yea it was a fun weekend out there. only good think I can take away from Friday night at the track, was im not disappointed with the 13.2, the truck has high 12s in it for sure. and the motor is stronger then it ever has been.

well have the trans pulled out in the next day or so, and get er fixed. Diesel nationals is only a couple weeks away, and you can bet that this truck will be there. we have come too far with it to not have it to finish the show season.

Pulled trans out Friday night looks like we trashed the dpc converter. Trans wil be headed back to Mpd for Craig to go through, converter on the way to dpc, and mind as well toss a billet flex plate in since we're here. 3 weeks till diesel nationals truck will be done by them

got off the phone with phil from DPC not long ago...converter is completely trashed, hoping to a replacement on the way back in a couple of days, billet flex plate ordered, and just waiting to hear from craig how the rest of the trans looks. hopefully some parts start heading back this way towards the end of the week so we can get the truck ready for nationals next weekend.
