I have a time slip at the house from 1999 when my truck was bone stock that has 3675 written on it which was the weight at the track.
weighed my s10 back in 01 and wasnt no where near that light...4100 with me in it 4wd truck....
farmtruck isnt much heavier then this LT1 s10 difference is what 200 lbs?Quote:

the GenIII motor was orignally designed for the cars, all the technology came from those platforms...Thus why the motor is labeled a car motor no matter what platform its inQuote:

so 3500lbs on leafs and caltracs on a small tire vs a 3800lb truck that is backhalfed on a huge tireQuote:

interesting battle of comparison there
A s10 is still lighter than a full size regardless the argument lol.if I put my setup in a mini i would have a single digit truck as well but I rather try and get there in my heavy full size show truck :)
Plus the S10 chassis just plain works. But you guys sound like a bunch of whimpering Lightning owners.
are you aware there are fullsize trucks that are lighter then some s10s that are racing? what makes it any different?Quote:

If he brings his truck ill race him .... then after that we put farmtruc and Sonoma on scales and see who's heavier.
But not once have I seen his truck at SAR so I doubt it.
It still doesn't even matter what either one weights, it's still a run what you brung deal. I have no doubt my truck is lighter? I never tried to claim it was not?
I didn't tell you guys to make a freight train fast.....
Do you plan on responding to my private message I sent you?Quote:

some sitting there making crying excuses just takes the fun out of it
Ok cool no biggy
So if you took this small motor and single turbo and put it in a FS truck, what 1/4 mile times would you get. This is what I meant. And for people to come into a thread saying they dont talk $h{} and then later say they are going to spank ass and take a trophy. I am just saying that it is not apples to apples. Take any setup no matter the CI, turbo setup, etc. and put in two trucks, one mini/one FS and what will happen on the track? And then the person with the most posts in the (Grudge Race) thread to not even come to raceday for 3 years, wtf...anyone can sit here and point out things as I do lol...Quote:

I am on the side of "Mr Excuses I wont go but can race my mouth George C"
All I read is some girls afraid of been rammed by behind !!!
He is lighter, so be it, He said he has small inch motor, so be it..........he has proven that he is fast, and the tiny truck to beat.
He went the safe cheap route, we choose the crazy one.....so what !
No one can't deny that Farmtruc vs slammed98gmc will be hell of a race.
And on a side note, George C. You have claimed to be and expert all over the web for some time now, and all you have proven is squat and an over done plastic ugly white truck.
So next time you want to jump to be the "Savior" of anyone....bring something else than your "internet only" acquired knowledge.
I'll be taking a rented truck, maybe I can run for your money :) or a beer !Quote:

Everybody is calling me a newcomer but I will call out everybody on this sight, let's line up an race, an let our trucks do the talking. An on that note, if u are not showing up in feb, than u don't need to even talk any to me on the thread.
I totally agree on this as well seems like it going to be a good outcome this yearQuote:
