' on my mirror

When Is Everyone Going Again? I Want To Try Some Spray And See What I Get, But Hitting 12's Is Only Fun When Someone Is There To See It. Lol

T, I hate you all. j/k. I can't wait to get my truck back. With Don not having time to do it and SDCE letting it sit in their parking lot for a month and not even looking at it, I've been without my truck since April 28th. Nothing has been done to it yet.

It's finally at Turbo-Zone in NY though and the work is being started this week. No friggin idea when I'll get it back. I'm hoping for 2008. lol

I think I only ran 3 tenths slower than Matt's 600hp beast. It was to hot for any record breaking runs... The track prep was great. Erik has a broken belt on the dyna to prove it and that was in third gear.

Teddy thanks for carting my *** all over MA. to get the tube.

I matched my old best of 14.5 and with 85 degrees and humid I'm happy, it can only get better.

Just finished taking the 6.0L off the truck and prepaired it for the rain
