My name is Alan....and I got my butt handed to me.

The first step is admitting it I hear. Damn it.
A DMAX and I went at it yesterday and he caught me and put a bumper on me at WELL over 100. I wasn't running N20 or my Snow kit and I was not on my biggest tune but should have been big enough but still, I lost. That rig could RUN.

Yeah they don't have much low end power. But when they get up in the RPM s the extra HP really helps.

They trap about 3mph faster in the 1/8th than mine.

Merry Christmas to Y'all too!!

Yeah - there is ALWAYS someone faster and I met him yesterday. I couldn't believe how hard he pulled. I wish we could have gone a 1/4 from a stop but he handed me my butt on the highway.

Looked like a newer model Joe - great looking rig. We turned some heads going at it like that, that's for sure.

Well anything would beat my truck right now. Because it is dead in the snow until I replace the fuel pump.

Damn Alan, that sucks to loose to a bowtie

At least you have people to race down there, I can't ever find anybody that wants to race me. Not that my truck is built anywhere as well as yours. Must be afraid to loose to the blue oval
