Is anyone going to meet for breakfast at Bradshaws restaurant like we always used to???????



I'll be there, but since my truck is minus the Comp right now, I won't be racing, just watching and drooling. I'll be riding my Harley this time.

Street is much smaller and just for a trophy. Sportsman is bigger and you can win $$$.

What time would you want to meet for breakfast?

 

[rockjeep73]

Hey Paul, as of now the weather is good from now through next week. I will let you know what it's like Friday.

Friday night, 7pm, not a cloud in the sky!

I have been looking over the website for the race and it seems like I could be making multiple runs. With the RAD I am worried about the input and output shafts. Is it possible to make just one run for a time ticket or should I wait until the Wed. night things start back up to run it then? I am just worried I would break something, while funds are there, the time is available to have the truck down :{ What do you think??

 

[rockjeep73]

Yes you could make one run. I would just go out there and see what it does.

Well. . good and bad day today, we ran our personal best 12. 10@112. 9 mph for 2 runs, and snapped an output shaft the last time trial run of the day. Talk about Kaboom. . wow. . hopefully we'll get the new shaft in by the end of the week for the dyno day. . hopefully Suncoast keeps their promise on warrantying billet parts eh> There's gonna be some video's up on DTR soon. . maybe someone will post a link.

 

[rockjeep73]

I also ran a personal best of 13. 34 @ 99. 5, not too bad for an old 1st gen.



heres a couple pics of my truck for now

as soon as videos and pics come on DTR and Diesel Garage I will post links.

It was a fun day, my first time drag racing and had a 15. 8 on a bad injector pump and a 0 psi fuel pump but the RASP will be here thursday and the injector pump is sitting in the shop brand new from II. I got to looking though and my reaction times were . 668 and . 66, what is the key to the quick reaction times, never raced until sunday (my birthday so I got the day off ) just need some tips for racing it once I get the new pumps on and hopefully a phat shaft 62 soon. Thanks guys and it was great meeting yall up there

 

[rockjeep73]
