its ok at least you can rest easy knowing you could tow him and he wouldn't have beat you unless the driver weighed like a pound you get a fat guy in one of those things and it looks like the cars trying to follow a formula car through a turn and gunna flip sittin still

 

Heck dont worry about beating him just Know you can run over him and Smile

 

my truck is just slooooooooooowwwwwwww, thats it, it wont run over about 70-75 during the day on the freeway, at night it runs awesome, probably about 85. going to xenia truck pull yesterday i was i na hurry and it just wasnt moving fast enough and the geo drove right by me with the cruise control on like nothin even happened.

 

Its seems like you should do over 75? Are you sure you are getting full throttle? I would check your linkage.

 

my linkage will go til it hits the throttle stop

 

Well, once you do the spring and the pump, it will do wonders. Is it a auto?

I beat a 6.uh oh on the street from a stop. He was straight piped and if they came with silencer rings, it was MIA. By the time I hit 3rd, he was just past my front bumper. He even did a power brake getting the turbo spooled. When I hit 5th @ 65, he was reading my liscence plate. At 80 mph, I gave a few victory puffs. Made my day and killed his.

Youve got to be auto...I could only run 80 on a good day with my 727. Now with 3.07s and getrag, I should be able to run 140ish....not that i will cause im, well....SANE! and no sane person would go that in a 1st gen.

 

yeah just remove the high idle fuel screw

 

Gimme a 2wd truck with 3.07's and the getrag, the texas mile strip....I will try it.

 

Hey if I could find a good place to run mine straight out Id do it...check my sig ...I need my 4" downpipe as my egts slow me down a bit in overdrive, then we can run it all we want. Ive had it to 95 but it took me a couple steps into the throttle as I had to let out when I saw 1300.

 

yeah its an auto, i wish it was a G56 with the 3.07's. once i get the spring its getting put to the max.

 

I shoulda done the spring on mine a long time ago. Im still gonna, cause with the 3.07s and getrag, I can rev it all the way out in 3rd, and cause of the super high gears, 4th still lugs a little.

 

Why wait for the spring? Go out there and turn some screws.
