Thanks man Im pretty sure ill make it. Im pretty pumped about racing and watching you, bri bri and whoever else with built motors run down the track! I think I talked a guy outa clovis with a built motor into coming also. Tryin to get a few other guys from west TX to show up to:thumb:How is your motor coming along man?

Ill be there with my built shit but I ain't racing. Well maybe the ford/dodge/Chevy that is towing , ill race lol

Well bad news guys my trans took a shit on me in my LB7 :( stocker with 225k on her and guess she got tired of the beating. Now I have to make a decision.. Build it this next week and race it on the 29th maybe break into 12s. Or build it and still run my LLY? I just cant afford to break anything else at this point since my trans went today. So if I build it and break my lly at the track ill be hurting the wallet pretty bad lol

We all understand tough decisions that have to do with a hurting on the wallet. Why not drive the LLY and run it? I doubt anything is gonna happen to it but racing is always a risk no way around that. What about getting a Clovis guy or west TX guy to tow the LLY?

Option 2 is build the LB7 Trans stock to save some $ then have it to tow the LLY

What I think im gonna do Damian is park the LB7 for a week or two cuz I just got ahold of an buddy that has a stock 5 speed that came outa salvage truck. That should save me a lot of $$. With that idea ill prolly just use one of the ranches dmaxs to tow the LLY there. If I tow it there on my trailer I will have lots of tools, wobble sockets, small to large cordless impacts, extra CV shaft, new tie rods, and prolly bring a few more other parts incase someone isn't setup properly launching off the line and breaks shit like the first year. I have lots of front end stuff from our ranch having more then a dozen damn work dmaxs. If yall think of anything else parts wise you think we may need just let me know I prolly have it in the shop.

Glad you've got a plan. And that's cool of you to bring parts/tools with others in mind!:thumb: Funny you bring that up from two years ago...That guy tried to launch with washers around his tie rods right? Jeez took forever to get him onto a trailer and off the track! He almost hit the wall!!

LMAO hopefully this year lots of diesels show up so far its looking pretty good :woott:

Sure trying to get guys to come. I guess I'll go ahead and let everyone know I will officially be hosting a meet n greet lunch on Saturday the 29th. I will have burgers, hot dogs, chips, salsa, and cold drinks. Everyone coming for the event is invited and if guys want to wash their trucks and shine em up before the races we should have plenty of room to do that as well!

Well change of plans... went down to my buddies place who had the stock alli that came out of an wrecked 02 and that tranny has a pretty massive crack so tomorrow the lb7 its getting a fully built trans:woott:Ill still make it to races but still debating to race the lb7. Not racing the LLY as I for sure cant afford to have it break. So my situation is a win loose in a way
