1stgens pulling at Wahoo NE

Well, Made my 1st hooks of the year last night and was very pleased with how my old Pile of junk ran. This was the 1st hook with the "big" governor spring and holy crap did it make a difference, I also made a few other small changes that helped the performance dramaticly. I finished 5th in both classes


stillsmokin, captainchrysler and Travis Bennet were also pulling in the class I was in. Travis seemed to be having tranny troubles but Jeff and Curt ran well also. I liked how tightly we were grouped in each class. In the light class me Jeff and Curt were all within about 10ft of each other and in the heavy class were within 4ft of each other.

We got video of all of our hooks except Me and Travis' heavy hooks as the camera batery went dead

Heres a couple pics I snapped

Yep there 33/12.5/17s When you stick a tape on em the tread actually measures about and in wider than the same size in a 16.

Thanks for the compliments.

I'm still amazed my old pile is right in there with Curt and Jeff.
