Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck

I tryed to break into the 8's in the quarter this morning but I'm so used to running eighth mile I only put 6 seconds in my nitrous timer! I needed atleast 9 or so. I did get a new fastest time though. I ran 9.39 at 133.57!

Nice....I busted the input shaft on the th400 hitting 3rd in the finals of the Wally race... The new manifold netted a 9.73 at 139 in 3875" DA and 140 track temp..

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck

Way to go Kevin!! Season is pretty much wrapped up here, my 12 bolt has taken a beating ( 1.52 60' 4373lbs. ) hopefully by next year I'll have a 9" in my truck and likely step it up to a 180 shot. Going to go for some mid 10 sec runs next year.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck

Slick looking truck! If the offset is right you can get a very big tire under your truck! If they are local tell the guy you'll take them if the fit! He can bring them over!

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck

Bill I'm glad you got a shot of me running the other 67 pickup! You should have come by my pit we had tons of food and drink! Email me those pics full size if you don't mind. revillot@elmore.rr.com


Big Jim
Its a pig on the motor with the big heads! I went 6.40's last year! I am picking up much more with the spray(almost a full second on a 250 shot). I can't wait to try more spray and the short tires!

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck

I almost bought the farm! I went to the track last night and was setup for a 1/4 mile nitrous pass! When I left the starting line the track locator bracket broke off the rearend housing! Thank goodness it did not break at 140 plus! I have a cheesy little video of it but it was dark and far away!

This is what we had to do to get it back to the trailer. You can see the track locator behind the battery! I had an old friend bring his portable welding unit to the track and fix it there! We were back to making passes in about an hour! Special thanks to Mike Honeycutt!
