Default COLD WEATHER=NEW BEST

I pulled off my best time so far last night(with the help of some cold weather).My original best was a 13.66 at 97.91 mph with a 1.864 60`.Last night I pulled off a 13.51 at 98.58 mph with a 1.802 60`.I made 4 passes in the 50`s my best mph pass was a 13.55 at 98.74. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" /> We had a killer time last night,out of maybe 30 vehicles there was 8 or 9 new body trucks.I don`t know about everywhere else,but the truck scene down in the BAYOU is getting big!Oh yea,hats off to QUICKENUF for sacrificing his tires on the coldest night of the year to let a freind of ours run. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[burn out]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_burnout.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[burn out]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_burnout.gif" />

Man, your truck is a freek! With exception to the converter, I have nearly the same mods you have (as listed on Futrals page)and I am nearly a second and five MPH off your times on motor. I know I can probally loose half a second with a converter and some tires but there is no way I am gaining 5mph from one. Are you sure you dont have something you are not telling us about? Anyway, congrats on the new times. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

I can promise you what you see is what I have!
Future plans call for LS1 edit, Futral Motorsports CAM, and then maybe once I finish my car I might put the gas on my truck. <img border="0" alt="[evil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" />

Hey Lotsofun, Im sure theres going to be some more good nights. Anyway Im coming for you. Slowly But surely. And to Everyone that doubts his times,I for one know they are genuine. I saw every run. His truck is just plain fast. and i have to say it has alot to do with the driver. Hes Damn good. I cant wait till I run some 13.5s. and hey how bout those rims? Daryls had long enough, sell em to me and just run the ET streets all the time.
