Sounds good, I just need to find some people to ride with and a damn trailer. So far only one buddy is down to go. The truck still needs alot of work. Suspension, transbrake, some braking issues, and some more tuning. Im hoping i can get some of them issues solved by this time just to give it another try.
Conreats G, sounds like you have a little work ahead of you man.
bump something tells me a fleet of trucks is coming from the RGV!!
Bbq and some rolling burnouts and yes we will be there again with some heavy hitters to have some FUN!
SPT will be there representing on FEB 23 as well.........and we'll be at the BBQ too..
wait, now theres boxing too?? us valley boyz likes us summa dem bouts 2...where do we sign up?
first thing that caught my eye was "bump" hahaha,
second thing, we were just down there and it's confirmed, there will be a huge load of trucks coming; so we went ahead and contacted the state, they are opening and placing more men on the hurricane evacuation lane, and no check points or harassment will be tolerated; anything that looks like a fast truck is considered high importance and immediate pass thru with no validation is mandatory!
Just to name a few; Xessive is bringing a dozen or so trucks; they are ready to run and taking no prisoners; don't forget the sucias.
Spike has "spikeII" and "storm" almost off the chopping block, Spike took a lot of lives initially, however, it's back for more souls.
Tellez just informed my thru PM that when you see something rolling up thru the gates; the Apocalypse just arrived, it was just a little late.
Kike is heading up here as well with his army of trucks, don't under estimate this crew!
I also saw Two Wicked Levels, didn't have time to introduce myself; probably because they were too busy taking names; I only saw one Level from them and it was Nasty!
and of course the farmtruc will be there; since we left rgv he still hasn't shut down, still idling and just waiting to attack; like a pitbull waiting on the porch for the mailman.
rgv was a great even btw, lots of racing, catching up with other shops and watching the trucks associate with one another.
thanks for the support guys and see you at the track!
I always have the gloves and wraps out, hahaha.
lol how long did it take you to put that post together ;) nicely done hahahaha made my day!!
no B.S.though its gonna be a real good and exciting event, hell im nervous about even dynoing my truck the day before :( ( not wanting anything to go wrong )
my glass is on its way :) now i might beable to get some track time in be before the event, still nervous about hitting full tilt ! but who knows gonna depend on how she reacts on the track !
from the time i clicked on "reply" about two mins @ 35wpm lol. the bs just easily flows out.
-- do it skeet, better now than later. it was built for it, you know it's solid. only ppl who should be nervous are those you're going after.
Well guys the sleeper is sick went on a joy ride yesturday and the 6l80e couldnt handle
the POWER. :giveup:
Havn't got to fully diagnose the problem but I am sure its toast.
I am going to try my hardest to get another trans in it before the shoot out but funds are low at the moment.
you're telling me a stock six speed auto trans can't handle that power and 700tq++?
vettes and camaros do it all the time!!!!
hate to hear it buddy, i knew it was bound to happen, get one going, i know you can do it. use the credit card it's not like you're using real money lol.
we just bought one for a truck, non power related, i think it was low 2,000 dollars. scrape up the funds, sale your soul, set up a food stand, do what you have to do.
lmao ya I knew the trans was on borrowed time. It sliped twice when I was down there at the track and once here. Funniest thing is that it started messing up on a light down shift. Then she started getting hot and slipping like it had a 5000 stall in it.
I am going to see what I can do I really really want to run it at the shoot out sh*t happens.
If nobody has called him out, I'd like to take this opportunity to call out Ducky!
I'll bring it, but I wont bring the slicks for you this year! LOL
If I happen to get a new transmission by the 23rd ill be there on 150 shot, but I don't think ill make it this year :(
bump.
The way its looking now I won't have my truck ready by then. Too busy on customers trucks that also wanna have their trucks ready for the shootout.
we will see how things work out, i may be there. especially now that I have found out there are some people talking some mad trash on some other forums.
I dont know too many of you guys, but the ones that do know me know that I dont talk trash . I have not said shit to anyone about " no competition" and " no fast trucks in the south". I dont talk shit, I like to go fast and have fun doing it. I could care less who wins, im there for the experience. I dont know where any of that came from. The only trash talking that I have ever done that involved one of these races was with spike and the fact that he does not drive his own truck.
i build my own stuff, its a lot of stock parts and junk, if you want to get bragging rights over beating some junk, lets do it.
Yall dont forget about the faster truck that will be there with his inline 6 cylinder putting the smack down on all of us!
I can't wait to watch both your trucks run, they are a couple of my favorites.
It doesn't matter if it was you or your crew giving you a bad rep, regarding the bs talkin. It's generally agreed upon that the attitude coming from your area is...
At least you have a quick truck to back up the smack talk.
And the fact that other truck owners know about your truck means you're doing a good job.
You do have a couple things going against you that you won't every get away from, you're running a non-LS1 and ppl will call your truck a car. That won't change.
But who cares, come on down and run it, there should be a few trucks that'll make that sonoma run all out, or at least beat you if you make a mistake.
Call your setup what you want, but there's no need to call it junk; that sounds like an excuse and a way out if you lose a race.
it's all in good fun, hope to see your truck run.
I have a sneeky feeling I know who is starting it and its not coming from anyone from my "crew". But whatever. Jealously makes people do that.
If I can't get my truck there, I will try and get another truck there from the cocky Dallas crew that will knock that smirk right off your face.
There you go, bring it, we'll race.
It'll be fun!
