Texasfunk vs. Westtexasz
 
Well our dragstrip finally opened up, and who do i meet there, none other then a fellow board member, ask him if he's gunna run, and replies, well, i was hoping to run you.:metal: all in all had some good clean fun! moses the truck looks good in person! cant wait to see how clean that one turns out!! got a quick vid of the race (it was already getting dark) its not a great vid, but hey, its something :D
our track has been closed for 3 years, and street racing has gotten bad, so the owner opened up the close down for racing, hand drop street style! truck would not hook for s*$%, first race it spun all the way thru 3rd, after that kind of slowed into it, cant wait to go again next weekend!:chevy:

it was "street racing" night, no slips, plus we're running in the shut down area, no timers and we leave by hand drops

thanks! its only my second race on a drag strip ever, ( i kno i kno) takes some getting used to but i will say, was a ton of fun! and the track is located in idalou east of lubbock, right now they are only running 1/8th mile due to the track cracking from bad contractors repaving it, we had been without a track for 3 years, but since the street racing got bad, the wner is putting on a street night. here is my first race on a track ever, cold tires, no weight in bed, torque happy 383? yea, i learned quick...:lol:

texasfunk 07-18-2010 11:03 PM

Re: Texasfunk vs. Westtexasz
 
Its my light blue 82..

gchemist 07-18-2010 11:36 PM

Re: Texasfunk vs. Westtexasz
 
Yea, you know it's an 81 or 82. One of the quarter lights it out. Looks like it had the Mustang. I see nothing but tire smoke. You need some slicks or better throttle control to push it.

You bet it's on!! :metal:

Yea, def throttle control! I launched at 3000 and nothiing but spinning all the way to the end, after that I kind of rolled into it! I have some weld 15x12's I'm going to get some et streets for, as it has to be DOT approved for the street legal drags

Hey!!! Good race brother!! I had a blast that night. Too bad the mosquitoes were eating us alive. By any chance did you post up the 2nd run of us yet? I think we were neck and neck until about a little over the half way mark. lol :)

Cool, maybe next time I run it I might have a 5.3 in it. I'm seriously thinking about doing a swap. There is one on RL thats complete for sale. I'm seriously thinking of doing the swap. hehe. :metal:

Re: Texasfunk vs. Westtexasz
 
haha, thats no fair. :lol:

Re: Texasfunk vs. Westtexasz
 
5.3? It's no match for our trucks. I've toyed with 5.3 truck owners. Ya better bring something modified, because a stock 5.3 will see nothing but tailgate. :metal:

Really? I didnt know that. I guess I'll have to cam this one and add a few extra goodies. Then again, its just an idea at the moment. :chevy:

Re: Texasfunk vs. Westtexasz
 
A 5.3 can hold its own. Remember, we are not running stock engines. :metal: A stout engine needs torque to get past us.
