I spoke to John ( floor it ) a few minutes yesterday and he tells me he qualified 13th in his 3rd gen at Indy. This was after a guy ran a redlight and T-boned them yesterday totalling the haul truck and trailer. The pulling truck nearly fell off the trailer but was saved by the guys truck at which it came to a rest on its top. John and family were fine, but shaken up pretty bad. The driver of the other truck was severly injured and may not have made it out of the mess alive. Lets hope so.

Anyway, when the puling truck was hit it shook it up pretty hard and somehow cut some wires to the pressure box. John did the 13th place with no pressure. Looks like he got that taken care of and now has the pressure working. Hopefully he will do better today with some more power to play with.

The announcer at IRP said something about the accident happening and the truck falling off of the trailer, but not all the way.
His truck pulled pretty nicely, the track was alot tighter later in the day.
The first guys out were pulling in loose dust!

I think Ray got 4th in qualifying yesterday. I dont know when or where he pulled in order. Something like 70 trucks were entered in the pulls. I will get a more complete report tonight when things settle down some.

Thats SWEET!!!!!!!!!

Where do you guys find the pulls? What safety stuff do I need to do pulls? It looks like fun since my 3 speed can't do 1/4 mile anyway.

So hoe did you do in the 300' with just the mods in your sig?

You need to look up a local pullers organization in your state.

The mods in the signature are what it took to make the 2 FULL PULLS+

For electronics...
The TST POWERMAX!, Bully Dog Downloader, and TS Performance RAMIFIER!

I would say right now right at 500rwhp with the addition of the Bullydog.
The B104 is an aftermarket turbocharger.

Thanks for the reply,I guess the reason mine seems so slow is the tire difference,I leave with the sled and about 160 I'm already out of rpm!!!
