I/we will be there(on time:doh:) with or without a truck and you can bet your raggedy red rag that if you light that first bulb it's a race.
Don't worry about deragged though that truck is too scared to show up.

The princess will feel left out at home in the dark bring it. She seems to enjoys the spankings.

I will line up with that red one, black one, or the other two white ones win or loose. Lets roll!

we will be heading out to do testing because the nhrda race in gainsville fl is the next weekend. i think we figured out to get the truck to spool so we r going to add more fuel and try to get some 10's out of it

If I can get a set of bars on my truck by then, I'll make a pass or two....if I can make it. Let's hope!

Got the new parts, fabbing things up now.
Hoping to be ready to test this weekend.

I'm doing my best to make my truck as fast as possible because Snow White is making me nervous....LOL

Cool, I can have our golf cart available to you for towing purposes.

That was gonna be my next question. No cooling system = pulling it back to the pits.

Everybody knows that the fast trucks are always pulled back to the pits.:rockwoot:

Guess I have to come now since the golf cart is in my garage. :D :D

Was able to make a few changes in plans and it looks like I'll make it out after all.

There I fixed it for you, I know you meant that you would be there with Snow Queen, one way or another. :poke:

OMG, THE Forrest Nearing is going to be there?? :rockwoot:

Got a few more go fast goodies coming.
We did a stall test over the weekend and nothing blew up...LOL
The FASS quit working but I'm hoping that's a simple fix.

Looking forward to seeing everyone again.

I don't think the "door" on that stall is up for any kind of test.

I'll make it next month. I didn't have time the past few weeks to repair everything from my front driveshaft snapping at the track 2 weeks ago.

Is it possible to see a 9 second pass tomorrow night? In August at that?

Anything is possible. Michael is getting real close to working out the bugs. Probably have everything working against a 9s pass tomorrow night, but if it hooks and doesn't blow it should be close.

One of these times my work schedule is going to let me make one of these events...

If the drive line stays together at that high of a PSI launch and it hooks I bet it will be very close. Depending on how much gas the driver has LOL

Snow White is ready, are you:hehe:

Allright, Mr. PowerStroke whats the wager?
I assume you are going to want concessions.
You get to run everything and I have to run fuel only, half throttle, you get the move and I can't use overdrive??
:lolly:

So snow white is a 12.5 Red Rocket is a 10:50ish on motor I would bet with the additional boost on the line. Just give him a 2 second lead or so and we would have a race if you want to call it that.

It was nice driving home with A/C, radio and comfort for a change. Good times and Mike congrats on that 10:29. I would say it looked great but all I saw was smoke and jaws drop.

What happened with stelly did he bust a boot or pop a turbo?

ramctd
08-07-2010, 03:18 AM
Well it was a fun, HOT night.

Snow White made a couple decent showings. David has backed up the 12.4s close enough. :Cheer: A little shot and she might be able to run in the Quick Diesel class. LOL

Little Red Cummings earned another trophy with a number of good runs. I am pretty sure I saw a 10.7s in there. :clap:

Stelly popped a boot on the way to the track and in the pits. When he gets the tune right and the boots to stay on it is definitely a 10s truck. :ft:

Tim had some decent launches, but I think his computer or trans was not cooperating fully. But it was great that he made it down, always enjoy talking with Tim. Hope to see him again. Hopefully it will be a little cooler next time and we will see some full passes out of DeRanged. Truck seems to be a 10s truck for sure. He will have to show me the 9s, hopefully back down here. :Cheer:

Michael set a new best for the race truck, 10.24s @ 135. That was on one the hottest days of the year and a single moderate shot. Cooler weather or both stages could have hit the 9s. Congratulations Michael. :woohoo:






Now there was a little issue with the motor after Michael run. Hopefully it is not major. Probably find out in the morning how bad it is. :doh:

VMAX

My bad I thought it was a 10:29.
