I read that Jeff (stingpuller) ran some 11.2x @12x during test and tune today, and Matt (camomax) ran some 11.3x also!

What has Ben ran in the Escalade though ? :roflmao:

kyle tuned the ecm, im gonna tune the TCM tomorrow after we pull the exhaust off. Its loving some extra timing, even with a decent amount extra its just barely going into KR. This is on crap 87 octane fuel too. Kyle still needs to tweak the midrange a bit but it pulls pretty sweet up top with his base tune once you wind it out, and the GMT-900 light duty chassis is spot on...rock solid at higher speeds, great brakes too. Riding in a GMT-800 light duty SUV I start to feel uneasy around 90-95mph. The -900's are very stable and tight IMO.

The 6L80 is sweet too, in tow/haul it has grade braking and drives pretty much like an allison.

These L92's are monsters. All aluminum, 403hp/417tq stock, 6.2 liters, variable valve timing, and a badass-flowing set of heads. Ive heard that with a good tune you can touch 500hp (at the crank) on an otherwise completely stock engine. Long live the GM Gen III/Gen IV small block. :D

So how did qualfying turn out? Is Matt the only one from here that made it thru round 1?

There wasn't all that many trucks that ran qualifying passes today, less than 20 I believe ran. Seen 3 different DODGE trannies apart in the pits after test and tune though(one of them was SUNCOASTS new DODGE that they abandoned the 68RFE for a 48RE and it smoked some clutches on em). At least a DMAX was the first one to put up a 10 second pass when it counted.

There aint nothing to it really. That truck is stripped down pretty much bare bones nothin but engine and drivetrain. And I can only imagine how much money they have in there turbo as it has a BIG impeller hiding behind that protrusion.

You need to find me tomorrow so I can shake your hand. We'll be by ED or Jeff or Brayden. Ask Eric Merchant where I am. My truck will be there also. Black, has B & B Pulling Team across the windshield & ProFab Performance decals on the bed

Impressive.

My guess on the hp is 750rwhp.

This is based on when Casper was 6420lb at HRP with 754rwhp, and ran 10.89.

Anyone know how fast the second quickest Dodge went?
