hard to tell from the videos but is it spinning out at the end? or just getting under the charger.

Little of both. Some it spins all the way and doesn't die. Some I can't get it out of gear before it does. It's hooking all the way to the end.

Took a first tonight in good fashion. Changed to a smaller housing and it seemed to respond well.

Looking good man! Congrats!

Are you holding back any fuel in the tune? Seems exceptionally clean for 150%'s...

Awesome pull.

We can make more fuel. Just trying not to over fuel it.

Holy ***kin shti! That thing got an attitude about that housing swap. Good god. That thing runs harder than old #34, Sweetness.

Definitely makes sense! Just figured i'd ask.

Another first place from a week back. Same class, same pullers, same association. Put 10' on second place. Finally a track that would hold all the power the truck has.

Planning on going the Schieds next week to run 3.0 smoothbore class. James is making me a 3.0 to fit in the s400 chassis like I already run. I am getting a set of duals lined up, here is the inner set.

Well, we have been to the dyno twice with nearly 12 hours on the rollers... Lol. Nothing but issue after issue. New k16's, lots of tiny adjustment problems and we are finally figuring out this truck. Still has yet to make a good dyno pass much over 700 lol.

Able to get it lined out last night and take home a win.

What HP are you running since you got the truck figured out?

Seem to be running into this thing having more power than we can put to the ground. Given the single rear wheel and 35/12.5 tire limitation it's been Proving to be a challenge to hook well on tracks that are loose.

Getting ready for Scheids

Making some changes to get the duals on, 3.0 turbo in, a little maintenance, fresh oil, new drive shafts after breaking, oh and a shiny set of fans to help out parasitic drag.

Haha, yeah the hole was an afterthought when ordering.

I will look, I should have a no-limit sticker. I got some decals to put on before I leave. Add that to the list.
