nice..

go to the site, that 600 rwhp is pretty sweet too, and if you havent that pull video, the full one has a crazy 6.9 in it, the shasta one... he he he he check it out if you have a minute..

Seems to me that powerstroke was stock... the cummins made short work of it in no time, but the low end grunt the cummins provided was the key...

Look at the way the Ford's rear end is hopping and the front tires aren't smoking.
Makes me think the Fordster forgot to put it in 4wd.
Can't see Dodge's front tires good enough to see what's going on with them.

the dodge was smoking the tires on the second pull. power is not what is needed to win in a pull off, weight and wait for the other guy to break his tires loose and then you have them. that is exactly what the dodge did.

you can hear the streeeetch in the strap. On the second run, the ford pulls him for just a second then the rodeo begins.

thats just too funny.

Our crew was at the same hotel and got to know the guy in the dodge.1900 lbs. of tracter weights dont hurt traction at all.The guy in the ford was asking for it. He was a complete idiot when it came to burnouts and trying to do donuts.He peeled his rear tire off the rim on a curb the first time and did not learn.
