7.68 1/4 !!

[jbarker@bankspower]

Couple of questions:

1) Why are the wastgate dumps pointing out over the fenders?

2) Where's the time slip (I'd like to see the 60' time on this one)

3) Why are the staging lights still on after the truck left?

Here we go again

Look how low his body side is to the ground. None the less it does sound like it's running good. Jeff

He must not think much of the intelligence of other drag racers to try and pull this one:roflmao:

Congrats. Did you smoke the lights and that's why it stayed on? I don't doubt any of the time at all; however, I would like to see your 60'.

I doubt that time in every way shape and form. There's no way that's a legit 7.68 run. For example here's our time slip from a run in 2008:
we went 14mph faster and our 60' time was much quicker yet Wade went quicker?

Here's our time slip from Topeka. Again, quicker 60', 16mph higher top speed (and the staging lights shut off when the truck moved forward:roflmao:

Well, I am not into all that. Both of you guys are on the top of the hill so who am I to say. Hell, I thought it was a feat for me to get into the 12s on a stock trans. LOL

You guys are elite company so I will leave the bickering. I just wanted to see a 60' time on his slip, and unless I catch it red-handed I choose to believe people are speaking the truth.

after watching the vid it's true the smoke caused a false result, the start got tripped by the body and the 60ft clock got triped by the body(carrying the wheels) thus throwing off the ET. the 60 was a 1.17 so i assumed everything was OK.

Were fixing the exhaust issue before we go out next time.

Thanks

Good on you for owning it. Regardless, congrats on the run. You guys definitely seem to be making some progress.

We have not changed the tune since this time last year it's all in the convertor, and we are trying to make the best with what we have.

i feel that with in the next 3 times out we will have it right. Thanks

That truck is moving Wade, would be great if both you and the Banks truck could make it to Topeka, that would be a great show.:thumb:

X2 also would like to see that.

 

[ecc_33]

And i'll be putting mine in there place...LOL j/k :thumb:

To do that wade, you're going to have to actually produce a time slip:roflmao: And after watching all your videos I'm noticing something. Why is it your camera man keeps zooming in right as you stage? You know cutting off the tree? I've looked them over and the only 3 I can find where the tree is in view you smoke the lights EVERY time.

For example,

Here you smoke the lights:
http://www.youtube.com/user/str8tq?blend=4&ob=5#p/u

And here you smoke the lights:
http://www.youtube.com/user/str8tq?blend=4&ob=5#p/u/1/98JZD0QIWAM

and HERE you smoke the lights (it should be noted that the other vids at this same location the camera moves keep the tree out of view):
http://www.youtube.com/user/str8tq?blend=4&ob=5#p/u/9/9SBlkWXY__I

and then there's the little problem of you seemingly unable to produce a time slip anywhere and there's not a single video showing your "great" runs anywhere as, for some reason the tower can't be seen or the tree can't!:rofl:

 

[Diesel power]

The vids are focused on the truck and what it does at launch, so we can tune it better, thats why the camera guy zooms in.

there are several vids there to watch that are just fine...and i've posted several slips on cump d

Here's what gets me, if i WAS not in contention to snatch your title, then why scrutinize my passes? i think your scared....

Bottom line is that i've only got a mear 10% of your resources and budget and within 42 passes TOTAL im all over your bumper and you know it. And the truck is far from perfect.



But you just wait untill we go out next.....Bet you bite your lip then!

Untill next time, go wax the car in the museum....while were supporting our sport.....all year long!

 

[jbarker@bankspower]

This is just too easy:

The vids are focused on the truck and what it does at launch, so we can tune it better, thats why the camera guy zooms in.
So you admit your smoking the lights out and posting your times as a factual run?there are several vids there to watch that are just fine...and i've posted several slips on cump d
I looked them up, and the problem remains, can't see the tree can't see the tower. Your times have NOTHING backing them up.

Here's what gets me, if i WAS not in contention to snatch your title, then why scrutinize my passes? i think your scared.... I'm answering because, as always you run your mouth much faster then your truck
Bottom line is that i've only got a mear 10% of your resources and budget and within 42 passes TOTAL im all over your bumper and you know it. And the truck is far from perfect.
This has what to do with you deliberatly smoking the lights and posting up bogus times? All over our bumper? How on earth would you know that unless you are beliving the bogus times you're throwing around. Try not to start beliving your own BS

But you just wait untill we go out next.....Bet you bite your lip then!
Quit smoking the lights out and I'll wait for your excuses as to why your truck suddely got "slower"
Untill next time, go wax the car in the museum....while were supporting our sport.....all year long! What "support" have you given the sport exactly? What contribution have you made? What have you actually done other then blatently cheat at the track and then pat yourself on the back for it? How many vendors have you thrown under the bus after you got the info you needed out of them? Please I'd really like to know the answer to this one:roflmao:

Post a time slip for once and make it all go away:rofl:
