Nice turnout of trucks.
Too bad the sled was a POS and had its issues.Glad it didn't slow the show down too much.
Newswangers truck definitely had the pull of the show and quieted the Carson Stauffer camp.
Kudos to the gentleman who pulled in the big class with his daily driven 06 CR and held his own with the trailered,purpose built trucks.I also was amazed at the "Wound For Sound" truck as it kinda looked like Brandon Bowersox's old "G-Thang" truck with new paint.Nice to see a couple of CR rides in the modified street class pull with big singles and big fuel and no smoke(hmmm,kinda looked like a few were already running the new SSR's).
I am also still trying to figure out how a "stock' class of trucks smoke more than the modified trucks and when did the D-Maxes get shipped from the factory with their noses scraping the ground in the stock class.
It was a nice day to sit and enjoy a great showing of trucks and see the friends you do not get to see during the winter months.The Steam-O-Rama crew did a nice job getting the show done in a timely fashion.
I think some of those stock trucks were a ton more than stock
The CR that cleared his smoke is a twins truck, hints why he ran in the open class.
As for the "smoke" comment, stock turbo and a programmer/injectors will do that. It is their choice if they want to bump and clear their fuel with a larger charger.
5. Computer chips and reprogramming are NOT allowed.
I wasn't talking about the Silver Rectangle stacked truck that ran with the "Open" trucks...
I was talking about the two CR Trucks that pulled with the modified street class.Both of those trucks had little smoke at the start and had little or none during the pull.
Then correct me here if I say something out of turn....
Here it is right from their own rules.....
Makes a guy wonder how a street legal diesel can smoke more than the mod trucks.Thats all I am saying.
As for the whining D-Max owner with a pocket full of excuses as to why his truck was nose scraping and the others were not......Answer this for me,why did that one D-Max have to drop his nose and the others who pulled in the same class NOT have to do it?.
IMO..Stock means just that..stock,as driven on the street.level playing field.....Sorry.
Anybody got a list of the winners.
