Drag raced the truck this weekend
Well, I finally got to 1/4 mile race my truck to see what it would do in 100% stock form (except for a drop in air filter). It went 15.66 at just under 85 MPH. I left in 4 wheel drive with the boost up and then shifted out of 4 wheel after the truck got rolling. It did a 2.20 60 foot. I was very happy with its overall performance considering it is all stock and weighs 7000 pounds.
Nice times....but seen a little high for STOCK....I went last weekend and ran a best of 15.1 with SMARTY on SW#3 leaving with a 5-7psi 4wd boosted launch. Anyways nice to see others out there willing to throw down a $35K truck at the track....

Was this at Pacific Raceway? I was out there in my white 2001. There were two other CTD trucks one ran 15.?? the other 17.?? a red pwrstrk 15.6 @ 85.
I ran 14.20 @ 95.7 ,1.96 60" with a 10# launch and the little lady along for the ride.

No, it wasn't at Pacific Raceway. It did go a little quicker then I would have expected it to. A guy I know has almost the same truck and his in stock form went 16.0, looks like I got a good running one
That is awesome for a stock truck. Best I ran was a 15.3.... But that handshaker 6- speed was killing me. Couldn't keep the boost up, and I am sure the 35s weren't helping. Put it in perspective my 02 Powerstroke with the 7.3 took a 100 HP chip to run a 15.6... Of course now with the BTS trans I'd like to run again and see how it does....
