LBZ: Shane Kellogg sells "Gotta Have It"
- Thread starter MAXX IT OUT
- Start date
Brionn Withrow, is that correct? I cant remember how you say the guys name. He pulls 2.6 in a truck that Danville has done a lot of work to. Dont hold me to it but thats who I heard.
i heard the same...I thought of tim Jackson at first when someone said its staying in ohio and going duramax power but then heard winthrows name hes got a darn good running 2.6 truck trouble maker...anyone know what he did with gainer's old truck?
Dang, there's a name I haven't heard in a few years - Gainer!! He ever gonna get back in the game?!?!
Technically yes since he is going to be doing most of the fab work for Brion's new project for me. Matt has a pro stock tractor that he has been building for the last couple years but should be out soon! Matt's original truck that Brion bought ended up getting put back to completely stock and is rolling around on the street somewhere in Ohio. Brion was in the process of building a mod truck but Shane's new chassis was in front of Brion's at the chassis shop and the timeline got pushed back and so Brion and Shane stuck a deal to buy Shane's rolling chassis and everyone is happy, lol!(well, except for all the Gotta Have It/Cummins fans!) Yes Brion's 2.6 truck has proven to run better than the chassis can handle since to throws something on the ground damn near every pass so we are taking that motor and tweaking a few things and throwing triple turbos on it and seeing how long it will last in the mod truck starting in the 2,000-2,500hp range. Hopefully make it to fall. Buying one of the best proven winning chassis's on the market just seemed like a no brainer to us and hopefully we do a good job of representing the Dmax crowd in this class since it is a Cummins/Haisley dominated one! We are excited about it and should be interesting to see it unfold...
Not yet, he's asking $30k obo for it complete rolling chassis minus motor and clutch. Yes it has an NV4500 in it and 3.42gears. You couldn't even begin to build that chassis for that price. Has the real wheels all the way around with custom aluminum hubs that make the rear wheelbase around 97" dually so it fit in his semi trailer! It's tucked in tight and rear springs are under the frame. Has the RCV billet front cvs and all. They are taking the motor out of it as we speak now.
As far as the whole Shane vs. Dimitri, he is the last person in the world Shane is worried about or concerned with. Just cause you think you can box doesn't mean you should try to get in the ring with M. Ali... Just saying.:thumb:
Racing in the Dirt out of Wisconsin did them. Pretty badass setup to say the least!:thumb:
Nope, Matt Gainer is doing all the fab work on that over there at Brion's shop in the truck. I don't have the room or time to do it right now and he is planning on having it running in a months time, hopefully it will be at BowlingGreen next month!
Thanks, we appreciate that! Hands down has been my favorite truck to watch over the years and Shane did a hell of a job with it. Hope we don't embarrass ourselves with it.
