Wow that's close, sound like the tuning did pretty good for you. What kind of 60' times did you get?

Dustin, it ran great! My best 60ft was 1.999 so I was deff leaving some on the table. Next time out I am going to put some factory wheels up front with some 245's cause I didnt realize how heavy my kmc's are. Slicks were deff doing there job I just couldnt find the right tire pressure for my truck,25psi was prob the best.I lowered it down to 22psi but it just wadded them up and broke loose.Jeff was cutting 1.8's all night on them.

Also we had a 20mph head wind, one of my run's was a 13.280 @105;)

had a good time! Larry, sorry I didn't get to talk to you more...i thought you were going to help me out with my cooler :D.

btw, next Test -n- Tune is June 19th. there will be bracket racing between now and then, but no TNT's.

i don't know if anyone paid attention to the flat black Mustang, it's my friend Daniel Pierce's car. it went 10.18 on motor...with a little tweaking, it'll be running 9's on motor. :happy2:

Congrats on your good times wish I could have done something worth while:(
I am having a new piece made right now for the turbo outlet to intercooler pipe because I am tired of the damn hose blowing off when I am making a good run:mad: I never did get my wheels and as far as I am concerned I will not do any business with Mickey Thompson again. They left me high and dry and wouldn not even work with me to get them here air freight. Live and learn I guess. Anyway, we had a huge turn out and hopefully they will do this again soon. I understand what everyone was saying about removing some power but until I can actually get some decent traction whats the point. I even ran the tow tune first to warm up things and still spun all four. I guess thats why they call it test and tune.

Matt said you were getting it. I'll ask to make sure.
yeah, when you were down the track, that truck made the most noise of them all...kinda a loud clacking noise. it was more noticeable than exhaust and turbo whistle. :rofl:

What did the stroker run?

What about the Dodge that was supposed to be racing someone from here? Did he show or not? What did he run?
