Event is March 7th. Hope we have good weather this year . They're doing 1/8th mile this year. I plan on going if I get my 94mm back from Forced Inductions soon . Blew the oil seals after just 4 miles. Haven't even been able to tweak my new setup yet due to that problem . Hopin to see some fast DMax trucks there. Should be a fun day !!

Quinton hope you can make it . Just did the house thing last year in June so I know the feelin . I put my new setup on the back burner till several weeks ago . When I got back on it and got new tunes in it , I saw I needed to get Convertor loosened up to 3000 stall to let the big setup eat . Put it together went to spool it up and bufffff there went the oil seals on my new turbo . Waiting on it to get back . Come Hell or high water I'm gonna try to get there too . Stay after it hope to see you there !

I'll see if willie will be able to make it if I can't. I'm sure he is itching to get on the dyno at least and spray it. I don't believe he has sprayed it yet with the big twins. In ennis he made 980 or so with no waste gate adjustments, no nitrous, tune 4. I ran it down the track and ran 11.7 at 119mph with a very soft launch on tune 4. I can't wait to see what your light truck can do with the new setup!

Sadly I was the fastest Dmax last fall. I don't consider myself fast compared to a lot of trucks I know are out there. I hope a lot more can show up this time. I'm sure there will be a lot of fast Cummins that show up like they always do at Little River. Only fast Ford was a single s475 6.4 running low 7s. We were going to race in the finals in the 7.7 index but got r worded out. I'm about to pull the truck into the garage to put new rotors and pads among a few other things to get her ready. I haven't raced much at all since I put the new converter in. I do know it is a lot easier to stage now. I'm not racing in the NHRDA but I will for sure be racing at little river if possible.

I know there was at least a few cummins in the 6s last time. One of them is Robert Ivey. He has a RC short bed conversion. Sick truck. He is constantly changing turbo setups etc and he gets faster every time.

Should be interesting . I had a money race set up with the blue truck last year but blew one of my hoses on a test run tryin to juice it . Had to eat crow and cancel the bet due to breakage . I had beat him out of a $ 500 payout in Denton a week or two earlier for highest horse power on the Dyno . My fuel only beat out his fuel/NOS Dyno . So I collected the $500 payout check . It was a blast . Couldn't run cause it had rained .

Yeah I remember that grudge race. I was hoping ya'll could have raced. Maybe you can call him out again or maybe Robert. Robert made just over 1100hp on fuel only.

I should be right in that range as well with my new setup . Thing to keep in mind is which set up comes in quicker . Lol since they are only doing 1/8th mile this year . I'm bring my NOS to spank it on out of the hole if I need it . Hoping to get some test runs at Tx Raceway track before the 7th so I know ahead of time . I haven't been able to dial in my wastegate yet due to my 94 mm bowing the oil seals

Should be fun. Depending in what you run on your lowest tune I might grudge race you. Lol
