As a side note the Speedworld staff would like to thank everyone, this was the largest event they have had in then past 5 years.
That's great. It's this kind of event that will help grow diesel motorsports. Congrats to NHRDA and all the competitors and spectators putting on a successful show.

Damn Whiteout is a fast truck also. Way to keep on it Newly, your truck looks like a handfull. I might just have to fly out next year and watch in person. Thanks again to all the people who took vids and pics, it almost makes me feel as though I was there.

FYI... WhiteOut is Ken's (Subman) truck.

White Out had some issues as was said, had never made a pass with the new set up. Major fuel suppy issue, must be something wrong with the fuel pick up, had to run almost a full tank to keep the rail pressure up. Would jump between 14K and 27K if you didn't. Tranny was getting better every pass on Friday night at the test and tune. Last pass was a 11.42 at about 118 and blew the innercooler boot at 1000 feet. Best MPH was 126.98. We never made the show on Sat. I lined up for the first time trial and the torque converter was fried. It was so tight the truck wouldn't rev over 1100 rpm so no boost. Just as well, we blew the same innercooler boost on Max'd Out in the Semi's and had to rob the one off White Out. White Out should be a mid 10 second truck once we get the bugs worked out. All in all I'm very happy with the progress we have made so far.

That would explain the white smoke and loud bang at 3/4 track that had everyone yelling. Got it in this vid.....

Sorry to hear about Whiteout's issues, truck looked like it was getting faster with each pass made at TnT. Woulda been cool to see in Superstreet.
