I heard that. Its a slow process, but being in school, and working 3 nights a week for $8 an hour dont help out. I have injectors(new era 370's), just kinda waiting till im well on the way to a tranny before I put em in

yea i'll be hooking too, prolly be losing tho because ill be in the 2.8 class and those boys are serious, but it will be fun to hook at a national event and at least get some good video with one of the big sleds.
i think im gonna run 6th gear tho, see if i can get some wheel speed.

I think there is too much of a peeing contest going on, GetBlown5.9 asked for advice and Cumminsdriver635 gave his input. Plain and simple if you don't want to listen to opinions don't ask for them! Everyone gettin' bent outta shape needs to lighten up... lol

Looks good GB5.9. Sharp truck. And BTW that is the CRAZIEST sled ive ever seen On the first hook i think a lil higher gear would have maybe helped some, but with that sled, and the track bein so loose like it was it wouldnt have mattered much. 2nd hook looked great. Looked more like a normal track and sled. Youre in deep trouble now though, youve got the BUG! Pulling is so addictive. Im waiting for them to offer a patch for my pulling addiction Ive only hooked my truck about 5times, but its a blast each and every time, whether i do good or do bad. Its just fun I should be hookin down at the bowling green pull here in a couple weeks if everything goes as planned. Maybe we'll see ya down there.
