DPC Round Two: Going for Broke

good luck to you bud.

Erik's truck is heavy, running MT's, big HP, and good suspension that seems to put the power to the ground. All these things he has going for him. As Dustin said, the difference in gear ratios front to rear should be negligible in the soft dirt. Let'r eat Erik!

Was going to spray two stages with .110 jets but when the rain came down it looked like a burn out competition. So decided not to do it, but when I was up the track was in great shape. Could have handled the spray.

Saw a video of your pull, looked real good! Way to give 'er hell all week man!

Great job Erik! Sorry about the bad luck, but that truck is one hell of an animal!

Good job man! sucks about all the bad luck. Glad a Ford took it home.

Great job Erik, feel bad for the mechanical issues. Looked like the motor was super strong, and we all know you have wicked driving skills. Just wondering, aside from the massive hp and torque, is the angle fairly extreme from the t-case to front diff, causing extra stress on the pinion/joint, or was it just a simple case of metal fatigue? Just curious. Once again, it was a super-human effort by all involved in Erik's camp for the preparation, last minute repairs, and repairs during the competition!!

So sick lol

You should have heard that wild man with the Duramax dually. I ended up going out there cause I head him doing burnouts through the parking lot.

Erik do you ever sled pull with it? I don't know what class you'd be running. But seems like it loves to be hooked to a sled

It seems like heavy 6.4 trucks like to sled pull, a shop out here built a 450 lifted with AF 22's that thing is a big truck. Local sled pull, he had to pretty much brake to keep from going off the end of the pulling track. And he had very minor mods

He said he may go to redding, which is the same weekend, and is in his home state of Cali. My guess is he is getting the front end fixed before it goes anywhere.
