So who else plans to run their truck this spring? Any recent mods?

My truck will be ready in less than an hour with 4.11 gears installed I can't wait to get them broke in and drive her hard. In addition to this I have ordered wedges to help with pinion alighnment and QA1 dual adjustable shocks for the rear. Hoping that with these and the traction bars I can put down some real numbers this year. Also up'd my shift points to 5400 1-2 and 5300 2-3 and the new tune will be allowing more power through the tranny. Trying to catch FatherFord is no easy task lol.

 

I'm planning on getting some track time on the new drag radials...





plus I can't wait to use the transbrake

 

Well here I race in the winter as summer is to warm. I missed my chance but just lowered my truck, did 10 psi Troyer tune and did new coils hope to have new rims and tires by next winter

 

I plan on making an attempt to hit or break an 11.50 This spring.
I added 2PSI and a full 3" dual exhaust since my last dyno run.
Oh and I just bought some Bogart front drag wheels too.

I need a new race tune and I'm ready to make a run.

April 22nd is the first day around here.

Was hoping my torque converter would be here by now, but I guess I still have some time...

Just did open track nights last summer/fall, planning on doing amateur brackets once a week this year.

 

I see you live near Findley. Do you go to 42?

 

Marion County/Larue and Summit/Norwalk.

Use to live closer to Norwalk, but think am going to head there on Wednesday nights.

Am a bit older, just hope I haven't forgot how...

Got a club day invite to 42 last fall but had "family" stuff going on that weekend.

 

I am still fixing my rear diff. Any track plans are on hold. I do want to see what an extra 3 psi and more aggressive shifting would do.

 

Bust another rear axle lmao!

 

Don't give that age issue a second thought. Hell I will be 60 this week and I can still bang gears with the best of them. Norwalk was my track of choice between 2001-2004 when I had the Lightning and Cobra. Went 11:22 @ 121mph in the Cobra the first time I went there. Not bad for an old guy with a 6 speed

 

You are the man! Look at Mark Martin too.

 

i will be hitting the track the next two weekends....i just got my long tube headers installed, an air force one intake and should be getting my new xcal tune with custom tune from amazon tuneing solutions next week....so during the weekend i will be removing my hitch, my spare and my tailgate to have it ready for the 9th....i am hoping to break a mid to low 15's in the 1/4 mile....wish me luck

 

Hit the track yesterday...ran a 14.5 first run on 5lbs boost...i have a leak somewhere. Need to get that fixed then figure out what parts I need to reach 10-12 boost.

 

I really hope to go to the track next winter on some better tires. I'd love a 13.5 on street tires

 

Pass time is coming to No Problem race track, hoping to have my motor in truck and running for this event! May 14,15,16.
