3rd Ari Squire
4th ?
5th Dale Bennett (trailerpropop)
30 trucks
We left to go to another pull before the end of Street.

 

I am not sure what the final results where. Dale and Ari had great pulls. I never got to see the final results. I was told I went 276 with the tow truck! Not bad for totally STOCK. I had a great day! Good to see old freinds.

Kevin thanks for the line!

 

If I wasn't dead last, then I was runner-up for dead last ):h

I was told that the street class had an issue with the sled. I didn't get to see being I was helping tech the trucks in. Had a good time and Larry had a great pull and all the trucks come home with out breaking. Hopefully next time they WILL have better equipment for a points event like this...

Great job John! It was nice to finally meet you a some of the other guys and to get to put a face with the names. I had a great time and Larry got a great hook and brought home the win! Best part is that I don't have any broken trucks to fix. We are going to hit another pull on the way home here in Ohio to aquire some more data on all three trucks. Hopefully the LBZ's do better today.

 

Congrats on the good runs in WS guys! What sled did they have for the event?

So Pat, I gotta know: Is Pops getting laid off next time Stoneboro rolls around? ):h

 

...

I wanted to come up and pull tonight, but I've been sick all day.

Well, that sucks.

On the bright side (for me), I brought a nice big porterhouse steak for you....Looks like I'm eatin' good for dinner tonight!

 

The sled was the old orange Decision Maker. I wouldn't call it a bad sled, but there may have been some question on rather the rear of the pan was raised on a couple of hooks. A couple guys got screwed, I think.

I found out what the 100 ft. rule was for. It's for dumb ***** who forget to shift the transfer case to 4lo. : Sleddy yelled in the window, "You're not in 4 wheel drive". I yelled back, "You can't remember everything".

 

Not as bad as the guy who put it in reverse Pops. He hit the sled hard too.

 

Even if the sled was screwed up I still had a good time.

LOL!! Sleddy said I over powered the track. I know he said Fords don't make any power.

I think Pops was reading Malibu's thread about 2wd pulling. In about 80 hooks it's the first time he has had to restart, not bad for an old fart.

Siting in the stands I thought that truck was totally stock. Very nice pull! Guys, great job to everyone that pulled! I enjoyed the show!

Damn, that does suck. I'm sure your going to complain the whole time you are eating it too right???

old orange Decision Maker

I see the Orange sled a good bit, it's like all of Love's sled top notch equipment. However, everything mechanical does have issues though.

Surely a professional puller like you Pops doesn't need a checklist???

I had several EFI tunes for it but did think the track would hold it. Maybe I should have tryed the little tune. Oh well. I had great time. Saw old freinds. Put faces to some screen names. Very nice meeting Ric, Mark, and Larry. Got play in the dirt. Saturday was good for my diesel soul!

Mat hit the rev limiter almost insantly of the line. I did not have a good vue of it but I heard the pan was down to start?

Stoneboro track is a tricky one. Power can hurt more than helps here. Add the heavy Orange love sled and it really becomes a drivers track IMHO.

Upon watching Pat's video, I don't see the pan dropped at the start of any of the hooks. If there is a sled problem, I'm not seeing it. Pat will post the video later.
The video is now under heavy security and will not be tampered with untill it's posted.

 

Good to here there is video. I wanted to tape the classes but Joy could not come.

partial street class

 

just watched the video and to me it seemed like the sled was heavy right out of the gates????

 

That sled is always heavy from the get go.

 

Watch the video of Matts second hook and my hook. The rear of the pan is six inches off the ground when Matt pulls and ON the ground when I hooked.

 

I watched it several times now. If the pan was down it was only down for Kevin. It was up for Mat and Ric.

 

I wasn't going to post these until I got a response from DHRA but since there is video already out here are the pics. Look at the rear of the sled pan.

Agreed! Kevin, you got screwed....I'll marinate and freeze TBB's Porterhouse and bring it to the TI Dyno event next weekend so you can have it as consolation....
