Ok Greg so let me get this correct, according to the link you ran a best ET of 8.508 @ 161.05 and another pass with best MPH of 164. 81 @ 8.749? Now I need date/s these happened, tranny type, engine (LBZ?) vehicle weight with driver and who tuned it. You get that that and I'll put you on the list. It would put you on as number 6 right after the NX Dragster and just before Dirty Max. Post up that info and I'll add your car to the list.

Is this thing even remotely Duramax??? From what I gather the only thing left common to a Duramax is the injectors and fuel pumps. Why should it even be allowed on the list?

real racers are not worried about taking videos , We race .

I know I'm not at your level, but I find videos help me dial in many things; How the rig hits the tire, fueling (lack of or over fueling), and chassis set-up to name a few.

I'm not sure I've ever heard of a "pro" team that doesn't have a crew member taking video. Videos also are great tools for marketing for sponsors, unless that is, if they show negative aspects of how the "program" was pitched to the sponsors. Then I understand not wanting any videos.

Even in my lowly race "program" I have a team member videoing each pass one of my rigs make. This is beneficial to my sponsors and myself each and every pass.

I put the sled puller with slicks on the trailer because it will never hit a pro tree. What good is a wind up toy that while fast can't win when it mattered

Here is the Video of that race. The 6 second Power Service Dragster entered a 8.50 index race. Without a delay box, he rolled the beams and sat there counting until he guessed, watch about the 54 second mark. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WAUvUAxkPa8&list=FLN21OsiA51oUiAoVOlSqwWw

Again, videos show a lot.

Not impressed to say the least!

So we are supposed to give a shit about a railcar that goes 8.50@161mph??? Wtf are you smoking Greg??? Brett's truck is a street truck with A/C and runs fuel only. Not even turned up all the way he's almost as fast as you with a 4600lb truck and according to the calculator makes more than twice the hp you do. If we put his motor in a car like yours it wouldn't even be close, lol! What a joke you are sir!

There are so many more deserving people who should be the "faces of diesel motorsports" than Hogue.
I just do not understand how businesses cannot see thru his BS when its so damn obvious.

I think what Rob, Russ, Mark or Brett (among many others) could do with money and parts donations like that and I shake my head in astonishment that the wrong people get that support.

(BTW, my truck registered 701fwhp on the Dragtimes calc on the 12.14 run with stock turbo -- now THATS funny! :hehe:)

If you take Brett's power from the calculator and use your weight it would go 6.84! You are a long way off the mark Greg! Come back when you actually go fast!
