Good day at Sac Drags

AAYYYYYY.....It was a good day at the drags.....Looked like it was agonna rain...An then cleared up cloudy, and became a dry drizzle(?)

We had something like....14 trucks show up, and always got our own lane, so we got to race each other....

Ian(Treeman), Greg (cumminzpower), Tom(TomGolden). Bill (drivesmopars) Ray(torqusmaximus) And a bunch of others, all joined in...
Greg had a little trans problem, but was still putting out some power. You could hear toms turbo spooling all the way down the track. Bill was doing great with that dually...Watching all 4 back tires smoke is a big treat...Ian's truck showed up with a bunch more goodies...(YOU DOG!!!!

)...Jake had a 2WD he was having some serious traction problems with...If you look at Jakes back wheels, there all fuzzy cuz they were spinnnnnnng!!!
We did get to watch a new Ford Lightning get 1/3 down the track, and just start smokin' like the drain plug was missing..l.Then BOOM!!!the entire underneath was on fire!!!!

Glad it wasn't my truck...

Sorry if this was lenghty...BTW, the Ford, and Chevy camp were conspicious in their absense...(Brian)
