First of most you all know that Dmitri, (I prefer to call him shit stick
) and I have had our differences. But, kudo's where kudo's are do. He drove it there, had so many damn bugs on it Friday night it looked more brown then red.
He got it out off the line great. Hooked well and flat boogied.:thumb: Ran acouple of lower 10's and the 9.994 in the first round of eliminations. The track manager met him at the shack where they hand out the time slips and gave him a warning. He kind of peddled it after that running in the 10.4 to 10.6 range and won the Super Street class. There were some good truck in that class, one really wanting to set a new record but couldn't get it done. Dmitri and two or three of the prostreet trucks where the only ones to get into the 9's. I don't think the truck currently weighs what Dmitri gave me for a weight when I posted it. We didn't weigh it but I guess it's in the mid 6000's some place. He will end up adding a little weight to get legal to run 9's but probably not too much. That is the absolute best I've ever seen an Allison perform with serious power, period. The truck sounds good, gone is all that ratty timing sound that it use to have and cleans up very well. I didn't ask him how much NOS he was running but just before is 9.99 run they repreped the track and were yelling at him to get his ass in gear and get to the line. He was in the bed messing with the NOS bottle.
As any of you can imagine, you could hardly peal him off the roof of his truck when he got his time slip. Congrats Dmitri for having a true 9 sec daily driver.
