Trap was 106.97, which is really good IMO, and only a couple MPH off the 12.52 in the other lane. So I would also like to see the 60-ft time and hear what your launching technique was, cause there's some 12-second power there.

I made 2 back to back passes and left, both were pretty much the same, here are the 2 timeslips:

Technique was simple, foot braked it to about 1500 rpms and then mashed the gas pedal when the lights came down. Both passes were in 4wd high, traction off, no wheel spin at all. No tricks, just pulled in, ran the truck twice in like 15 minutes and went home.

No, we have our own unique design, proprietary stuff. We have been doing it for 3 years now.

I retuned the truck today with the 3.625 pulley, it's making 9.5 psi now. Should be heading back to the track Friday to see the difference if all goes well.

ill have to join the fun in watching. ill see if jacks is going down with choda or the choda hauler. maybe adam will bring his turbo truck out too. if you stick around long enough i know ill have questions on tuning, setups, etc. since if i install anything on mine it will be in the area and probably be tuned by you.
