12 second video up!

Heres the link,

it sucks cuz the guy in the other lane was the typical so loud you can't hear the truck at all 70's car,

the second one is my 13.09 run, but you can hear the truck a lot better, also, I am spanking a 2001 Cobra!
I almost feel guilty

Question

very nice. How much boost are you showing on your gauge? When I visited Ennis TX, I had JDM install a 2 lb lower pulley so I was seeing 12 in Dallas, 10 here. Altitude sucks. I'd like to get my truck in the 12's (corrected for sea level).

Looking good

Hey Beefcake Beefcake BEEEEEEEEEEFcake (what was that off of?), anyhoo, don't run w/ your tailgate down. At higher speeds it'll actually increase your drag.

I should have clarified my earlier statement:

Don't take it off either, as this will increase drag. Leave it on and up. Adding a bed cover will help as well.

P.s. You're welcome.

Very Nice Runs

What track is that? I have never seen a track with grass between the two lanes.

thanks bfb, haha

the track is at TriState Dragway In cincinnati, Old school lol.

the fast cars that do brackets only run the 1/8th because there is a big dip at the end of the track, lol.

the bigger track in the city, edgewater, unfortunately, is $5 more and preps their track even less than this one. Pretty sad, it could be a good track

Wait what? running with your tailgate off increases drag?
Is that true of all F-150's?
