Wow, glad to hear that you are okay Sal. That must have been quite the shocker! I remember when I had a battery explode in one of my vehicles as I went to start it, that being nerve racking, but nothing compared to flames licking up the windshield!!

We have the technology. We can rebuild it. Better. Faster.

...with you still here!

Dan

 

Glad you got outta there okay Sal. We know you've probably started drawing up new plans for a bigger and badder truck and we're all anxiously awaiting to hear about them!

Hope everything goes well and my apologies on your misfortune

 

You walked away and in the end, that is all that matters.

Things like this show the reality of the danger that lurks when pushing the envelope.

I say screw the extinguisher and go straight to onboard halon. It may add some weight but you will survive and so will the next truck.

So was it nitros puddling that occured in the lower intake that caused the backfire? We were discussing this same thing this weekend. Time for direct port brother and get back on top!

Take care Sal.

 

Glad to here that you are ok Sal. Best wishes for a 'speedy rebuild'.

Jake...

 

Sorry to hear about the truck Sal but I'm glad you are ok. I don't know what I would do without your sage advice. Your also just an enjoyable man to know. If you need anything from me as far as sheet metal parts I could build to get the truck back together....consider it done.

Jerry

 

Hey Sal,

Sorry to hear about your misfortune, Glad you are OK. You'll have it back together soon.

Mark hit the wall last year at Columbus and messed his truck up.

Are you running the newer type prototype Works blower?

 

Sal,
Glad you made it out ok!! You have been a great source of help to me over the years and I appreciate it. Sorry that your truck got messed up but I know you will come back even faster than before!! BTW – that is one BADA$$ picture!!!

 

Sal--

So sorry to hear about what happened to you and the truck...I'm glad you are ok and still here to tell us about it, thats all that really matters!!!! The truck will come back soon and that can be fixed!!!!

Good luck in your recovery and hope to see you out again soon!!!


Jeff

 

Wow! Sorry to hear about your truck Sal, but very happy to hear you walked away from it safe and sound.

.....Dave

 

Like I told you yesterday, I was horrified when you told me about this... I had a 9sec mustang pull a fire show on me once, I know what that fire on the windsheild is like!

Im glad you were able to get away safe and sound... the truck can be replaced, and will be replaced Like everyone said, time to build bigger and badder...

if you need "anything", dont hesitate to ask.

Shane

 

Thanks for all the support guys, it is much appreciated. The truck is not as bad as it sounds, it just needs some parts replaced. I hope to have it done by WFC, but that depends on what's really damaged when I rip it apart.

To answer the question being asked, I was not spraying through the blower, I had direct port spray bars in the lower intake that shot directly into the intake ports.

 

Sal,

Sorry to hear about the damage, but glad to see that you are alright.

Jerrod

 

Sal, glad your all right and sorry to hear about L. Just wandering what kind of 60' do you get with a sick launch like that?
Ed

 

Sal I just got back from Texas and this is the first thing I saw. I am glad you are OK and I am sure you will be back in action real soon.

Like everyone else said the most important thing is your OK, the truck can allways be fixed.

Now does anyone have a video of the run??

 

Im glad to here you that you where not damaged! the truck can always be fixed! I to have new wallpaper that pic is KICK A$$!
Again sal glad your ok!
