Needed lots of help. Didn't have any problems other than trailer brakes not working on the way out and just as we got there barked the turbo and blew a fin off. Got the trailer brakes fixed and drove back with a busted turbo and still averaged 10mpg+ for the whole trip. I didn't scale but est. weight around 28k-30k.
Real problem was neither truck got to compete.
It was great seeing JB run that truck down to the end of the track. Wish the track had been good still for CD to get down there too.

Yeah the track really went away just in an hour. But that really wasnt the hole problem, the track was so slick, it caused the bouncy action, spin, grab, spin, grab. BS.. It was starting to come out when the crank case filled with coolint, and hydrolocked the motor= screeching hult... It freaking sucked.... Not just my pull but the hole wkend

Did beasley win the pull? I agree the weekend as a whole sucked, we hauled straightpipe down to race and he finally was able to run the dyno. And how about that dyno with the jacked up numbers. No consistancy.

Glad you pulled at least somewhat early so we could see it before we left after midnight. I guess beasly won so congrats to him. I guess it lasted till daylight what a joke.
