So that 7.88.....

I'd have seriously pooped myself at 181 in a 4wd, 4500 lb truck.

Amazing job, Firepunks.

Absolutely boot scootin! My hats off to them guys. IDK how they continually stay on top. Nothing short of amazing.

How much faster will their 2wd prostock truck go?

Very nice and impressive pass for sure. How do ya'll think the NHRA or NHRDA will handle the safety side of this? I know what 4500 and 90 something mph will do to a guardrail........

We discussed your trip to the other side this weekend. They legally can't go faster than a .99......but ya get one warning!

Amazing job, Firepunks.
And he was skating too, GregA has a video of that pass that shows just how sketchy it was... Props to Lavon for staying in it.

What's crazy is the characteristics of these trucks at that caliber . Back in the 12V days you would have a truck that would lope and gurgle so much on the heavy fueled 16mm pumps. Lavon's truck sounds just as smooth as a street driven truck!

How does his setup run so strong time and time again when so many others are constantly battling gremlins? He’s got it dialed in for sure!

He blew an engine to kingdom come on the dyno not too much prior to UCC 18 didn't he? It's just unreal what they've accomplished all the while others are also trying their absolute best to dethrone them. Just amazed no one has built a better widget yet. Amazing!
