1/4 mile discussion and time slips post here!
Very cool you have kept this list going and have up graded it. Amazing how fast the trucks have gotten. My old White out is way down the list now. 111th or so. The guy I sold it to said it will still run in the 10's and has had the same engine since 2009. That has got to be a record. He...- Subman

Mike L has passed away.......
It's been forever since I posted on this forum. Mike was a good friend and built a couple of transmissions for me. We were always going to get in a game of golf together but never did. RIP buddy, you will be missed.- Subman

Gale Banks reacts to Hoonigan 1000hp build
He was real close to Buck Sprill, who lived in North Carolina, he tuned Bucks Dmax and they would go to the Daytona 500 every year. He wouldn't have anything to do with EFI live so was pretty much stuck with the LB-7. I remember you had to wait months for one of his ECM's and it cost a...- Subman

Gale Banks reacts to Hoonigan 1000hp build
After watching this and pretty much out of the diesel scene anymore except for my 2007 classic tow rig I use to tow my race trailer, I kind of wondering why they put out the video in the first place it all seems a bit premature give what they are trying to accomplish. Everyone who has...- Subman

Gale Banks reacts to Hoonigan 1000hp build
God I love this statement. Sometime in a different thread I'll tell you guys what the Banks team tried to get me to do when I was running the top 50 list and their sidewinder truck and rail where on the top. They are a real piece of work. I always smile when I see some old geezer with his...- Subman

Glimpse of IdahoRob on Roadkill?
Ended up moving to Pahrump, NV sold the gasser to a guy in Idaho, he'll be racing it at Firebird in Boise. Bought a 1967 Chevy Nova, will be somewhat quicker than the Falcon but still slow enough I won't have to get a license or wear the total racing suit, (I hope). Will race it in Madras Or...- Subman

Happy Birthday Subman
Takes a bit to get everything working in the morning, a hot shower helps.:D I think one of the keys to being old and not acting it is to not have grand kids, all my friends with grand kids act old. :confused: Not that you have any say in the matter, but not having kids helps. Maybe raising...- Subman

Burnt up Kennedy pump
I started with a set of TTS lift pumps when the truck was new in 2007, and they lasted 2 years before getting corroded and dying. Replaced with a set of Kennedy pumps in 2009 and they have been going strong ever since. I do have an after market 2 micron fuel filter in line after the lift pumps...- Subman
