first hook

[bonescarolfi]

I put my truck in the pull in Dorchester, WI today. I thought I did pretty good for my first time. 251 feet and I should have gone full throttle sooner. Truck ran nice and smooth though. Ill post a video as soon as I get home.

nice pull

I pulled again in mackville, wi today and got 290. The track was way too loose and I had very little traction. I was running at 4000 rpms. I should have tried grabbing 4th but didn't think fast enough. The guy that won has 50 to 100 less rwhp than me but weighed 1100 lbs more (I was only at 7000) and he pulled 377 running at about 3200 to 3300.

Heres an old video of the guy that won today. I dont think they have todays up yet. Theres not much done to this truck. He has the suspension set up really good and has wights hiding in the cab and front of the box.

Sorry to hear you were breaking stuff. On Sunday they wouldn't put hardly any water on the track and parts of it were getting extremely hard and smooth, thats where i lost traction. We asked them to do something about it before we pulled but they wouldn't.

No both pulls i went to were kinda open to everything. Dorchester had everything from garret shields pro mod truck to a bone stock ford all in the same class hooking to the same sled setup. Mackville was supposed to be street stock and all of the trucks had stock turbos except for a twin turbo dodge(lost due to a rear end failure). My truck would fall into a 2.5/2.6 class, I still have a stock turbo but fuel is pretty much maxed out for the stock cp3 with a lift pump. She runs at 3100 us with rail pressure only dropping to about 21000-22,000 psi, 32 degrees timing, 32-33 lbs of boost and 1700-1800 egt. If everything goes as planned she won't smoke so much next spring.
