Racing at Newton speedway.
 

Last sunday went to Newton speedway for races. Running the F250 and my first race of the day was a matchup you just don't ever expect to see on a drag strip

Obviously the truck is my F250 PSD, a lot of people are getting more and more used to seeing diesels drag racing but still a little bit of a novelty. But the car in the other lane is believe it or not a BENTLEY.

Not your common race indeed! Kicked butt all the same, right??? Be nice if I had time and cash to make it over there for some of the races...

Roger I would love to claim that I did in fact win but alas the twin turbo'd V8 in a vehicle that weighs half what my truck does got me (although I did hold him off past the 330ft line)

But my times were respectable, here is the times

nice work rob, mabey when winter hits, ill be able to look you up. Harvest is on and so is 100+ hour work weeks.

I was just kidding with you anyway though Rob, it takes much more to get going in a truck like that than a little made to race car... Kind of like trying to race a car against a bike, big disadvantage to the car...

Oh yeah I know Roger, but you know that big ole truck surprises a lot of cars (I can beat most stock vehicles like mustangs and camaro's etc) and I just flat out beat the day lights out of almost everything except all out drag cars in the 60ft times. You know how many people are suprised by a 7200lb 4x4 diesel doing 60ft in under 2 seconds.

And Matt I am sure we can get a chance when it slows down to gtg.
