He had an awd red truck that ran 10s I believe that belonged to another member a while back. His white truck hasn't moved under its own power in years.

The burgundy AWD has gone 9's, the white truck does run.
This site was started with swaping LS1's into trucks not trucks that came with LS type motors from the factory. If you want to get down to brass tacks then there never was a truck with a factory LS1. I'm working on a S15 Jimmy with a LS2. If that doesn't fit then I'll take my setup some where else to race.
Before this thread get to far off track.
Farmtruc- Thanks for having the event even thought it was pushed together with one of Freddy's events. We were hoping to get that "Fastest on the property" win again this year but it just wasn't in the cards for us. We rarely have breakage on our truck in completion. The track was super good for us and not sure if stayed decent till the end. We had it tuned up for a personal best. We run a "bump box" for staging and the starter threw the tree on me and that pretty much threw it away. We will move on to the HPT's event and have more fun.

i for one had a blast. it was nice to have a truck to race for once instead of broken or no truck. thanks for putting this together for us every year allen.
He's got 2 trucks. His race truck that'll never be finished and a regular cab short bed 4x4 that has run high 9's. He drives it all the time I think so in its turned down state it runs mid 10's or something like that.
Can anyone tell me if there is any heads up racing at HPT??? I see know reason to drag out the truck to bracket race.
