3,009/376=8.00

I hear engines off in the distance - sounds like a diesel and a big block Ford approaching at high speed...

Todd - your Chap Leader must be real proud of you, if he isn't P-O'd about your truck leaving his at the starting line!

Hey all!

Back from a day of racing--at least it took my mind off this for a while.

Good news is......WE WON SECOND, moved up in the points, and--we didn't tear anything up!!

Walked away with a nice trophy and a few dead presidents on paper--can't beat that.

Now, my next delimma, I am leaving early in the morning for a 7 hour drive to Atlanta, and I won't be home till Wednesday night. I am going to miss the whole nail biting end of this thing.
I am hoping for some computers in the lobby of the hotel so I can keep up.

I will have to miss a round with the race truck, but there will be others. I feel the competition will get tougher in each upcoming round.

Thanks to all who have voted--It its appreciated by us all.

No amount of Kennedies ever seems to be enough to replace stuff is it? That's what sponsors are for...

NICE WORK!

Joe? Whatever happened to the original Gym Rat thread anyway - we had a ton of cool ideas in there, and it looks like there is another devotee to the Gods of sweat in the house!

We have a few great sponsors--but the out always outnumbers the in!

It only cost us 800 for a trans rebuild and new coolers to win 300--you can't beat a deal like that.

It aint about the money, its for the fun, and listening to those trucks wailing at 6-7 grand with straight up pipes!! This is in our stock class, the others make us look like were sitting still. Our laps run 31-33 seconds, super mods run the same course in 20-22 seconds--pushing over 1000 horsepower.

Hey all,

My wife brought her computer to Atlanta, so I am hooked up!

This one is for Greywolf--I was talking about the mud races and our class being the slowest.
Here is a video of one of the super mod class. This is a diesel mechanic named Chester that runs a 5.9 Cummins in a Chevy truck. This is unbelievable--you diesel fans will love this!


I can't wait for this to be over!

And here's one for the 7.3 fans!

That is unreal. Why does that Cummins sound like a four banger? Jeez the power those machines have.
