nick said something weas worng with the TC over on comp D


im sure the 3.54 gears arent hellping pat :rofl:

If Nick's could only make 800rpm standing still, he could not get the truck up on the scale.

He could not spool in the thin air, but 800? Nope.

His convertor was most likely fine. He just needed to work on his tuning.

All of the guys with big charger have had to deal with what Nick ran into. But in the past Nick always had his bottle to help him spool. Guess he will have to learn #2 Only tuning.

Casper runs 3.42's.

But...

If I were Tom Colesanti, or the other Pro 3.0 crew, I'd be a little pissed a Nick:

"My truck couldn't even run past 800rpm and I put 50-100 feet on you beetches!!!! Just wait until it runs right!!!"

Fact is, Nick's truck did get up on the charger, and it did put 50' on Colesanti. That's pretty good. The fact that it couldn't catch an LLY Street Truck? Dunno what to say.

Better luck next time? ;)

yes with on exceptiong lawrence ran a ligther sled.

tony (cclb dmax dually)pulled the same sled wieght and went just as far then came back aroung and pulled again on a heavier sled then i pulled at the re-adjusted sled and 2' behind him

pat.. toms truck is setup up for tight sticky clay tracks.. IMO exact oppostise of what it need to be setup for out here... IMO he should put boggers front and rear on that beast

oops about the gears :eek:

Pat, where is your excuses list as to why my truck didn't win...........:rofl:

That is not going to easy for team TTS, they live and die by the bottle, perhaps Nick needs Troy Wakeman's tune, it appears he is doing well in MO, for now.

does casper still have stock injectors?

HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEEEEEEEE

Here's a picture of the 3.000" reducer:

3.229 will not press into a 3.231 hole.... There is .002 clearance as you have it written.

Don't worry, I know what you meant, and I too am dyslexic most of the time.:screwy:

Your machining set up looked ok, until I seen the part hosed clamped to a couple pieces of scrap steel. :eek:

Yup, 0.002 crush, got it backwards. :D

I was a machinist for 20 years, tool & die, prototype, jigbore, etc. It really sucks using a piece o' crappola to git 'er done, but what the heck! ;)
