Old ugly with 6.7.

I was watching the run through the video camera monitor without my glasses so I won't be able to actually see the run till tomorrow night when my son gets here and puts it on my computer. They weren't giving time slips down at the far end of the track like they usually do, but Chris got a picture of the printed slip up at the tower. I'll post it when I get it.
 
Congrats Ron! Did you have any traction issues?

Only when on the throttle....:hehe:

The truck got sideways about 200 feet out and Chris had to pedal it; smoke completely gone and then back in it, which was why the ET was a little slow for the mph. Still a riot to watch that old truck scream by the 1/8th mile at waaay faster than it looks like it should!
 
Rons Truck is a total sleeper thats for sure. It was cool seeing it run. Good seeing you on sat Ron.
 
Freakin awesome! Congrats! That's hauling for a first pass in my opinion. Well that's hauling in general.
 
Not a very good video, but it's all I got.

I'd like to know the 1/8th speed, but it wasn't printed.

With that ET I would imagine it is in the 96-98 mph range

That's gonna be Low!

My mph at 7300 lbs and 850+ hp was 97mph on my 7.16 1/8

I bet his was 103-105 mph given the back half speed gain..
 
That's awesome Ron. Finally glad you made it to the track and that was a damn good run!
