The track was in Newport, TN. Not sure who had the best dyno, but I believe the fastest at the track had an 8.88 run. Here is a link to the thread where people are posting up there numbers.

I'm pretty sure I won't have to worry about that as he seems to work bankers hours.

Droid X FTW!!!! Today I bought the car dock and loaded up Pandora. Had Pandora streaming, the Nav running, and getting calls, all through Sync. When it was time for the nav to speak a direction, it cut in to the music and spoke, and then went right back to music. Awesome!!

I love the Android OS and have heard nothing but good things about the Droid X phone. Just wish I could justify the 60 bucks a month to get one for myself.

The only bad thing about the X is the battery life. I had pandora streaming through my earbuds today at work. Only went for about 4 hours before it chimed in my ear that the battery was low. I usually have to charge it in the middle of the day with heavy usage. I do use it for everything, though. I have google calendar that I use for appts, which easily nav's me to them. It gets a lot more use than my Blackberry ever did. Maybe they made the Droid too easy?

I believe you'd be referring to me when you say 2 tone reg cab. I don't remember any other regular cab trucks nevermind any other regular cab two tone.

My truck: I'm in the passenger seat looking the opposite way. That is a very pretty girl driving my truck in case you couldn't tell who it was.


I believe highest on the Dyno would've been Corey at 509hp unless someone beat him. It was hard knowing for sure since there was no dyno board...

Oh and yes the fastest time down the track was an 8.88 by Robin. My fastest was a 9.78 simply because I've got world's worst reaction times.
