Usually Duner will post about the races, but I heard someone else here mention this. And I called Speedworld. Sunday is Club day, and that's the day they do this (annually i think).

I saw Duner run his Turbo Dak last year as well as some other R/T's.

1hotkadota, ProwlRT, etc who lives around here. Hope to see you there!

Gates open at 9AM. Races start at 10AM


Grande Ave and Jomax

I'll be there!!!!

I've got two "matches" tomorrow.
1 is a Lightning and the other is a Buick GN from Vegas! I'll be in my Black RC R/T. I'm hoping to race the GN early on in the day to establish my "baseline" for performance. Hopefully the track will cut me some slack if it accidently goes too quick. ;>)

Dude I raced a few times since then. NO TRACTION!
I had to drop to 20 PSI!!! How do them slicks work at that track for you?

I know you don't come here as much these days. But I just dropped in 4.56 gears with LSD. I want to go back. But not on a day when I'll just get my a$$ kicked over and over!

There are a few Titan's and Hemi (2WD's) that beat me by less than .4 each one that I want to go back and get revenge on :) They wre all 16 sec trucks at that track.


Anyway. Did I see correctly a video where you ran a 12.3 something????



Are you still towing to the Dunes with this truck?

I guess I can ask some of this tomorrow :)

I towed my trailer and a couple of quads to the dunes for Halloween with my white Dakota. Yeah, it's best video is that 12.31 pass against the Mustang in Tucson.

Here's a video of my Black R/T at the Truckin' Nats a month ago or so.

When did you get a R/T?

And is that 11's I saw???

408? Or just some juice/boost on that 360?



Anyway. I'm on the way to the races, anyone who is going, look for me.

Too bad it was such short notice. I'd like to have met up with some of you from this forum again.

They were close and to be honest, I am not really sure!


Because too many lights were burnt out on them scoreboard thingies!

The 10th digit has a bulb out where the 5 and 6 looks the same! And a 4 and 9 look the same on the other digit!

Sheesh. I hope SpeedWorld fixes that!

But the drivers should have their slips correct and that's what counts. Maybe Duner could come back with exact info...

Oh. It's REAL PLAYER. It takes 2/3 the space for the same quality.



Go download the free player from Real Player website.

Follow the instructions when you install it, and it wont take over your computer like the Nazi designed QuickTime does!
