Good point....and confirmed by an expert

Ahh. I thought Brandon had a billet shaft considering his record of breaking stuff. I can't wait to do WOT locked shifts.

Anyone wanna guess what my new times will be now that I have the nitrous hooked up??? Best so far is in my sig. Ran at the track with the bottle a few times on a very slick track in January and could only get 13.01@113.1mph. A new best trap speed, but could'nt hook for crud with stock tires cause I only posted a 2.67 60ft. I have had many 60ft. times in the 2.01-2.15 range if this helps.

The next time out, I know the track will hook beter, then it's on to drag radials and 11's soon after. But I want to know what all I can get out of the truck before bolting on the traction aids.

I won't try to "guess" you new times but wanted to tell you that the "Caltrac Traction Bars" I installed on my 1996 Dodge CTD 12 valve cut 2/10ths of my E.T. in the 1/8th mile, added one MPH, and cut the 60ft. time by 1/10th also!
Tomorrow I will be at the "Mopar Nationals" in Rockingham, N.C. and will be running their nice 1/4 mile track. I am hoping to drop my 11.76 time some too.

Good luck with your truck!

Oh sorry, forgot to mention the traction bars in addition to drag radials, and they will be Cal-Tracs. Just wish I had a better selection of tires. But only can get the M&H's in a tall enough 17in rim size.

Thanks man,

Several of the NC-VA DTR crew laid down personal bests. After running a 14.4 on 40's, I new I could break into the 13's with the 6spd on 35's. But I had to work hard to get it cuz I SUK at rowing the gears. I was having trouble launching it without it bucking me to death.

Did you get your truck back yet?

Been there, done that. 6 speeds are fun on the track aren't they..... I think that is an awesome time seeing it is a 6 spd.

I got the truck back Sunday. My junkie itch will be soon get a fix after one last retorque in a few weeks.
