You guys are killing me here. I want to go, but I don't want to risk running anymore with someone elses motor in my truck:( .

Ya'll have a good time.....I'll be on active duty again after the first of the year.

Come on down and hang with me, while I watch these cool breezes run. It's not the same as getting to race, but it's still fun hangin' with the boys. Oh yea....did I mention the burgers? Bring your a$$ Ron, I'll buy dinner.:D

Yea ! Come on down Ron. I'm not gonna race either. How long has it been since you just relaxed and "watched" some racing? I don't think I've done it since I've owned the truck. This is going to be FUN>

i would have hoped for that 7.9 but 8.0 was all I got... o well, had a good time... i wish I had braked that last run instead of just coasting.... but good news is... I coasted and still ran 8.20 :beer:

Jeff sorry you didn't hit a 7 tonight.
I guarantee if you had Tbars you would have.:tu:

Congrats to Wes and Scott.

I had a good time despite the lack of traction. The M5 in front of me launched at like 4 grand and busted something. Then the damn track hand just swabs the deck with a mop pushing oil all over the start line:bs


Nice job jackass:hammer:

Jeff called and said he owned that 300 on the highway leaving the track.

I know, I know.....I have ran 7's out there before without t-bars. I thought I would for sure tonight. Still running some 8.0's with 93,0000 miles aint to shabby. Thanks for letting me use your slicks Adam. I enjoyed watching Wes in the 350, that little sucker is quick.:eek2:

I was tempted to turn their direction but the wife had been holding dinner for an hour and a half for me. I got caught up in that import challenge thingy and stayed wayyy longer than I planned on.

I'd like to have seen how the 350 faired on the highway with them :nana2

--wesI dont think he hit it when I hit it. I saw him run 89-90mph in the 1/8th so he probably would have got me pretty good from a roll. Wes, what mph did he run against you?

wesman
12-10-2004, 12:02 AM
Not sure...they didn't have the timeslip for that one :hammer:

I got him to write me one out and mine was:

60' -2.121 <----gotta love spinnin into 3rd on some 19's :burnout:
330'-5.515
1/8 -8.217
MPH- 88.90


I saw him run again afterward when I was picking up my trophy after I whiiped his A$$ headsup and he ran a 8.4 at 89.xx

i think I know why Im not doing better than 12.5 and 8.0.... my 60' times have never been below 1.87

tonight in my four times my best 60' was 1.88, but everyone of my R/T was .0x i have 1 RT that was 1.03... so I think im getting a good jump, but why arent my 60' times any better?

i guess im still spinning a little or something....when I take off, should I maybe ease into it a little or just punch it from the begining... iv been just all out punching it....

Its starting to look good your 60' can get alittle better 1.8-1.76 range and need to work on that reaction time somewhere around .00x not.0x!!!:tu: Then after that u might hit a 7.9 then u will be running pretty good!

I don't know what the hell is wrong with my truck!!! I have a stall, tb's, and run on shorter 26" slicks and cant seem to run 1.7's!!! There ain't nothing like dropping 3k just to go 3-4 .10ths SLOWER!!!! :flaming:
