Competition A video of my second pull.

[JBrookshire]

This is my second hook with my truck, Just thought I would post it to see what u all thought. The track was loose and the sled sucked, other than that the truck ran good. I ended up with a 2nd. But there is more pulles around with better tracks and sleds, I will get more vids. Justin

Why did you end so abruptly when you were still moving a bit?. . and they rev the crap out of the motor?

I've never pulled so I may be wrong, but it sounded like you might have been in too high of a gear!?

I was also wondering why guys when they are at the end of the pull and at a complete stop that they start throttle prodding... . ?? just revving for the hell of it?

You start "throttle prodding" to avoid barking the turbo. I do the same thing.

Nice looking hook, sounds like you need 1 gear lower, what is your estimated HP?

thats a cool video Bobcat698 I was standing about 25ft to the right of the camera man/woman.

Now if I would put the truck in netrual and got off the throttle not super quick if would not do the same thing?

THanks...

I am a rookie so all the input helps. I was in low side fourth gear. The first time I pulled I was in fourth low to and had lost of speed and pulled 334 ft and beat some good local trucks. How do u decide witch gear to pull in??? I am rite at 500 hp dynoed. That is with 191 dvs and a #6 plate. I am wanting to get a 4gsk kit rite now I have a 3gsk kit . What bombs whould u recemend next??? I thought about a #0 plate and lz cut dv's. What would uall recremend?? I am planning on pulling it this week end so let me know before then and I can try these out?? Thanks on the questions and hope I get some good advise. Thanks Justin

I also have 4:10 gears

When I did my 4K gsk, my egt's got alot higher loaded and unloaded. You might want to think about a water/meth. kit.
