Well ladies and gentelmen. I just completed a full night of Test-N-Tune at Memphis Motorsports park. Came away with a new personal best 1/4mi. time of 12.66@109.4mph!!!!!!

Am I the only one attemting this witha 2wd??? I see on the best times list that all 3rd gens are 4wd. And 2wd alltogether are scarce.

Oh, and this is still running stock rubber @ a lowered 30psi.

 

Impressive times, SS! I have seen very few 2wd trucks on this board period. Much less bombing and racing. Keep up the good work.

 

I'm thinking about joining you there w/ a 2wd. I would still keep the 4x4 too though. i just can't make up my mind what I want to do. So tell us, how do you get it to hook up on a boosted launch???? Slicks?

 

SS, are you runnin the hot juice yet or is your sig correct?
12.66, that is smokin.


Dzilla, what happened to the solar yellow 05?

 

No man, you are not the fastest 2WD. There are a lot of 2WD trucks out there most of them purpose built for drag racing. They are way faster than a 12.66.

Sorry Dude.

 

I'm one of the oddballs with a 2WD CTD here... I didn't realize how uncommon the 2WD was. It seems EVERYONE here has a 4x4...

 

According to DC, 70% of 2500 and 3500 sales are 4wd trucks.

 

I have ridden in SS's truck, and although it was raining that day, and I did not get to see what it would really do, it could break the tires loose at 60mph on the wet pavement...

I am willing to bet he is one of the fastest in a 2wd that is just a daily driver.

 

Wap, Don't ask.........

 

I would definately agree with that statement. great numbers!

 

what setup were you running to run that time?

 

Comp on the TDR has a 03 2wd. I think he broke into the 11's with it.

Awesome numbers tho!!!

 

I think you're right.

Of course, he did have drag radials, a modded CP3, ported head w/ aftermarket intake manifold, cam, and of course, nitrous.

Keep up the good work SS.

 

No, my sig is not lying. Still the reg. Juice box. Tested out both the BDPP and my new Diablo Predator and turned nearly identical times. 12.66 w/BDPP, 12.67 w/Diablo. And still with crappy 60ft times of 2.05-2.10sec. The BDPP would get out of the hole quicker, but loss some at the top end. All #2, no gas of any kind as stated before, stock rubber also.

All times were at 109mph as that was the speed limiter kicking in with about 100-150ft left of track. With a top speed eliminator times would prob be in the 12.5sec. range at 112mph or so.

Also, this was not just a 1 time occurance. I also posted a 12.67, 12.72, and the 1st break of the night into the 12's was at 12.84.

It was awsome being the center of atttention last nite at the track. There were a couple 8sec. cars there. And guess who everyone would start running to the launch pad area to see run? Everytime I would line up in the staging area, I had a flock of onlookers hovering around. I think they feel our corner of the peformance area is still like the gasser's, with everything being secret and stuff. Cause they seemed surprised when I motioned them over to let them look at what I had. Most walked away in amazement at the lack of flashiness under the hood.

 

Thats awesome!! Can still hear the excitement in what you write, good job!
