Competition Ready? 10.52 @131+, guess who

[Rhondasway]

Sorry I didn't respond to you gentlemen sooner, I was off-line.

I was out of line to say that Fletcher wouldn't be running DHRA; it's not for me to say. He'd probably enjoy any opportunity to beat any really fast cars or trucks... Eric, is it true that the driveline loop design for DHRA differs from NHRA?

Geoff, those events do get pretty busy. I'm sure we'll meet at some point this summer. BTW, if you don't have all your races lined up, be sure to give Bremerton a call. They love us down there, and the track is fast with a friendly staff. Their people were at Pacific Raceway helping out last weekend, and asked me if I'd be racing there this year because they like what I'm doing.

Geoff Thomas

Division 6 DHRA Director

So... ... ... ... ... . What exactly are you saying here? You are the director of Division 6 DHRA and if I understand correctly it sounds like you are offering to tag team Fletchers truck??????? What is up with that? A guy makes a few killer runs and now you make sound as though you are out to get him???????

This really makes me want to be part of the DHRA in a big way NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No HOSS all he is saying is that he could use some help with tech, and if Fletchers truck is there then it certainly would have to go through a tech inspection. No dirty tricks just the same "by the book" treatment that everyone else would get.

 

[JDailey]

Well it is BS to let one racer or puller tech another's truck. If that's case they can kiss my ass.

 

[gtspowerstroke]

Woah Woah Woah here! Now let's hold on here for just a sec. I was in no way implying that I was going to or wanting to try to team up against anyone. I was just commenting on what Maddog said about it possibly not passing and that I'm a greenhorn here and haven't really done it before so I am going to need all the help I can get from anyone with experience weather it be another racer or another division director. Maddog is a director himslef last I checked and the directors are allowed to race as well so I guess in a sense other racers will be allowed to tech trucks. I in no way want to gang up or try to penalize anyone because they are fast. I welcome anyone who wants to come and will tech everyone equally. I encourage and invite some fast trucks includeing Fletcher to show up. All it will do is help the sport out.



Rhonda, I have the schedule all done up. Bremerton is on Sept. 25th. We don't have a race at pacific raceway because they weren't being very cooperative in trying to schedule a race and wouldn't answer the phone or return messages. I have races scheduled at Woodurn, OR on Aug. 7th, Spokane, WA on June 20th and Action, MT on July 18th.

 

[JDailey]

My point is not everyone has a store bought truck or motor. Some people actually do build there own trucks and make there own parts and invest alot of time and money to make big power. And I'm not gonna let someone competing against me see what I've got and show up the next week or whenever with the same stuff!

So who techs the directors truck?

 

[Sled Puller]

I think nice thing about DHRA is the people running it are competing in it. Instead of some aloof bean counter.



We are all on the same team. JDailey and any other puller is welcome to look at anything on my truck at anytime. Its the only way the paranoid will feel "safe".

Yeah, the next thing you know the PSD guys will be ditching their motors and running our Cummins so they can go faster. Oh wait, that's already happened.

 

[JDailey]

I'm not paranoid there Mr. director. But I'm not the only who feels this way. Try it at muncie and see how many people don't go through tech!

 

[Sled Puller]

Well gosh, maybe thats why there is non pulling tech guys at Muncie?



Anything else?





Hey Joe, when you get within 50 feet of Scheids truck, then maybe you will have something worth looking at!!LMAO!

 

[Sled Puller]

Lets try to keep the Diesel pullers a step above the crybaby dragracers, and the gasser pullers.

 

[JDailey]

That's a great idea Gene. But maybe we shouldn't have dragracers sanctioning pulls??

 

[Sled Puller]

Well, we keep him at a safe distance.

 

[Sled Puller]

It didn't take long for a dragracer to steal a pulling engine, though, did it?

 

[JDailey]

You got that right!

 

[CumminFast]

Hey maddog... you forget there was a race this weekend? Flat tire? or what?

No, tires are fine. The truck is not back on the road yet, new motor, new turbos, but it's real close.

I am sorry I missed this race cause it would have been some easy money considering the competition. See you at Muncie.

 

[Turbo Thom]

Ya know, Richard. That could be true. A 11. 43 did win it. We got some changes to do too.





Gene... Now you really got me confused. Crybaby drag racers? Whats happened now . I missed it. I thought we all were adults here. "crybaby"?
