Congrats Tony.

At the end of the 2.8 1st place video, is it an optical illusion from the rims or is the engine still pulling hard and the wheels not spinning? Probably just my eyes playing games with me.

If you watch the wheels, it's hard to tell that they are still spinning at the end but if you look at the tires, you'll notice that dirt is flying back from the tires indicating they are spinning at a high rate of speed. :D


Nice hooks Tony. Not be a smart ass, but what more do you have done than Tomac to put more than 20ft on him??? You all used to be much closer and I know you rebuilt both engines. DId yours get something *that* much different???

i aint a puller, but i heard these guys bump it into neautral at the end of the run to keep the trans (fully locked) from boggin down the motor and killing it.......

edit: smokeshows answer appears to be the right one in this case though......

That's what I figured. Resolution on my laptop kinda sucks.

The difference in the motor is that i have a special cut cam from guy at socal and a little lower compression.

Nice hooks Tony, you still running an off the shelf A5K or does it have some modifications? How you liking the STS's this year? Also you still running the 4.10's with the 33's? If so how you liking it ?
Sorry for all the questions, I am hoping to be running the same suspension and setup as you hear pretty soon.

I think it's youtube. Vids quality isn't always so great on there...


Ah, a different cam eh? That's quite the different animal then cause you are simply dominating! Congrats and keep it up!
