For some reason, the two closest 1/4 mile tracks here in north Texas are closed already. It looks like I'm going to have to drive at least 3 hours to run a 1/4 mile this winter, maybe even farther than that. Thats going to make it difficult since I don't want to break anything so far from home (and help).
Bring it down to the GTG in Houston on the 20th if you break I have a low boy trailer and Ill haul you back.

At least you know what the awful squealing was now. Get it pinned and get your 12 second slip!

Ummm... yeah... what he said. Clearly your truck is begging for mercy. If you love your truck, you should take the meth off and drop timing back to 10 degrees and be slow like all the other trucks.

lol, i did find out from a local tuning guru that running 18deg timing is a HORRIBLE idea. He said the knock sensors don't respond after a certain amount of boost. I'm gonna drop down to 14 or 16 deg if I go again. They are predicting rain/snow for sat, sunday looks sunny and 60's.

I've been running 20 degrees timing,WOT at 9psi for awhile now. No KR. I have to question the knock sensors not working at high boost?

Anyway with the cooler days I actually broke loose all 4 wheels from a dig the other day. Roads were spotty damp but first time its ever done that.
