Default more parish losing vid, and new best gtech

i will just copy what i posted on a local board, it is late and i got to get to bed. this is the one guy that i beat last night, he got his bottle filled and up to presure and put on his drag radials, he can't stand to loose to a truck. i pulled my gate and pulled the exhasut apart after the y.

ok, had the rematch tonight, there are 3 races and the 1st 2 dont count.

1st race bama missed a gear and my tranny stuck in 1st for some reason, i was bouncing off the limiter at 6200. bama by ~2

2nd race, truck ran GREAT, gtech showed a 12.15(with a pasenger)and a 1.74 60', bama missed a gear and it was still even at the finish line.

3rd race, this is the one that counts, no problems on either side, bama by almost a car.

i will be looking for rematchs soon i hope.

Don't you wish these trucks were another 500 pounds lighter? Lighter cars have such an advantage at higher speeds.

It's not necessarily the weight at higher speeds it's that pesky vertical grille and windshield.

Great vid Parish! I like how you incorporated a run from your truck, one from the camaro, and a vid from outside. Very cool
