Just want to say a big thanks to everyone who was able to make it out and run there rides. Also want to give a big thanks to John for all his help with getting this set up. Congrats to the winners of the take home money.
Just a heads up this will probably start to become a yearly race so start getting those rides ready. And John I think Tyler will be on the hunt lol. Great show to those two guys.

I had a great time. Sorry if I was an ******* to anyone, just had alot of tuning to do. Considering I couldn't even get it off the trailer because altitude difference had the tune so far off. Plus had to change the tune up on the nitrous because if the altitude..
Then the coolant temp wire had broke inside the plastic at the coolant temp pigtail and was not making contact. That's why it died at the light then when I was racing John it just fell on it face..
Just kinda frustrating..

Big thanks to the guys at Skoggin Dickey. We had a great time and enjoyed meeting PT members. If these meets continue count me in. Next time the car will be ready.
Great job by Freek and Dirt getting to the final round. Those are some fast trucks.

Thanks guys! Tyler, that really sucks that the coolant temp sensor was goin to **** on ya, you probably would have won that last race! You had me on reaction time AND 60ft!!! I would've had to real you in hard at the big end to catch ya, which prolly wouldn't have happened cuz I think our trap speed was close when the beast was running good?

Again, Thanks to everyone who came out! I enjoyed meeting all of you and putting names to faces. Thanks to every one who joined the Quick 8 and helped us put on a good show. I appreciate you all working with me on that deal and making it run so smoothly. Hopefully, next year we can do something even bigger.
John & Tyler, pleasure to finally meet you both. Trucks were really hauling ***! Glad you guys came down!
David (RacinRust), congrats on the consistency win. Very impressive ETs for a stock 6.2 truck. Making me wanna trade in my 2013 haha. Very nice to meet you.

Tyler will be back next year. We'll that setup in a 3800# regular cab and give 'er hell.
The 60' was way off from normal, mph is down, and et is way off. Hopefully we're gonna make some changes and make the truck run what it should. We did make good progress at the track though. Dropped .2 in et, gained 4mph and dropped the 60' .1 from making small changes here and there. Still sucks for anyone to work as hard as Tyler only to have stupid issues come race day.
Sounds like everybody had a good time and there was some awesome sportsmanship from my understanding. Can't wait to actually make it to a race instead of living vicariously through Tyler lol
