I was there, in the stands. It would have been a waste of time for me to enter in the pulls, as I couldn't compete with an open rear diff, street tires, and 350HP.

Who says you need to win to have fun, I am only putting 350 to the ground and was running street tires and I managed to place 17th out of 27 trucks, while still having a great time and talking to lots of people who know a lot more about pulling than I do. BTW, one of the trucks that tied for 1st is only putting about 375 to the ground through an auto with mud terrains...

Video is on its way!

I would be more interested if I had a rear Powerlock..... I saw you out there Cory, you were running All terrains, not streety tires. I'm talking Michelin M/S's on my truck. Shoot man, you've got to be making more power than that, I thought you ran a 13 something quarter, My best was a 15.8 in Sac a couple weekends back. If you remember, I had the Red Sport long bed.

Well I did say "about 375hp". I talked with Alex for a while on saturday and that was his estimate. I was just trying to make a point that you dont have to have a ton of HP just to go out and have some fun. BTW, is this Josh?

Yep this is Josh, and yes I totally agree that it was not a horsepower track. Everyone wants to win but it is still great fun even when you dont. There was alot of low hp trucks there too. I think Alex's estimate is a bit low

Oh I agree that you don't have to win to have fun, I wasn't even near the fastest in Sac a few weeks ago but had more fun than I have in a long time.
