I remember a good running 08 body style truck in (I think?) 3.0 - not sure if it was a 6.4 or 7.3. Ran good. What happened to Ben Miller and the double overtime p-pump 7.3?

The 6.0 is really a 6.9 (stroked 6.0), his turbo I guess didn't meet tech Friday, so he pulled in the 3.0 I think, then Saturday he broke in qualifying I believe.

I am sure it is up to the individual techs at the pulls, but why is it legal for a guy to run a 10' bed in 2.6? Was that bed a factory option? This has only happened on fords as far as I know. The red one from a couple years back and this one.
It really doesn't matter, but if a top running dodge or chevy was built like that would it be more of an issue?
Sorry for the derail.

You would have probably made a better showing in the finals than I did on on Friday night. My t4-t6 adapter had loosened up from the manifold and I had a huge exhaust leak. My truck ran like poo and choked quick in the finals on Friday.

Having an early draw helped a lot. I wasn't as far back as you Friday but 10th from last and the upper track was done running by the time I got up there. Saturday I put almost 20' more on my Friday pull and the track didn't seem to go away as much on Saturday. I actually thought I was going to make it after I saw you pull after me on Saturday. I knew you had made it Friday being the last puller so I figured there was a chance but finishing 16th wasn't the worst I could have done. Still had a great time for my first time at Scheid.

I scoped your truck out too. Was going to say hi but you were no where around. I had just enough time to download your tune.

I figured you were trying to steal my R&P set up.
When did you stop over?
