    Yeah .. I don't know who came up with those calculations but they were definitely nowhere near close to accurate. I'm sticking with GPS.

    What did I think was gonna happen? Well I knew larger tires would make the speedo show UNDER true, and the gears would correct some of that, but I was also told by Socal Supertrucks that I was correct in my incorrect-theory that speed sensors were in the hubs, so I don't take full blame on the inaccuracy :D

    Haha, well we pretty much sat down and talked for a few hours about what I want to do. A lot of labor cost is tearing my truck down to cage it and link it. And all that labor could go into a solid race chassis. Basically it boiled down to option A build my truck with a score cage and links or option B for the same price build a race chassis with links up to the same point for roughly the same cost. So I'm still mulling it over but I'm definitely leaning towards just having a truck built and save tearing mine apart

    Let me know if you all are going to have another "mod day". I have my fox fronts and springs from Doug installed when they come in. I need to get my rear Walkers rebuilt. Plus I need to wire up a new lighting setup.

    Hey all. I know there are a few things going on this weekend. But I wanted to extend an invite to all anyway. The So Cal Sand Drag season kicks off today through Sunday at the Soboba Casino in Hemet. It is the first of four weekends. If you have never experienced top fuel and top alcohol dragsters racing down a 300' dirt course, it is pure adrenaline!

    www.socalsanddrags.com

    Have a good weekend all!
