Even if you had 26in hieght you would have done better just have to play with your weight some.What was the winning pull.

i weighed 7930lb 75% of the weight was behind the rear axle.. didnt spin much avg logged wheel speed was 14-16mph few spots hit 25mph running 315/75/16 at 45psi

wining pull was 269.X by brandon bowersock in the 2.6 class/street stock class
 
You will get there soon (GRASSHOPPER)

Get some blocks done will help alot I have faith in you.And get your own hitch.

hitch and stops are getting made next week. all out of 2" square stock.

from what i have heard teh hook will fit over a 2" thick hitch. is that correct dale?

i still got blocks and another 4" to but on.. currently running 35" out back and 33" up front. still havent droped the torrsion bars down in the front yet.. and get some 28-30" tires for the front.

:woohoo:
 
NICE! Back tires dont look too squatty either.... Can you hang weight in your class?
 
cant hang weight in a stock turbo class. the stock turbo guys have been grouped with the 2.6" guys..

rear squated ~2" with the 25" hitch.

got a pull tonight in 3 hours see what happens rain pretty good last night. :bang
