Don't drive it till it breaks. It will cost more money.

I've not dealt with motor sports sponsors, myself, but I have dealt with sponsors at a pro-am snowboarder level, and my oldest daughter has numerous sponsors for her MX pursuits. And I can say this, Sponsors are great, BUT, theres more to having a sponsorship than wearimg a name...you sell yourself to them! And I mean that in many ways. You have to compete when and where they want, dress how they want, speak to who they want you to and take pictures whenever they want...and most times there's performance clauses in contracts that stipulate if you don't meet the requirements of the contract, any and all costs that were incurred as part of the contract will be repaid by you or through the endorsements of your contract, and sometimes those requirements can be as insignificant as wearing the proper gear in public at an event

Having a sponsorship isn't a "free ride" at all, it's a commitment, it takes effort to attain them and its work to keep them and if you're not approaching having a sponsorship with the attitude of "work" and that THEY DONT OWE YOU and you're nothing to a big name, you won't get far:hug:

I feel you on the trans stuff. I broke the one on white devil (that was already screwed up) pretty much immediately after getting the truck running right. Took another $5500 to get it to where it is now.

That is also why the truck has only made a handful of passes and rarely sees a tune over 600hp, Shit just keeps breaking.

At your power level Katie you will be lucky to get many full throttle passes before something breaks or the trans needs refreshed.

Yeah lol Nick told me the trans felt week when I picked it up, I thought it would be fine but nope lol. Of course the ol bitch has to act up and of course my dsp5 switch isn't working so I have to run it in on he max tune hahaha. Who ever said 1000hp trucks were fun never owned one . I wash it more than I drive it.

Just cause it's on the hot tune don't mean you have to man the pedal. I can drive my hot tune or daily tune and not notice a huge difference.

My trans did the same thing. Lol. Forums make people think high HP rigs can be reliable. Lol.

That's a shame. Mine is my daily driver, wife drives the stock truck.

They are fun, but pretty pointless. Can't use the power on the street, pretty much ever, plus always worried about breaking something.

I've been rather fortunate. I haven't broken a single thing on this truck.

New 175% injectors may change that. We'll find out.

The internet and people lying about the failures they have make it hard to explain to some customers that even though they spent a ton of money on all the best parts that the truck can and will still break.
