Well pulled my duramax for the first time tonight. I ended up pulling 299.58 and the 2nd place was 259.??. There was 15 trucks, I got a bad bounce about mid track and had the get out of it and then back in it and then about 290 it set a fault code and I lost throttle pedal. So all in all I'm very happy with the way things turned out considering Brayden was doing the tuning with efilive as we were hooking to the trailer to leave for the pull. I didn't have a chance to try the new tune out, tried it on the track.:eek: Just wanna say thanks to Brayden for his hard work. I think I'm gonna like the whole sled pulling thing. :D

I pulled at johnson county fair in frankin. Had brayden do the tranny install. Now it just has some tuning issues to get straightened out before the 31st which is morgan county fair in martinsville.

Indiana pulls must be a lot different.

Around here, if you get a bounce of any kind, your basically done.

The fact that you lost your throttle and still went nearly 10 more feet sounds odd. That far down the track and the sled guy is laying on the brakes so if you lose 10hp your done.


Sounds like a good combo though. Im sold on EFI Live too.
