Guess I'm not following that one? Who lost in 2003? I wan't into diesel drag racing yet? Met Bill a couple of times, good guy and I know he will have Ernie running well. good show. We'll be ready as well.

*IdahoRob* · 09-01-2009, 11:01 PM

Cool, I'm looking forward to some good racing. I'll try to be on my "A" game to go against some of the west's best!

SNOOT · 09-01-2009, 11:05 PM

You run better then the 9.94 in your sig Subman631? I can remember seeing Fletcher run a 9.90 a couple years ago. Sure would be a good race to see.

Burner · 09-01-2009, 11:09 PM

I'd like to see this.

No we haven't run faster than that 9.94, but we haven't tried either. Rocky Mtn Raceway is pretty high elevation and usually pretty slick. Probably difficult to run in the 9's, at least for us, Fletcher many have some new tricks however.

SNOOT · 09-01-2009, 11:23 PM

Whats Fletchers rig hold 500 gallons of fuel?

Burner · 09-01-2009, 11:27 PM

umm, I don't think quite that much but you're close.

Well he's probably not driving Ernie that's for sure.

Didn't look good and it was raining like hell from Boise south to Nevada so we decided not to come. Fletcher wouldn't have raced us anyway. We're coming to the Weekend on the Edge and I'd like someone to race who we don't have to give a couple of seconds head start, preferably a dodge because we like them. You happen to know of any that can run a 1/4 more than once without breaking bring them down.

Ya and I'm gonna blow your doors off jk lol its gonna be fun truck is running!!!!!!!

A driver with the initials NW was around in 2003.

Since you brought up initials I'm sure you are refering to me and no I'm not sour about losing 6 years ago. I'm not even going to the race. I'll be in the mountains camping. Ken thought it would be a good idea to get some potentially close competition. Plus Rob can run on the slicks before Boise in October. RMR isn't really the best spot to set the world on fire for drag racing but all that matters is who crosses the line first. I predict a white truck will win.

*IdahoRob* · 09-02-2009, 11:11 PM

Just because Nathan, Ken, and I are on the same race team does not mean we know about what each is going to post on the web. The is no "hidden" agenda behind what one of us posts.

I had no idea about the "call out" until I read it here. After talking to Ken, he is just trying to get some interest going in the sport. I don't believe there is any animosity between the two.

Don't look too deep into things.

Would be fun to have 6+, 10 sec(and faster) trucks at one event, so if call outs work, you will see more of them.

i talked to a couple guys last weekend that will be there with really fast dmax's, cant remember their names but they were from slc, one white reg. cab and a red extra cab it think. both came to my local 1/8th mi in socal and spanked everything nearby. they mentioned stirring it up for the event, great idea i say!! hope it drags some people out of the woodwork. but to say someone is still bitter about some crap in 2003..hopefully that person has some better material, but im guessing thats the last time fltcher put a hurting on anybody.

good luck rob and company!!

Trent Larson(sp) and Demitri or it could have been Tim. They are really cool guys and you're correct, very fast Duramaxes. They've ran in the street legal series that I run in at RMR and it's impressive to say the least. I am excited for tomorrow.

9.92, and he was booted off the track for it. I'm sure he's fixed it by now. But I doubt it matters. With the elevation it will probably be difficult for either of them to get into the 9's.
