300' track or 150?

Wouldnt 150' Break more parts?

If you are using a running sled, that weight box is gonna be coming up aweful fast and that pan is gonna hit HARD!!!!!!!
 
Remember your lessons Boss.

From a great and wondrous dragwatchertuner:"

""The sled doesn't weigh anything at the beginning, its on wheels. And the truck is spinning on dirt, so there is no strain at all.""

LOL :homo:
 
Gene the reason you don't like drag racing you are to scared to race. Sleddpulling is much safer and easier on the engine anyway. But if you guys reduced your track to 150' you might have a chance to win then since you always come up short.

LMFAO!
I tell you guys what, I'll make you a deal, door one or door two.
Behind door one is what we paid out in purses last year.
Behind door two is NADM profits for last year.

Take a vote amongst your selves, and decide which door you want this year, for your purses?

Or door three, what Dennis has in paint jobs on his trucks. :hehe:

Dennis is not an organization, so it is not my problem that you don't have any say in the check book area, maybe you should have signed up for president instead of head secretary? With all of the sponsors you have and the packed crowds you bring in:hehe: I Don't see where the money went? Like I told you before..................Don't compare drag racing to sled pulling..................They are different............I promise!

What.. I love racing. I have raced. I just missed the crowds in Sled Pulling so I went back!
 
Gene

Since your the end all, be all, know it all, why do you not race the same distance as a drag racer? Your stuck at 300' try 660' and let's see how much more **** you blow up. Once you can make it that far then let's see you get it out to 1320'. That will let the motors run to 4000 - 5500 at full load over 660' of track. Let see how well they stay together but until then you stick with 300' so your $hit doesn't fall apart.

Darren has said it well "Sleddpulling is much safer and easier on the engine anyway."

You and most of the CompD crew used to really support DHRA which is now NADM. That support seems to have went out the window.

I'm just wondering why so much emphasis goes into the TS or Scheid event when there's many other events to go too.

It is disappointing to see so few people show to some of the other events that the powers that be put so much into. It's like if you can't show your stuff at TS or Scheid, it's not worth doing.

Since your own people refer to you as the DHRA and you act just the same as you did when you worked for the DHRA it's no wonder why you get no one to show up at your events! It was supposed to be different but that never happened, its the same old $hit on another day but now you cannot blame McBride so who's it going to be today?

If you were racing I would say you drove the crowds away. I bet you probably even convinced a few people that you knew wht you were doing?
 
Gene if you put as much effort in promoting NADM as you do ridiculing us drag racers you could have a lot bigger purse for your events.

Why dont you hook a sled to your truck and drag race it and see how many parts you break too? They are different sports, you cant really compare them. Some like to go fast, some like to pull heavy sh!t. I like doing both.

LMFAo.

Jeez do you guys follow me around and defend your manliness?

I was WAITING:cheer: for one of you to say make the pulling track longer, but we dont need to as the 40,000 pound sled makes it it about a 10 mile drag race as it is!!!!
Thank you for taking the bait DT!!



Darren, Dennis, I appreciate your concerns over crowds,(10,000 in the stands at INDY Jamboree) purse, (No one else paid out what we did last year in Diesel Motorsports!)etc for NADM, and I assure you it is going just fine.

Your input is always welcome!! It doesn't make much sense, but I always listen!
Example, this thread is here- I took what you guys were working on in racing and tried to apply it to sled pulling, to see what kind of response Id get.

I see the pullers would like to retain their manhood and use the WHOLE track!!:kick:

Your are right Dennis, racing and sled pulling IS different I see that now.
But I do appreciate your concern for the sport.:poke::hehe::hehe::hehe:

How long is your motor at full load? Same time frame if not more for a puller, its not about distance genius its the length of time.

:umno:


I bet if we check the odometer before and after a pull we probably go over a 1/4 mile.

I agree that the wheel spin is more than 300' but then since the wheels are spinning free you have a lose of traction. That means there is less load on the engine at that point. A drag race engine goes up and down the RPM several times down the strip. Once in high gear it labor for at least 660' at full power max load, a sled puller does not event come close to that.

Gene

It was no bait at all your just too dumb to know any better. That's why your own people call you the DHRA still. As for your payouts they were and are a joke still today. The members and sponsors paid the dues and all your doing is lining your pockets with it. Nothing has changed except that your just looking to blame someone else for your failures. Your just doing the same thing as the DHRA did but I guess that is to be expected as it's all you know to do! Before it was all McBrides fault, now it's TS fault who's it going to be next?
 
Sledpulling and drag racing are very different and whether one is harder than the other is a debate that never ends but drag racers make more runs during an event than pullers we might have to make half a dozen to get to the final round to win so this could be argued both ways. Gene's comment was given like the smartass he is just to stir the pot not as constructive critizism. If I was an owner of NADM I would applaud anything or idea that might put on a better show for the crowd and yes there will be a crowd at the TS drag race and sled pull. this event as well as the SDX are very well run and a good representation of diesel motorsports and bring it to the masses. Gene this is not done in competition against NADM but to promote a sport that to your benefit you ought to want to help dennis and dan to make sure its a success it helps everyone.but your to busy being negative and vendictive of something that is not a threat. If your supposed to be the organization of change you better start at home first.

there is no comparison in this matter, there is no way in hell drag racing is more strain on a truck that sledpullling.. Load is intermittent during drag racing.. Sledpulling is a truck sport, done with trucks. so everyone, please...
