doesn't seem bad at all. I would say that is pretty good for a big rig. How ws the turn out tonight?

I almost went with the car tonight, but I didn't feel like getting out there and being disappointed with the track prep. I usually can't stick on test and tune days. I am almost certain going to try it next fri night. Hoping they will let me run the 1/4.

Those seem like some pretty good numbers. Id be interested in what a 10psi launch would have done. Were you in 4wd?

Thats about as cool as struttin down a dark, full, movie theater with drinks and tripping inches before your seat. Sometimes I do it just for fun.

Sounds like a blast, I cant wait.

try leavin between 10 and 14 psi. You should be able to break into the 13's.

Nice work!

Those aren't bad times.... I miss watching ya'll kick GTO's and Mustangs butts... My trucks a different animal compared to what it was when I was there, but having a 6 speed I think I'd still perfer to just watch and film.

One of my slower videos but...I know 20PSI launches dont work so well for me! If you dont have a lock up switch get one. I can drop 4 10ths of my 1/4 time with my co pilot. Good job!
