There a set hotel everyone is staying at?
Apparently last minute changes has landed me probably making the event. Don't know what I will be in. Ordered shift kit for 80e and a tu1 cam since I toasted my 60e a few weeks back. If I can get it put together I'll come to play. Otherwise may bring the goat out to run those blazing 15 sec 1/4 miles!
ah yes, need to do that, i know.
we have an even for every class of truck.
especially you blown06 :)
I'm just looking for a 10.00 bracket class. What you talkin about?Quote:

There will be a class for the fastest LS powered trucks. The fastest doesn't always win, we all break sometimes.
Then there is a class for all trucks on the property, that ones always good.
And of course all day will be test and tune in between racing.
SAR will have the gas vs diesel challenge as well. we gas trucks should win that.
Awesome. Thanks for the details.
Is there a way to prepay for a discount? I'm out of money lol.
We're not doing prepay this year.Quote:

O yeah, all the monster truck shit was annoying lol
Only thing that would have really made it better was to be racing, man did that eat @ me, plan to do that next year.
what did the brown sierra run?
The Sierra ran great.
The one thing that made it most impressive and promising.
It was the first time out with this thing.
Owner loved it and it performed just as we expected.
Sixo with good pistons and rods, stock crank, stock heads w springs of course.
Th400, 3.55 gears.
Twin Magnum 70's.
We wanted a mid nine from it and got it!
The passes started out slow but safe. New setup u never know.
Fourth pass after dialing in timing and fuel safely, launch was set at 7psi, 17psi down the track.
Resulted in a
1.48 sixty foot
9.4 @ 146 mph
Very happy with the outcome. We aren't looking to break records but have a good solid consistent truck; which seems to be rare lol.
Prob gonna turn it up to a 15psi launch, 22psi down the track.
On a cold day u never know.
Figuring a 1.31-3 sixty and a deep nine. 9.05 be nice.
Gotta a set of 255 trickflow waiting to be installed if he wants 8's
Geez how times have changed. A 3500 dollar engine (of course with all the stuff not included ) running low nines lol.
I'm sure there r vids.
what are the turbines on those 70s? 65s with a .96 ar?
They r .96 ar.
Q trim.
Next time we will put the 2step to use.
Launch was on Tbrake only.
Initially it takes a little longer to spool.
2-3psi initially then takes its time to 5-6psi, then pressure just rises immediately.
We will activate the step around 3400rpms or so to get it going.
The AMS works good on launch control
I didn't even get to go, but I heard congrats on fastest truck.Quote:

If that doesn't work I'll upload it to Youtube. Video would have been better if I had gotten up into the stands, but had to rush since I was BS'ing with you guys in the staging lanes.
It was good to finally meet everyone. Great runs for the first time out, the truck definitely has a LOT left in it. I think it will run 8's with just some tweaking. Excellent work guys!
It was good to see you there Jay,
I came down to meet some of our customers and just take a much needed day off. I had fun. Got to meet the guys from Nelson and some of our other customers.
It was 85* there yesterday and 17* here now. Woke up to sleet and snow.
Glad ya enjoyed it! Good seeing y'all too.Quote:
