RANDI GREENE 2004 GMC 75.050


Must have broke something in qualifying.:(

Yup, exploded the front end and DS axle shaft flush with the wheel bearing. They gave us 15min to get back & pull exhibition. TJ & I changed the cv in 6 minutes, Randi was determined to hook & we still had a long ride home with her. We hooked in exhibition & went 157 with a crunching front end, no gear lube AND puffed charger :eek: The tech guy said we couldn't pull with the fluid leaking from the cracked front end but I assured him within 2minutes it would be done.....it was :rofl: Went to Dave Dunbar and asked to dyno even though he was done for the weekend, he let us(amazing how I drink the same rum he likes ;))Thanks Dave (great guy if you ever get the chance to meet him, do it) dyno'd & rolled 528/885 with 26psi boost. Then rolled 196/318 with 3psi. TOAST.
BUT we had a blast :D Met Jeff & Rob, hung Eric Merchant all weekend. Nice meeting everyone & sorry we missed others. We pulled the charger to send it back & save me some shipping $$$ ;) All 26 trucks in the 2,6 class were big chargers bushed down to 2.6. I think we could have gotten in the show but didn't, we'll be there next year to try again Thanks for the offers for help.
Corey Atley's truck is f***ing BADASS as is Try Wakemans truck.

Good to hear you had a good time. Sorry for the bad luck!
BTW you owe me a phone call when you get back and settled.

Yes we were there :D

Was nice meeting you and the few others out there. I am not sure I will go back next year, seems to be strung out to long and was not impressed with vendors and of course hated seeing the track prep workers neglecting the lanes causing all that carnage for many. Eric

I probably should just bring the RV and just hang out instead next year.
