I love it! Wonder why no one had suitcase wieghts on the front of thier trucks? At the pull I went to a few weeks ago they all did and the one 96 F250 had ten 100#s on the front of it. Makes me want to enter mine this year in the pull at the Boone county fair, if it wasn't my daily driver and I could afford to fix what I might break and thought my girl wouldn't kill me if I did break something lol. But I wonder how somthing like my Bronco with it's short wheel base and wieghts on the front would do at a pull like that?

Short wheelbase will hurt you.

Looks like that was a stock or slightly above stock pull.

Weights puts you way up in the modified/extreme/unlimited classes.

Long wheel base is better. To bad they won't let 2 wheel drives in those classes.

Must suck to have paid 20 - 30 k for a new Duramax or Cummings to get whipped by an ol IDI.

Dave the pull I went to here at home was local guys pulling with there trucks. They all had some sort of homade rig on thier front bumpers to hang the wieghts on. One of the Dodges actually had the wieghts fall off when he was hooking up lol. There were no old diesel in the pull they were all compter diesels and chipped to the max I'm sure but still just regular guys.

Since they had a sled, I am sure that pull in the video was some type of sanctioned event.

That means there were class rules as to what was allowed and what was not for each class.
All of those looked street legal and probably driven dailey.

DHRA is the only rules I have ever looked up and weights puts you way up in classes on a vehicle that is probably not driven dailey or street legal.

The truck pull not to far from me was DHRA sanctioned.
