Jim did any of those 10's get run on Magnum Powers blower without Spray?
Actually, I don't think ANY of Jim's 10 second trucks have had to resort to "spraying". Just good ol' fashioned horsepower.

Thanks guys. I just got home. You have no idea how happy I am.
The Fastest Stock Long Block Truck, AND IT STILL RUNS!!!!!!!!!!! I didn't weigh the truck today, but judging by my 4,992LB weight at E-town I am guessing it weight in at right about 4,900LBs because of the Bogarts. Not sure exactly how much weight you save, but I would say 100LBs is close to it. -Mat-

Matt...your the man bud! You set a goal of going fast on a stock block, then being the fastest stock block.....you got it! I was impressed that my bud has a Z28 going 10.90's on a stock block...but to me it is so much more cooler that you have a 4900 lb truck going damn near that fast on a stock block! (Its a twin turbo Z28...he's got a lot more coin invested too!)

Congrats!

It sounds like you all had a great time and I wish I could have been there with you. Team JDM had a great Day.

with just a 2lb lower, I know he first pass was a 12.0. Congrats Fred! Looks like that new tune works real good.



Jim@JDM
I had some traction issues with the new tires and the track going away. It's less than four hundreths from an eleven!
I don't think there is a twelve second Lightning out there that's going 113+mph. We are making GREAT power as a result of that Dyno-Tune. It's hard to believe we got all this from a two pound pulley. Great tune up. Thanks.

Congrats Fred.

BTW, BTJ's previous best was 12.01@ 114.99mph.

Throw a 1lb upper on that Eaton and your there for sure.

Correction:

Currently, I don't think there is a twelve second Lightning out there that's going 113+mph.

thanks mike

The one pound upper would be cheating and remember:"When you go up against 'Fast Freddy'...You go down in a ball of flames.

Too funny Fred!!!! Keep up the good work...We need to hit Atco before the end of the season, I know there is a 11 sec slip in your future and I will be going for a 10 sec pass.
