Smarty Rocks!!

[jwilliams3]

Well tonight I had a couple more tricks to throw at the sled out in Gaston, Indiana.



I was running behind all day as usual and got up to the pull and had not even so much as plugged the SMARTY in.

Well, I did, then I loaded in #9.



I noticed right away it had very aggressive low end fueling. I was just wondering what it would do up top.



I signed up for the ProStreet Diesel 8500lb class and then..... (I'll let you guys decided how it did) :-laf

Congratulations! Nice pull, Smarty is great @ WOT.

 

[CJ8Rockcrawler]

Nice pull... . but were those sparks coming from the bottom-front of your truck when you took off?

 

[AMassaro]

I was just gonna ask you the same question... . ? Your Cummins was spitting sparks.....



That was awesome... . hope nothing is wrong, though... Never saw that happen before... :--)

 

[lmills]

Sparks were from the clutch

 

[SLangegger]

Im pretty sure thats just Mr. Williams "polishing" the faces of his clutch a little. :-laf

 

[JStieger]

Justin-



What settings were your TS and/or TST on?

 

[mattymac]

Justin, you finally got smart! I would have loved to see the camera on the other side of the truck though! You can really tell with the low end fueling, especially when you came to a stop and your turbo was chuffing while still on the pedal! Have fun with the smarty! I know I have!

So any impressions on the RPM on this run? I think SMARTY should fuel tilll 3500 still pretty strong...



BTW - KevinO just got one last night - level 6 was awesome, level 9 was stupid -- like 12v w/ 0 plate

 

[Bob Wagner]

Congratulation Justin we have more in store

 

[thealaskan]

Guys thanks for the kind words..... THANKS MARCO!! (And BOB!)



To answer the questions:

As it has already been seen said... yeah those are sparks(just part of the deal). You got to slip it to light it up correctly and have a smooth launch.



Julius,

The TST was just there for moral support and gauging things. The TS was turned on to about 20% if that. Basically just for some rail fooling.



Mac, Yeah I wish I had a closer camera angle without the screaming (I have got onto them about the screaming but the alcohol takes over at some point and the camera people cant be reasoned with :-laf )



Tom,

The rpm's are still ending at the same point in the 35-37 area but there could be more fuel up to that point but I dont know for sure since I am too busy driving on the track then to watch the gauges.

I only watch the rpm's when I ramp it up on the line.



thealaskan,

Yeah it does take a whole bunch of dedication to have a decent running pulling truck...

The truck was down all week and I was literally wrenching on it right before I had to leave, and then hopped in it and drove up to the pull



Mark(smoke),

Please stop PM'ing me about autographs and t shirts... . I'll have them shipped out to you soon enough :-laf

C'mon Justin can't you come up with something better than stealing a bad Scott Vorhee's (BBD) / Sleddy joke?! :-laf

I guess I get an F for effort! :-laf

Wow - and thats with no TST! geez, I cant wait till you hook with the tst on like 5x5...

Sure was funny though. :-laf

I can say one thing the throttle on #6 and especially on #8 is crazy sensitive. For daily driving i think i will use a lower setting and turn the TST up when needed. I tried #6 smarty with 4/1 TST and level 1 EZ last night for a little fun with a dakota r/t leaving the car cruise spot last night. I think he may have turned his head lights off or it may have been the low level cloud from the stacks that made him dissapear :-laf
