Race truck to true street truck isn't really comparable. I have a feeling he'll get 11.60's out of it before all said and done, atleast I hope so. Congrats on being the fastest street lbz out there. Just something to add on your shirts and hooded sweat shirts( please) when you have time to get some done

Really not going for "the fastest", just cool to be running well(Is kind of a rush though). I remember when Pat and I ran back and forth for a bit with the LLY's back when 12's was a goal. Whole new era now, I'm just a slow guy now. Just trying to beat my own times and have some fun along the way.

Truck is running sweet, today I didn't get a time trial and went right into elim's. First round I cut a .019 light and was on the brakes dropping 10+mph and still ran a 11.83 @ 105.2. The next few rounds I was on the brakes also. The 1000' time looked good for a 11.6/7 run. Hopefully tomorrow I'll be able to run it out in a time trial.

I didn't realize that truck had gone that fast.

If I recall stock motor and bottle.

It was getting worked on at Northeast Performance Diesel in Greenville,NH. Jan 6th of this year they had a explosion from snow sliding off the roof & breaking a propane line running into the building. Propane filled the shop & ignited when the waste oil heater kicked on.
