a buddy of mine has his fuddle converter in my garage...he may be willing to sell it. its actually the converter i ran in my truck before moving to a circle-d. i cut consistant 1.69 to 1.71 with it. i can ask if he wants to sell if your interested.

Very nice Nick,get a badass converter in there (3600 IMO) along with 3.73 gears or 4.10 and that thing will be deep in the 12's.
Congrats Nick and also congrats to Skeet for his 11 sec. N/A pass!
Well done guys

can you elaborate on this? reason i ask is cause i went to HRP also friday and made 2 passes, after sitting in long *** lines, it really sucked, even though i had a heat issue IAT's were up to almost 200 degrees at launch, but managed to pull off a 11.95 pass, the truck felt like it hooked strong with a slight touch of spin, which was on the bead of the tire, BUT the run felt really slow
by the way great times, and waite until you can get a good converter

well like i said the first time i ran , i diddnt burnout or nothin , i had the cutout closed and it just spun i let off hit it again , spun , let off again then eased into it , it was like a 2,8 60 ft , and i still managed a 100 mph trap ,
the second run i opened the cutout , did a healthy burnout on these ****** 265/65/17's stalled ut to maybe 1k or less i cant remember , and took off, it diddnt spin or nothin it just went , u know ... like taking off but not crazy launch , ... i think the 3.42 gear helps me get up and move on top end , my 2-3 shift is 100 mph shifting at 6.500
even since charlie fine tuned it , its been running great , its amazing what that guy does ,
thanks charlie !

u get a converter then ur also gonna have to invest in some slicks cuz its gonna be way different on the launch imo u dont go to the track that much y waist money when ur already killin everyone on the streets u can already beat 12 sec trucks nd cars no need for a slip sayin u run 12s but idk nick thats just my opinion ur trucks runnin sik but then again a converter would also help u on ur 30 roll... idk.

nah its cool , yea i used the right lane when i spun my *** off and when i hooked i was in the left ... u ?
oh congrats on ur times too , wish i had that time
yea a converter is more of a want than a need right now , if i get a good deal on 1 ill get 1 but i dont really care , youre right jerry i already know wht the truck can do , it will only get me a better time AT the track and thats about it ... im just gonna leave it how it is for now , ...

both runs were in the right lane, looking over my logs i see i had some high IATs which probably caused my issues
