Nothing to brag about from me. Had fun feeling my truck out though. Can't launch higher than 2k or bad wheel hop. Traction bars needed. Shifting....well, slow. Lol. Best time was 13.81 2wd.

Did much better in 4wd but only had two chances to feel it out. Second run better than first. If i had a few more I could have found a better rpm to launch from. Got 13.5 in 4wd. With more track time that will easily be in the 12's

High 13's seems like a good goal with your mods. Get your freaking true track in there!!!! You cant drag race an open diff truck, with over 350lbft!!! or if your impatient, you could do a Miller locker, just saying... :rock:... I have never ran 1/4, but 1/8 required a lot of finesse. Nailed out a 2.06 60', only ran 9.07 do to slow shifting and bad second gear, like everyone else...Also was like 90*s that day:rolleyez:

Im not going to complain too much about my run lol, considering i built her to go every which direction, other then straight. :blurock:

It was aweswome to meet up with you guys again. It was a very slow night for the track. It didn't even drop below 90 until like 9:00pm. Boosted XRs in the 14s, N/A XRs in the 16s. It. I wonder what the da was? Regardless though, was a ton of fun. :top:

Damn toon... I forgot to hit the button on the first pass, but hit on the 2nd run vs the evo. You sure its not there?

It was very good times, and good to get the houston crew together again. Been to long.

Toon and I had a good run. That was really?

The first time ive been to the track and not raced lol. Was fun to just spectate and hangout with everyone! It didnt get into the lower 90s till after 930pm so that was a factor for the times. I noticed everyones times were getting better the later it got and the more runs they had. Hope this was some good practice for texfest!

My best slip of the night...

Once I learn to launch the car properly, i'll be putting up much better numbers. DA was 2230' at the end of the night. DA corrected time was 12.3 @ 116mph.
