We have been thinking about doing that but we are not too sure yet on it. All four wrinkle wall might be a little too much to handle on the track. Not too sure but we will be thinking about some things this winter to get us faster by the summer.

Ran today 1/8th mile races ran a 7.061 1/8th @ 99 MPH.... works out to be approx an 11.00 run..... Not too long and I will be a contender. Still have a little bit of traction issues. Track temp today was 100 degrees and I still am breaking all four tires loose. Toyo/s Proxis ST aired down to 20 PSI.

How is that compared to the rest of the field? Who else is down there? Any vids? How long till you're back?

Anyone know where to get a 4bta for a decent price?

Fellas I have a couple of items for sale...

I have two stock Michelin tires for a second gen (265's) (I can measure the tread if anyone is interested), and a brand new (never been mounted) black powdercoated Aries Grill Guard for a second gen. PM me if you are interested.

Speaking of selling stuff, I will soon have a TST PM3 Comp and a Edge Comp Drag for a 01' Dodge for sale. Lil' Dog, Rocky Mountain Offroad went under like the Titanic when Mark sold it. I can't say anymore for the fear of getting sued!!! Blew my frikin' heater core yesterday, I trhink that was due to 50 psi getting into the cooling system??? This truck is getting to me!!!

Has anyone talked to this Martin fellow at afi? I have been trying to get ahold of him, I phone him at differnt times of the day, never an answer... and his voice mail is allways full.

I would like to get ahold of him to book some dyno time before the dyno day, I would like to do some testing with the stuff I have

Hows your oil level? Do you have any smoke at idle? Those are a couple of quick ideas,,,, or if you have access to a scan tool that would tell you quickly

Two guys in Forestburg also want to come to this dyno. One guy is supposed to have a pretty hot 3rd gen, but I never did see it run.
