    Going to the race track... suggestions?

    Just got back from the weekend down in Tennessee. I entered the test and tune Friday night to see if I could get dialed in to the tree and launch my Ram with a decent reaction time. I made 9 passes, and couldn't get the reaction time down at all. I attempted to deep stage. I attempted to leave...

    Going to the race track... suggestions?

    I can't afford heads up racing... it's either bracket or index racing for me. No slamming on the brakes for me. I will hold a couple of numbers once in awhile just to make the race look different to my opponent. You have to keep them thinking. Never say never. lol Although I've never locked...

    Going to the race track... suggestions?

    Everything I've ever raced preferred the cool air. I'm going down to Tennessee... that's where the race is. We get crazy humidity up here. I switched my race truck over to alcohol... really helps with dialing it in no matter the weather. Jeff

    Going to the race track... suggestions?

    If it hates the heat the same every pass... I'm okay with that. They have a test and tune night on the Friday. I'm planning on doing test hits to see what works. The race itself is Saturday afternoon into evening. Jeff

    Going to the race track... suggestions?

    Thanks again guys. Sounds like I'll just put it in 4wd, hit the tow/haul mode and go. Then figure out what my reaction times will be, and change my leave to hopefully not lose before the race really gets going. I run a transbrake and leave on the button with my race truck. Going to take some...

    Going to the race track... suggestions?

    Thanks for the information guys. I've drag raced for decades, so I understand how to do the basics... I've just never driven a street car/truck. My race truck is a tube chassis S-10 that runs very low 9's in the quarter and 5.70's in the 1/8 mile. Actually, right now it can't do anything with...

    Going to the race track... suggestions?

    Hey guys. The engine in my race truck blew up last time at the track. I've been planning on hauling it down to Tennessee for a race/meet with some friends. I'm still going to go down and was thinking about racing with my Ram as they have a street class at the track. I wanted to ask anyone that...

    question on boring out a 5.9

    Yes, if you bore an engine you have to buy pistons for the new bore diameter. By the way... you can't bore a 360 out enough to get to a 408. You also have to buy a "stroker" crankshaft to get the needed cubic inch. Jeff

    What did you do with your 4th Gen this week?

    I went to the race track... didn't race the Ram, but it pulled my race truck to the track. Jeff

    What did you do with your 4th Gen this week?

    Picked my truck up today. I now have ice cold AC! The tech showed me the suction line and the condenser. He showed me the areas that had what looked like corrosion or something, one little area on each part. He said that's where it was slightly leaking freon from. He said to be glad it was...

    What did you do with your 4th Gen this week?

    I dropped my truck off at a local dealership to have them look at why my AC system wasn't cooling properly. You could get cold air once in awhile, but other times it was only about 70°. I was worried as it was hit or miss if it worked or not. So I explained in great detail everything. Seems to...
