DAAANG, I want to be at this race BADLY.
And the day a vehicle with a 1000 pound motor stuffed in the nose pulls the wheels 3 feet is the day pigs fly! And I don't mean Dave catching a ride with Tim. LOL Sorry couldn't resist the analogy.
.
the Dmax is a lot lighter then 1000 lbs , and wheels in the air is the best way to keep one stuck to the track.
look at any Super Stocker .
here is me at the Dallas event with a 300 cid single 4 barrel motor, 3300 lbs car

:drive::tree:
Oh trust me, from the call's I've been getting everybody is getting innovating LOL In the last week I have heard of some WILD idea's people are coming up with. I think after this race is over there will NOT be a ton of 66mm charger's for sale.............I see the BIRTH of a new racing class!! People, this going to be the end all of diesel drag racing as we know it. Just think of it, an affordable FAST, FUN class of truck's that MOST anyone can build. Everyone think's you have to be RICH to run in this race, I say all you have to do is THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX!! Nuff said, Gary :st:
This is the beginnings of real racing. Racing where two trucks actually make it to the stripe under power, and live to come back around, to make another pass.
The more limited the rules, the more you will get innovators in to the class. The .4 tenths pro tree , makes it all come in to prospective.
This is not just about power , it’s about the sport of Drag Racing .
the Dmax is a lot lighter then 1000 lbs , and wheels in the air is the best way to keep one stuck to the track.

David , you are dead on , and I am excited about this. Real racing is comiong. and the anti is being bumped up.I have been around since the birth of organized diesel racing and after all the pages and years of BS it comes to down to these 3 post that will be the maturing state of diesel racing.
Everything else up to this point has been the normal course of birth, crawling and stumbling to walking, now we enter the stages of learning to run and run at full power.
I personally know a lot of the guys arguing in this thread and while we will always have competitive camaraderie just think of the Mustang(Fox body racing) days back when it started in 92-93 era. When you put limitations on something the true innovators will come out of the wood work and sad to say it will not be many of the guys that have been around for years making smoke shows. This simple set of rules will set apart the racer/tuner from the wanna fit in average smoke show enthusiast/participant.
.98 60's on a 10.5W tire with the front hiked about 6" max.
Your camaro wasn't even close to that kind of power, tire limitation OR 60' time.
You do NOT need to hang the front 3 feet high to plant the tires.
With that statement, you truly show that you do not understand drag racing’s basic principles, or the sport of drag racing.
The Super stocker you’re looking at is state of the art at the time, and won a world championship. Was driven by myself, Mike Edwards, , Buddy Nickens, Mike Tumble, and a few others when it was a trainer in Nickens brothers racing camp. All Super Stockers with the small tires it run’s leave like this. The engine is an all gasoline engine no turbo’s just throttle. In other words, power the hard way. Can someone put this guy in his place; you’re so far out of your league, not to be rude , but I’ve forgot more about drag racing , then you will ever know by wiping tires on your buddy’s car.

This has to be Gregs #1 best post of all time! No offence to anyone, just sayin, greg got some balls today! :lolly:
I can't wait to see you again Greg. I wanna know if your guts are as big in person as they are on the Internet.
I fully understand that car was state of the art at the time...it's NOt that time anymore.
You don't have to donthings now the way they were done 15 years ago.
..I know UNBROKEN personally he is a really nice person..
You're just saying that because Richard's a behemoth (aka "Moose") who could tie your spine into a sailor's knot...
