Talking Quarter mile run!!!

I finally ran my truck on the strip. first three runs were quite weak though 1st run i didnt build enough boost and snailed my way off the line running a 15.7, 2nd run i built a good amount of boost and then proceded to smoke the tires all the way down the track to a time of 16.8, 3rd run i put it in 4x4 and got mixed up, valet switch was off, convertor switch was off and i was i drive instead off first but suprisingly enough i ran a 15.8, finally my fourth run i was in 4 high and built a good amount of boost and ran a13.6 and after that run i ran a 13.9 and a cruddy 14.7, but i smoked two ricers and a duramax it was a blast.

I'll be running mine next month at Mopar Muscle Magic at Sacramento Raceway. Not sure how I'm gonna burnout in it with 3 pedals, but I'll try!

Take your left foot and put it sideways on the skinny pedal and the brake and slowly let out on the clutch while bringin the idle up and when the clutch is all the way out FLOOR IT and do a funny car burnout past the christmas tree......(i think you can do that if you have a big foot)

The 13.6sec 1/4 speed was 97.6 miles per hour, don't know if thats good or not, but i don't have any billet shafts in this tranny yet so i got to be careful when boost launching, ya it was a blast, i plan on goin again, but my back passenger tire is a little shot now, unfortunatley my truck is only a one legger maybe ican scrape the rubber off the truck bed and put it back on my tire
