Hard to believe anyone could get bored with a truck that runs 11.6's hahaha

Especially on a relatively mild build... could easily get more cubes, could easily get a bigger blower, could easily have more cam... his combo just flat runs HARD.

His truck is dialed in quite well but I think he is at the point that to get any faster he would have to start spending a lot more money and he says it's just not worth it for him anymore.

bored out .005..... so still a 6.2 in my book LOL




and the tires that are on there I am expecting to hold up to one more test and tune and then it's time to find a burnout competition somewhere and finish them off and put the stock rims and tires back on.



Going DR's next summer for the track.. not sure what I will do for DD duty
