I plan on ordering a few parts from you once the Canadian $ goes back up. Respectable numbers for bolt ons. Nice job.

Those are incredible numbers:favorites13:

Unfortunately they say the CND dollar is going to just keep dropping, they predict .69 by the end of summer. That is pathetic. Our dollars should be on par, it's not like the US econemy is that crazy strong and recovered, there are still alot of Americans financially hurting.

Thanks guys. I just added a video of the 12.73 pass. I don't think anyone got the other 2 runs on video.

3 weeks ago, I ran a 12.82 with a 1.72 60' time. After that I switched intakes, added front runners, and underdrive pulley. My 60' times dropped from a 1.72 to a 1.66. I contribute all of this to the underdrive pulley because I doubt the intake and front runners had any affect on my times in the first 60' of the track. Those are both mods that benefit more at higher speeds on the big end of the track.

.06 does not seem like alot to most, but at this power level and ET, a .06 drop in 60' time is a major increase. I am very happy with the end result.

skinnys have a larger affect on 60 than any of those mods, dropping over 50+ pounds or more of rotational mass off the front end and a little better air helped that 60' out a ton. That's a awesome 60 and anyone I know that's ran skinnys on their trucks absolutely know it helps 60's.

If you really believe that your wrong. But is smells like a sales pitch to me. Cause there is no way in hell!

I sell skinny's as well, they are more expensive than the pulley, and we make more profit to sell them than we do the pulley. Get over the sales pitch nonsense that you keep posting all over the place. I would not be recommending parts if they did not work, and us putting these exact parts on our truck and breaking records in only 2 track trips clearly shows that they are working.

no videos?

We got a video of the 12.73 pass. The link is at the top of the first post in this thread. The dragsrtip actually recorded that same run as well and posted it on their facebook page last night.

Nice runs. And not trying to be negative or anything but I wouldn't be bragging that it was on only two track visits being that you bought the truck just recently and have a endless supply of performance parts at your fingertips that will most likely be a right off at the end of the year being that it's your "shop truck". Put that truck build on a normal everyday guys budget like your 03 was and it wouldn't be breaking records in 2 track visits. I'm very happy to be seeing a 4th gen running like your truck is. But you've been in the game for a long while, you know all the tricks to making these trucks fast and have a endless amount of vendors at your dispense . Congrats to your new times but know that it is no suprise to most that you have the record being that the last record was held by a 4x4 daily driver. im sure a lot of us would like a truck dedicated stricky to racing and a **** ton of vendors and most likely free tuning and discounted parts(if not free) to be able to build one up that fast and go break records. Makes me want to go build up a 4th gen rcsb 2wd. Once agian though, congrats and keep setting that bar higher. It will be fun to watch others try to chase it. Gonna take some damn good air to beat what your putting up

Good job Matt!!!! I'm glad that we all gain from the experience you get when you use the parts you sell. I was thinking, after reading one of the posts, my plumber has a better toilet in his house than I have and I bet he got them either free or really cheap from his suppliers, and boy I'm pissed cause he didn't give me the same thing as he's got. Hell, it might even be a new test toilet and he will write it off on his taxes. I bet it even works faster and uses less water too, damn it just don't seem fair! GIVE ME A BREAK!!!!!!
Congrat's again Matt--good runs

Thanks guys. No hurt feelings here because it has been this way for years when it comes to racing. The quickest guys always get flack from people on the forums.

We bought this truck with the sole purpose of showing everyone that the exact mod list that we have been recommending to customers for years now will produce results. It doesnt matter if we installed them in 1 day or 5 years. The parts list works, and our times in the truck prove that. It is a track truck for me, but that does not mean that it is in anyway un-streetable. It gets driven 1.5 hours to the track and 1.5 hours back. It has a full interior minus the seats, and actually still weighs more than most of the 3rd gen regular cabs out there. These 4th gens have been out for 5 years now, and there is nothing fancy or special about the parts we are running. They are the exact same parts that I have been recommending for years now.

Anybody in a 4th gen can have a 12 second truck by following the mod list that we have in this truck, and do so for less than $5000 in parts. That is a lot of money, but not in any way unreasonable for someone that is looking to go fast. Its cheaper and more reliable than adding a simple supercharger.

I appreciate the positive support, and will be hopefully posting even faster times this coming Friday with some more seat time. I'm fully expecting to be posting a 12.5 slip next week.
