    Got to beat up on Someone in the HD

    A skittle with a big IC and full pod of gauges got froggy with us Sunday on the way to the engine builder.
    me and typhoon and another buddy in the truck and and engine stand and Built 5.4 navi motor from Typhoons turbo truck in the bed.

    The tune was all jacked up but I had to give it a try.

    The srt4 jumped first from about 3o. We reeled him in got a length ahead and then lifted.

    While at Hurricane in jax. Tony and Torrie cleaned up the tune and fixed most of its issues.

    This stuff never happens when I am in the Lightning

    Way to go Jason!!!! Got to love it when they challenge the big truck and loose!! So what do you think the extra weight was total in the truck between you, josh, your other friend, the engine stand and built 5.4?

    Next thing we got to do is line up you and me and see what happens!!! So did you run here on the dyno and get some new numbers...inquiring minds want to know.

    No dyno tune. I just let them know were the problem spots were and Tony took it from there.

    The tune was jacked up. Way too much timing in certain places. Remember before I bought it I told you it had detonation issues well we know why now.

    I still have a weekend of work to do but will get her in tip top shape.

    Yea I will take the challenge. I sold the drag set this weekend though

    1320 pass... first one out the back door without a red light

    You got me on power so its gonna take a good light for me to have a chance.

    Then again. I could always try a few tricks with the truck.

    Total extra weight had to be about 1500 pounds. me and josh alone are 265 each

    I think it would be a good race between these trucks. I got you on power but you have the upgraded stall and true trac. Weight wise, the trucks should be about the same with all 4 seats, the hard tonneua cover, etc...

    You sold the drag set, so with me on my slicks n skinny's and you on whatever...it should be close.

    As for the light...no PRO TREE. My damn reaction time sucks on that as I need alot more practice and lets see what kinda 60 foot I can pull.

    So are we talking street tune or something else?

    I was just messing with ya... you know me I will run any time. Yea just running a street tune for this truck until I can spend a lot of time on the truck and get her the way I want

    Got a PS pump going in this weekend as well as a few other maintenance things.

    I have a few other sets of wheels so most likely some old 28s could be thrown on the back unless I get wild and grind the calipers. I have a set of 15" weld and the Bogarts for the Lightnings.

    Well as soon as you get up to T-Town we can start tearing up the streets. Also, should we be planning on heading over to PC for the Viper Truck gathering at the 1/8th mile track to show them whats up?

    You know that Amber and I are down!!!
