Yup, that was the "BACK to BACK MUNCIE PULLIN CHAMPION" back at Muncie in 2001, BEFORE he went to EE.

worse yet, he had that "gem" of a clutch installed at EEP!!!

No Russel, the Centerforce actually lived for an entire season, this was the Centerforce replacement, season #2.



EEP installed what Briar, Steve, and I brought to them, against their better judgement... they warned us,!!

You should have seen their face when I told them that this clutch was holding 650 hp on the west coast, and hooks even better after it slips.

Yes, a fool and his money were soon parted.



Although I hear that same style clutch is holding 800 hp now. Sounds fishy to me.



Oh well, I hope a lot of people learned from my mistake. Thats what a club is all about, helping each other learn.

gag me with a spoon

 

[Sled Puller]

Gag?

What clutch are you running, rookie????

Should have let you spend $2000 on clutches that didn't work FIRST, then tell you what you should have bought!!

No respect.....

 

[R.E. Miller]

WOW, I need to listen to sled more. If I had learned from all (heck..... just any of my mistakes) I would have easily flown right through the doctoral studies of engineering at Oxford in a week or two LMAO Gene, I know how it feels, thanks for the lessons free of charge!

I will say I have learned a lot from you and Rob and others. But you got to quit it, Gene, your sounding like a boyscout. And your only doing that so you can butter me up for a discount from Rob. Be careful here, I knocked Rob off the Rookie chair at EEP, I can knock you off your throne too. :-laf :-laf

 

[Sled Puller]

Hmmmm... but Rob still pulls like a rookie, so now what?

 

[jtisdale]

Good point

I guess we're back to square one...

 

[csutton7]

guess I need to come back there and teach a pulling school and a how to course of building your sled pull truck the right way--only trucks with campershells and ladder racks need apply--..... chris

Acctually, I enjoy being a rookie... ... ... ... It's much simpler, I'm not expected to do well. Maybe one day, when I quit being stubborn and loose the 315's, I'll up the antie.





(Pssst... Gene------ doesn't Chris have a slushbox?) LOL JK





I for one appreciate Gene's parts "testing", keeps me from wasting my money on things that don't work. I wish he'd test a front locker soon, I'll be needing one.

Rob--slush box indeed---a threat to many a left foot pedal pusher---



I've been using the ARB front locker for 3. 5 years now for your info---chris
