New 1/4 mile times

Just got back from the track and ran a 13.72@101 with an ATI converter and nitrous with a .073 jet,60' was a poor 2.17 spinning the tires
first run with the nitrous I ran my fastest 1/8 mile time 8.64@80 let off the nitrous a little past 1/8 mile and ran a 13.89@92
I uploaded the video on youtube but can not get the link to work on the forum,search 20090506174550 on youtube for the 13.72 run

These D250's are nothing to sneeze at.

Mine weighs 5460Lbs, Yours has to be very close to that.

Didn't have time to put them on plus it was going to rain and I didn't want to be stuck at the track if it started to rain

We are planning to go down next wedsenday with the slicks and a .110 nitrous jet

Remember for the bigger jet sizes to work on the nitrous you'll need a -6 feed line, and a -4 line with a -3 end from the solenoid to the nozzle, otherwise your lines will be a restriction.

Yea i said the same thing.

I can really tell it has a good converter in it, it stalls low and just takes off, It actually loads the engine up unlike a stock converter!!!

That truck is awesome, what a way to represent first gens.

Nice running truck and I agree is a great way to represent first gens and diesels for that matter. Hey, as long as your beating a gas powered vehicle and a Mustang at that it's fine by me! I don't really even like Mustangs and I loved watching the video.
