Damn John great times! Did you do a crank pulley or blower? With your agressive chip and now extra boost your really testing the 5.4 powerplant. You have too be making over 400 rwhp... Once again nice times...et and mph..

Wow, that is impressive. I haven't raced "in a few years" but when I did I could always get my best times at Cecil too. The ETs were always quicker then Maple Grove and York US 30. I don't know your age so you may or may not remember York US 30. I'm not sure if I'm going to modify my L but if I do I'll stop to see you. Great job!!

Cool

Thanks alot everyone! yes we all had a great time! what a way to finish off the season..their's no doubt we all will run some awsome times @ WFC..JDM changed my top pulley. i gained around 1.5 lbs. of boost on the street. it didn't feel much stronger..but the ET's showed around a 1.5-.2 tenths quicker and the mph a huge 4 mph gain!

Rick: your tow trucks really fly LOL ! i think we made a few more belivers....i really liked the grudge racing Rick really got em fired up! linn was putting some FEAR into some of those guys..Scared one into a REDLIGHT!...

Special thanks! to superstallions and bill tumas for allowing us to be part of a special gathering.hope we all can do it again!....

Spiro: JohnnyLightning won't let you stay on top too long, better enjoy it while you can! J/K! its always great to be neck and neck with ya!!!! (keeps it interesting!)...JL

YODA,

We both did the uppers only, and must say, with great results. But like Rick said, as long as they are tuned right they will help.

JL, I dont think we have to worry about each other, but rather worry about what is going on in the HIGHRISKcamp Great day yesterday buddy, when are we going again

Tundra,
I really dont think anyone will be coming out with a lower pulley, not even PSP

BADDOG,
Gordon, LOL, 11's would be nice, but without the required rollcage.
You guys missed a great day, wish you were closer, there was even a pro-mod car there "The Undertaker". I know for sure with a little weight off that truck of yours you would have also been in the 12's

JL, Spiro,

By January you guys should be able to get some sub-zero temps and run in the 11s!

Congratulations to both you maniacs.
