Yeah I race out at PIR, There is actually two of them now, I believe she drives the white one.
Hey, I'll have to look into that to verify the pre-loading of the traction bars, I thought I read pre-loading wasn't allowed.

They actually make traction bars for fwd cars that you drive around on the streets with. Don't get me wrong they are NOT wheely bar looking things you see on the pro cars, but simular to the traction bars for rwd vehicles with leaf springs. www.full-race.com sells traction bars that actually plant the front tires to the ground. They work, and many drag racers use them with great sucess on the track and the street. They also work well for autocross. I'm actually buying one as soon as i upgrade to better slicks.

Hybrid,
From what I know the white truck belongs to fletcher and should be in the high 10's if we are talking about the same truck. Rhonda's truck is blue and I have no clue what its running.

It's probably the same truck. I remember the white one being towed there on slicks. I just remember seeing two of them and a girl driving one of them. I remeber them going fast, and thats about all. I didn't pay to much attention to them being that I was working on my car and my buddies car. I've seen them down there before. Nice trucks do you know whats done to them? Or at least the white one?

Depends how much you know about diesel motorsports, most of what goes under the hood is kept secret since it is still a very competitive scene and the technology is in its infancy. Some people wont even tell you what they run in the 1/4 mile. I would assume he's got a set of twins, larger injectors, I think fletchers is a 12valve so he may be running on the stock pump, definately has some fueling boxes. Other than that I'm not really sure if the truck is on drugs or anything.
