Hey Paul B got a ?

I heard a rumor about how many 1/4 mile passes you made last year with your truck.

It sounded crazy, but the "Source" ( some pun intended ) is credible.

So how many passes did you make and how many total miles do you have racing now?

1000 passes multiplied by 1/4 mile = 250 miles of hard running at the track? LOL

Over 600 passes last year, which makes more then 1000 total passes on the pickup. I log them all too! Never thought of it in miles... I was up seeing your "Source", and he (well actually Jerry), put in a Helix 2 cam, and a few other trick items. What an amazing difference, in how the truck drives. It's much more responsive, and cruise EGT's are at least 100 degrees lower. Don't know about WOT EGT's yet. Weather conditions don't really allow much of that right now. First race of the 2007 season will be at Sacramento on Jan 1, 2007. It's their annual cash race. Maybe 700 passes this year?

Oh, yeah... It does do other things besides race...

That's great. I said the thing to a guy the other day when I had 16 round bales behind the truck at the feed store.
