Same set up (car or truck engine setup) will be totally different in a full size vs a mini truck. Power to weight is what any time boils down too. If I wanted to win the shootout every year, I would have an S10 or El Camino built with half the money the Full Size guys spend and win every time. Anyone can take it as trash talk or whatever they want, it is the simple truth. Obviously I could care less or I would pour ALOT more money at my truck and it would not weigh a ton.
old blue ford with the 6cyl runs in the 8's I'm pretty sure. And to say that an S10 can be built for half the money to keep up with the big boys I woulds say is a bit of a stretch. The S-10 arent really that light. They do make way more stuff for them in the Drag race dpt.
It's a 35 Chevy truck from down around Victoria that ran 8.40s. Last year. They should have won the last 2 years. 2011 they broke the input shaft in qualifying and last year they spun the tires due to something on the track. This may be their year if I can't get my buddies there.
