That's about normal times for a stock 6.0! SMKSTAX is running better than that with his 04 supercab but it has several advantages over your lifted/large tire crew cab.

For $400 you can cut 3 seconds off those times and add 16 mph! All it takes is a credit card and a phone call Joe. It looks like you had fun and that's what really matters.

maybe so, but the turnouts are getting to small to even waste the time to do anything anymore....

the DFW guys are doing one on the 6th of April, look in the TX section for the info..

wellllll.....IMO the midnights are a huge waist of time....too many damn kids and there slow cars.

Friday night Test and Tune is usually were i will go.

17.xxx track time is about right for your truck as well. U MIGHT push a low 15 with a SCT tuner of choice.

My dodge with a tuner is a very low 14 and stock is a low 16 FWIW.

My "toy" PSD is a handshaker and it used to run a midish 13 at 97mph that was a 430hp and 1014ftlbs its also only 2wd and has a serious traction prob.
It stands somewhere between 525 and 550hp now....otta have it out when the weather warms up a bit. the "fiancee" isnt much on anything unless its a GOOD 70+ degrees outside---(at night). LOL although i have been known to go by myself a few times!

Ill more than likely as always come around in May-ish
