That's great! So no sled puller? Enjoy the family time. Looking forward to seeing you guys progress with the lighter weight vehicles!

Thanks Bob, you are correct. We have a 6yr old daughter and a 2yr old son, and a baby girl on the way, ya'll pray for me , but really we're excited, i just need to make sure the wife and kids get the attention they deserve between our busy race schedules.

Good deal man, how old do they need to be before you can put them behind the wheel?!

Even a billet block/head Cummins is 150lbs heavier then a Big block nitrous engine, and in the gas world a $40k budget gets you a 4000HP engine (its not fair).

Lavon
Don't worry it's not that unfair, a Proline 481X is $66,900 and 4000 hp turbo package another $39,500. Still sad to see the truck go, but as you noted, you've accomplished plenty with it. Tony Rizzi has already said he wants to run 3s in the 1/8 so is that where you're headed? That would be awesome.

4.61 is the fastest Tony's been according to what he said, he races no time/no prep a lot so most times are verbal without time slip evidence. His new truck is going to be lighter and fast, can't wait to see it out in action. Progression is what we're looking for and getting a diesel in the 3s is not easy. I hope to get there in 2020, but until i have a timeslip in hand then its just a goal to chase.

He doesn't seem to fair too well or taken very seriously on the Street Outlaw shows. You never have any times to show so who knows how fast he's going. Getting into the 3's would be awesome albeit but a bit lofty expectation in my opinion.

Rizzi runs the 30s Chevy with the duramax? Not the blue car with the Wagler DX500 blower car though, right?
