Andrew.. Looking good so far this year..at least your playing with your truck. Mines still in a few hundred pieces lol

Yes pulling is very addicting... Just thought I'd let you know next season you will have some additional company...seems Kelli wants to go truck pulling.

Think I could get away with a 1978 Cummins powered Dodge? I happen to know where there is a sweat Dana 70/70 extended wheelbase standard cab single wheel Dodge for a fair price....I have been considering, it sure would make a sweet pull rig lol

NoRM
1985 Crew Cab short box "stock" lol

I don't think you would have any issues pulling at 90% of the pulls around here with a "mut of a truck".

The more the merrier

That does sound like a pretty sweet rig

Is it the one you showed me a while back?

I figured that. What I meant was, is this a club here on this site, or a club where pulltilbroke lives? How do you become a member(other than have a truck with one stack)?

I pulled the cummins ramcharger again last night as well. Got 222' in the under 6000#, under 400cu. in., modified class. I figure it is not too bad for a short wheelbase basically stock 91.5 ctd with open diffs and no traction bars.

My daughter then pulled it and got 203'. We drove it there and drove it home 1 1/2 hours each way. A good day.

I think he is trying to get the clutch through the year. We have talked about gear changes but it wasn't worth the chance of not being able to hook the rest of the year.
He will have more power and a better clutch next year.

LoL....I take that to mean I should line up an extra cab or two?....he's worrisome now ;-P

I personally will just be happy if I get my Crew Cab running before Winter...at the rate I am going it's not looking good.
