I guess I need to get a motor built for this then.
Hey now.... What is that I see peeking out in the right hand side of that snapshot?????? SWEEEETTTTT :happy2:
Fastest CR in the country running ( ?.?? ) ? It's not in your sig. Sorry I wasn't there either. How well did your Common Rail compare to the other diesel powered ? in your class?
Oh and I had the fastest STATION WAGON in my high school. 3000 plus students. Uh oh.... I had the only one so it was easy...
How well would that tube truck of yours do with 3000 pounds extra weight? I'm sure lots would break, 1200lbs/ft even at 5000rpm is a monster. Just wondering.
You talking about the orange car. If so it is a 68 camaro. I will get some pics of it as well.
You guys really have the best missinterpreting skills of anyone i've ever talked with, the ultimate at twisting the truth to suite your needs...Right on the verge of slander.....
I dont care to change to way you think of me, just the way you talk to me, it's sad really.
I have no issue's with anyone, but you guys have issue's with me...cant you just read the post shrug your shoulders and move on? I cant believe that a race car could cause this much trouble, jeff started this whole mess, not me i was haveing a good conversation about the audi R18, and he got jelous i guess...not sure, dont care, i love this sport, you guys should to, tearing it up from the inside out is what will destroy it, just like the import scene.
This is beyond friendly banter, that i can accept. but the slander and defamation is wrong. All of you know it.

Oh shuks Wade, don't take my post like that. I was only askin'.
No question dodging and you got a deal.
I would like to see if that sweet aluminum rodded motor would hold up to 1/4 mile and a 6000lb truck......
but unfortunately we shall never know.
I hate to say it but when it comes to these motors, 1/8 mile and tube frames are quite the special olympics of the diesel world. Its cool, its different,but....
Can't tow, pull, or haul more then 1 person.
Sure you can win, but whos it impress?
Not trying to slander, but the saying put or shut up always applies. :thumb:

Wade I made a mini New Year's Resolution that I wouldn't pick on your narcissistic ass so much but man you come across in a way that just defies explanation most of the time. Instead of just stating what you believe you have to come back and belittle people who ask legitimate questions. Take the advise people on these forums are giving you. Do not make statements that are BS, stick to what you really know, get your truck running and let it speak for you. Drop the smoke and mirrors crap because there are people on here that know just as much and some a hell of a lot more about diesel performance as you do. Don't over state your accomplishments in the diesel performance world because there really isn't that much to date.
As I said earlier, come on out to Phoenix in March and show us what you got.
Well why cant you come and race with us normal ppl and have fun just like we do no matter if you have a 8 sec truck or a 15 sec truck instead of talking about how much more you know then we do and how bad your shit is.
Hell I bet if most ppl on this website had the $$$$$$ they would have some bad ass trucks as well but I say most is limited to the $$$$$ like me keeping me from upgrading and getting stronger.
You can ask anyone here that I have meet at a event i love looking at there trucks seeing what all they have done different and everyone I have talked to from this forum as helped me and learned me some ways and some has give me really good ideas and Jeff has helped me just as much as anybody on here, Im glad to be able to call Jeff my friend and to be able to ask him any kind of dmax question and he will give me a honest answer on how to make my truck stronger and really give me the best bang for my buck and to me that is worth alot to have ppl like him on this forum
And I remember one thread I read were you posted and you just come off as a asshole instead of helping out somebody who may not have experience or the tools to do it, you make them out to be a fool and that just aint right
Isn't this a quarter mile track http://www.mirdrag.com/ in the state where he lives? Not that I care just see that running a quarter mile track verses a eighth mile seems to be a issue.
What am I missing?
What am I missing?
I could be speculating here but I think he has been running 1/8 because he doesn't have the gearing required to run out a 1/4 mile run , I think he is running a Non Bruno Lenco , and I am not aware of a separate OD unit in it either .
Wade is a classic poser. He wants sooo bad to be considered a "big player" in this "sport".(whatever that means, its a few people racing diesels, not the NHRA)
Like most posers, he is a pretty good bs'er and can get quite a few people to believe his crap. People like Wade love the internet, because they can control(for the most part) what they want people to see about them.
The problem starts for him when people who actually have a good handle on things, call him out, and make him look stupid.
I've known a few people like him over the years on these sites: He's a phone jockey. He calls and talks to all the people "in the know" People like Guy Tripp, Cole, big manufacturers, etc. to get info. He passes their knowledge off as his own. He also relentlessly calls about sponsorships because he doesn't make enough money to pay for the toys that he wants for his truck. He also probably spends entirely too much of his personal income on this truck. All to show people how great he is, and how much he knows.

He's running 7,000 rpm I thought? That easily good for 180mph with a 1:1 trans. In any case, I passed a buck-seventy-five with the Allison and G80 axle and wasn't topped out yet. 3:42's is your buddy.
About the Phone-Expert-In-Waiting. Yeah, Wade yak'd my ear off for a few hours when he was getting started. Just like anyone who calls, I told him what I knew about the areas he wanted. At the end, he asked me for a free engine. I stopped taking his calls after that.
Later I heard he did that to a number of folk. To be honest, I don't see that as being much different than holding up a sign at a street corner with your hand out. Not that there's anything wrong with that ...
Gotta admit, it's working for him.
Regardless of all the people that keep knocking you and others like Steve Cole that are actually doing stuff , Im sure there are still alot of people like me that dont jump on the bandwagon just to bash paople and are interested in things you are doing. So keep perservering. All the best :thumb:
