Back to mud racing.
Had a race in Porter, OK last night. I didn't do as well as I wanted too, but I had crappy draws in both class 2 and class 3, I ran first in both. Not where you want to run. In class 2, I didn't make it through in either of my passes.
Since I went first, I'm allowed to run again after the second truck makes a pass. The truck ran good, I hit third in all 3 passes and was hitting about 55lbs of boost on the gauge, with the pyro pegged. I need to move the fuel plate back some with the new injectors and delivery valves in.
I hit a deep hole on my first two passes and didn't make it out. There were alot of trucks in class 2 and 3 that didn't make it through that hole.
I managed to get 4th in the class though for class 2. On my class 3 run, I hugged the right wall as best as I could and made a full timed pass, but flattened both front tires in the effort.
I also managed to fill up my ice box a little too much and it swelled up pretty good. Going to have to see what I can do to straighten it back out before the next race.
I forgot to turn on the go pro in the cab for the first run, and after that, the windshield was so covered in mud, it wouldn't have done any good after that, so I don't have any in cab video. The second run in class 2 was done pretty much blind, I couldn't see out the windshield or side windows at all. I managed to get the front windshield cleaned better for the class 3 run though.
All three launches were at 20psi off the trans brake.
We managed to get the front tires aired back up to get it loaded last night, we used the sticky mud to pack into the beeds, jacked one side up at a time, hit it with an air tank and held the tire on the bead until it took air, then put my little pump on it to get it aired on up, the other tire, we jacked it up, put the remaining air from the tank into it and then finished getting it aired up with my little pump. Both tires are still up this morning.
The truck is just a little muddy after 3 runs last night:
