Seems to be good competition with this truck. What are the specs of the hay hauler?

OP, is this engine/turbo combo new from the 8.80 you guys ran?

spike is 3100lb race weight and has slightly touched a 8 s pass on a big shot

there isn't a 7s LSX vehicle yet

and I believe Farmtruck aka nelson performance may be faster then La Whippet now

This is a new setup, same turbo as when we ran a 8.8. Its no longer called "hayhauler" its the rmr oilfield bandit. It belongs to a friend of ours. We've got some big goals for this new setup. Ill post more videos as I take them. This is the second fastest lsx truck

Havent really heard anything good about those comp turbos...how do you like it?
Because the owner wanted the exhaust that way so we are not gonna argue with the guy.

About comp turbos, so far this comp turbo has done just about the same as the presicion turbo when motor was hurt. We have been beating on this 402 for little over 5 years and until rod bearing went out and spun two rod bearings. Owner had a new spare 440 LSX motor and decided to run same turbo combo for right now.

Hay hauler will be at San Antonio race way and Flaco is there as well and I'm sure they will bring a new personal best home.

truck will always be known as the hayhauler on the nets, may have a new owner and a personal nickname but to everyone who have watched this truck over the yrs transform into what it is. it will be known as the hayhauler
