When you get really serious and decide to lose most of the interior for a run on the track...I'm not helping you load and unload.

Don't see Brian on there either? I only see 3 manual trannys (2- 5 speeds and Banshee's 6 speed) ahead of your best time!

No one is running it anymore, so you each just need to copy & drag the last one to a new post....and plug yourselves in!

Need to get Mike on there also...when he gets a new clutch!

I'd be embarrassed to put my lousy 15.288 time on there... I was just proud to say I had run it...that's all. NOT THE TIME. Let me get a trans and break into the 14s at least...

I will have to spend a butt load of money to get my pig into the 13s...

Did you happen to weigh yours on the track scales? Mine was 8288. Im sure I could drop some of that weight...but it would be hard to get far under 8000. Maybe 7800?

Next time I will be rolling on 265s probably, too. That would have to help some.

Sounds like everyone had a good time. Sorry I missed out.

I wondered why my camper bed was wet the last time Tyler used it.

It's a good thing we found out about that. I'm going to have to check mine when I get home to make sure that it didn't unload itself from my truck as well.

hey robert I got my heavy 6sp pig to run a 15.4 and had no idea it weighed 9270lbs, I'll bet you could run mid 14s because my dads old truck on 40s ran a 14.8 with an auto in Indy 2yrs ago stock everything other than electronics of course...

Wasn't automatic.... I had to plug it in to screw up my settings.
And thank you so much for asking.

I do wonder if an interrupted re-set automatically goes to stock?? That would at least save some face. No....probably not!

Buck....Wow! That is a great time for that much weight and a 6 speed! Im sure you are pushing a whole lot more power than me.

I think the biggest thing that would help is for the driver (me!) to get some experience. Somebody else driving my truck might have got 14.99.

Good to see you again! I'll be looking forward to your next event, whenever that will be.

You should have said something, I would have taken it down the track. Just as soon as you signed the release of liability and promised I didn't have to pick up the tranny parts that might have littered the track.
