WOW...now that's quick. What's the truck weigh? Has the chassis been certified? Do you have your competition licence?

Re: drag truck update with pics

the chassis is certified and I don't have a competition licence yet but I will! I used to have a 67 camaro that went 9.20 on the motor! I had to sell it when I got married and made a pit crew!

Re: drag truck update with pics

When do you think she will be ready to race? Looks bad. I mean that in a good way. You are really doing a great job on it and I am sure most of the work is done by that young good looking boy you have there. Your future racing partner. good looking truck.

Jim I'll post what I have but you really need plates in side the bed if you mount it like this! I think you could mount it using the top and bottom of the bed only!
