Default It's been 3 years since the frst 8 second pass in a fullsize LSx power gm truck...

Where is the rest of them?

What's the story on flaco's truck? Made any hits lately?
The black turbo truck from down south was shooting for 8s or faster? What's the story on it?
Casey2323 has a killer ride coming together.
Blown06 is bringing a procharger to the game.
Jasond26 has a nasty ride that should make some big power

Anymore really fast trucks coming together? Where they at? When they gonna be making passes?

Handful of 9 second trucks running around.
10second trucks are the norm anymore
11second trucks will get you laughed out of the room
12 second trucks within days of purchasing a new one lol

I'm in the laughed out of the room category, so don't think I'm taking shots at anybody. I was just curious. It's been 3 years since a fullsize gm lsx powered truck has gone 8s. Just figured we'd see a lot more by now.

Any insight?

blacksheep had the nitrous 408 truck that was swift. he keeps the times a secret tho.
now is a turbo 370 i think.

I rem back when Parish was doin it big with a 10.9 pass. then he broke 9s and thought that was insane..

then stock48 comes in and bust 9.6s on a simple build, and then 9.7s on a stock lq4.

foose does low 10s on a baby 4.8, things are gettin crazy..

cant wait to see what the IZZY truck does.

Yeah black sheep is the O G of the 9second trucks. He was the first. And with nitrous none the less. I'm sure the turbo 370 is even stouter.

Parish never ran 9s. 10.0s but never ran a 9.

Stock48 is a god amongst men lol

fooses truck is cool for sure. but still a 10second truck(not that that's anything to sneeze at, but I'm looking for the guys trying to go 8s or faster)

Izzy...eh

my respect for every fast truck out there, hell for me even a 12 sec truck is fast BUT BBIIGG respect and hats off for flaco being the only one with 8´s, and not high 8´s, 8.40 (im sure its not easy if so there would be more 8´s by now)

Thanks to everyone, definitely some fast trucks out there. I've been focusing on my shop these past couple of years which is the main reason we haven't gone racing lately. BUT, I do have a new engine combination coming out very, very soon which will be more than enough to break the 7 second barrier with ease and set a new record for the 99+ Full-Size pickups.


Thanks again to everyone who has followed our progress throughout the years. I will definitely post an update when I start hitting the track again.
