My X Sled Pulling

No suspension stops…clamped springs yes.

254'…6th place...in the money.


Suspension stops and injectors needed…check!

Who said our X's can play with the pickup trucks.

These are the 18" ones with proper back spacing made for only about 6 months before the coil sprung trucks came out…but yes…stock 18"ers.

Thanks!

My Signature was deleted…just posted it back up. But I have the "usual" mods. The Powermax really kept me clean running Innovative's ExtremeRace tune. Listen to the vid…once it shifted to 3rd and locked up the TC it pulled like a champ. Thanks Eric! I need suspension stops and more fuel. I couldn't believe it…Eric's Race tune while pulling ran cooler than the ExtremeStreet on the street…I love both by the way.

Announcer says, "I didn't see that comin."

I love it!

Would you be mad if the announcer said, "That's a nice looking station wagon"
