I might follow you up there Luke. Any idea on when you're leaving H-town that day. Actually if I had a trailer I would take you up on your offer in a heartbeat and pay for your fuel there and back.

Heads up is probably the best way to do it although results can get skewed if its an unequal turnout. I would be cool if we could get everyones best pass of the night into a spreadsheet and really crunched the numbers. I tend to overcomplicate things though.....

We race according to the NHRA rules. You line up with someone and go when you're supposed to.

If you cross the line first, you won.

If you red light, you lose.

If someone wants to determine whether Ford or GM won the meet, you're on your own. It doesn't make sense to do that to me - this is just supposed to be FUN.

It's apples and oranges...different numbers of trucks, different capabilities, etc. There's no way to determine (to me) "who won". Let's just have fun guys.

Good point moze. Just everyone needs to make sure they document who you race so that you can make sure you know who you beat or lost to

Sounds good. Lets touch base once it gets a little closer. Maybe we can get a caravan going.

Nooooo!! What if someone doesn't get a good start or they didn't hook or the floor mat was bunched under the gas pedal??? You have to account for that stuff. Everybody just needs to run by themselves and compare timeslips at the end to see if Ford or GM had more fast times! Then if there is a tie, we could use dyno sheets as the tie breaker, total rwhp of all competing, the most wins! That's the way it should be!

(I'm still looking for that sarcasm smiley):LOL:

The ST guys will do double going all the way to Mesquite then back south to the track but it does sound fun.

I'll be there if i can, not 100% sure, gotta check with my secretary, see if i can pencil you guys in. Actually, I'll try to be there, might get my uncle and his z06 up there for some show. I will NOT run my truck though, top end is noisy as all get out. prolly needs new lifters. But i don't wanna tear into the 4.8l, got an awesome 5.3l 10.5CR thats gonna replace it, just gotta finish the bottom end and get the heads reworked.

I'm still trying to figure how to make it worth my time to come. I'll probably be talking to a shop close to home within the next couple days so I can get some new toys before I make the trip.

So, how are you guys looking? Do you think you will have more than 20 trucks? I read through the threads and it's hard to tell who is locked in for May 1st. It would be nice to have +40 trucks taking over Ennis.:)

yeah your right its hard to tell. I know of a handful off the top of my head
