I am happy to have an update on the truck. This winter I did a back half 4 link and a front half and really focused on weight loss. Started over with a sleeved 6.7 12v with a single 75/96/1.32. I finally got to race the truck for the first time this weekend at all day diesel event and took home the win in 6.50 and pro street with a best pass of 6.23. The truck needs help on the 60 foot and I plan to focus on that before RTDS. It’s a relief seeing what you worked so hard on finally make a debut and it winning the event. I couldn’t have done this without my sponsors, I appreciate any and all Help I have received. #anteatertruck

It’s got more in it. That was with a 1.55 60 the launch wasn’t where I wanted it. Also very minimal spray on that pass as I only had a spool solenoid. I am hoping to run 5.90 on this 75. No nitrous is used to spool it either

How about better pics on that completed front end chassis work? Radiator / intercooler support?

Unfortunately i am not done with weight loss and wanted to race but it’s at 4450 ish with me in it and 5 gallons of fuel and a full bottle of nitrous. I had to fill the 17 gallon cell to make weight this weekend. In 5.90 it’s getting lighter. I still have drum brakes and those are getting replaced with tbms. Wanting to make an aluminum trans pan. Radiator and water pump are going out Back in favor of a electric one that’s lighter. Because of this the water necks and big alternator bracket are going to light weight AN. Hoping to save weight there. That’s with gutted steal doors yet. I wanted 4300 race weight

What all do you wanna see. The rack and pinion is amazing. Love that thing.

That is a beefy intercooler.
Stock frame only goes from the front axle to back of cab?

Correct. It was only going to be under the cab but i ran out of time. Hind site if I do anything more to the chassis it will start with a pile of tube and me selling this chassis. Building a promod is about as easy

I didn’t know if that was to meet some requirement in the rule book or something.

The beauty of 5.90 the class I built it for is we have no rules. Fallow safety and don’t go faster then 5.90 and you are golden. It’s a fun class
