I'm thinking of pulling in the St Charles County fair's stock class truck pull on Thursday, and I read Todds tips to blackdirtymax on pulling:
Any different tips for my "stock" single turbo truck? 4th gear instead of third?
Sounds like the best approach would be stand on the brakes & Build boost, let off the brakes a little to start rolling then let 'er eat?
If I pull, I'd definatley log the pull(s). What would be the best Engine & Transmission PIDs to log?
I'm not expecting to break any records or win, since my truck isn't really set up for pulling... Makes decent power, but I'll be running on Bridgestone Dueller Revo2's with like 30% tread left so I'm not expecting to 'stick' all that well. Just interested in giving it a try (for now ).
The only hangup could be the hitch... I don't have a pulling hitch, and I'd assume they don't have any that can be used. Don't suppose anyone local to me has one I might be able to use?''
Edit: Would this or this hitch work? Only thing on them I'm not sure of is the ID of the D-Ring... Needs to be minimum 3".
3rd gear, 4 lo
build some boost, stand on the brakes
soft track roll it out a little
tight track, drive it like a drag race.
not sure if you can pull 4th with twins or not.
What to expect: Get ready to drop serious coin :roflmao:
