Rodney, the truck looks damn good and the first time you ran I was on the line and it was smooth as butter. I have never seen something leave that soft and smooth and pull so evenly and got a nice number....but yeah, if you could launch with some boost it would be MUCH better. Cool meeting you btw.

Thanks, Good to meet you Dave. Your truck looked better than I expected in that flat black. I like that look! I could not even leave off idle friday night, but the truck is running great after the 60ft tho.

The other one was a neweer z06, nasty but hasnt any traction.


Kenny Poppel guy or some his lil group with that flat black vette came down to are area talking ****, about one of are buddies Vettes that we where tinkering on tune all night wanting to run for $600, they kind being smart *** to us but we got lil Blue and a Red Z06 that we bringing this Friday night that will put them in check! The newer Vette that was there running Friday night was just a C6 with Z06 wheels and drag radials they couldnt get it to hook all night but still ran strong.


By way Rodney I believe your truck was hooking alot better on those ET Streets than the slicks. I was sitting at line watching yall leave, looked like yall where running lil to much air in the slicks, your buddy he was spinning for bout first 20ft. with Radix truck.

i dunno, it had the badges and all but I didnt spy under the hood or anything. Sounded like they needed a driving lesson honestly, it was on ther rev limiter in between each shift...hard. I understand it was spinning and why not not turn it that hard and baby it, probably woulda ran better.

Clint, did you set something up to run that flat black Vette. Looks like he was sandbagging all nite, then sprayed the **** out out when the money run come. You know what they say, "If you fight fair, your tactics suck".
