Just curious about how many of us drag race their trucks on a regular basis.

Edit: At the track...

Re: Drag race poll

Just fixed the question. I meant at the track. In competition (Wed night drags in my case) or test & tune.

But either way works I guess. :rotf:

No Track !
So I test and tune just about every time I drive, I can't help myself. When I hear that turbo whistling, its music to my ears.............

Re: Drag race poll

:rotf:You guys are no help at all... Maybe the question should have been how often do you go to the track. Oh well. Fun anyway. And yes I, er, get on it between trips to the track as well.

I have been racing my Syclone at the track on an annual basis. My optimistic planning has me going 2-3 times year, but life gets in the way and it never happens.

Re: Drag race poll

So my suspicion may be correct. (very small sample obviously) I may be one of a very small number of owners that drag race at the track on a regular basis.

Re: Drag race poll

I don't.

I have a track slip that came w/ the truck with numbers on it, so I will just assume that's what she will run.

I baby the truck anyways. Plus I don't wanna break something.

Re: Drag race poll

I ran mine at the track at least once a month! Planning to do the same whens its all finished!
I was even unfortunate enough to blow mine up at the track!

Been there - done that - got the t-shirt.

Ran some 11.6+ a couple of time last year on about 20 #. This year I'm intentionally running in the 12s so I don't have to worry about the motor.

Re: Drag race poll

I would like to Drag Race more than a couple times a year, but with my Current power level I've been breaking drivetrain parts. That's why I'm Building a Engine and goin 80e this winter.

Re: Drag race poll

What do you consider a regular basis to be? I use to go to the track twice a week, until it closed. Now, I don't have any where to run that doesn't make you roll through water to get to the starting line.

Re: Drag race poll

Well that's a bummer. Won't let you drive around the water box? Weird. How do the street cars race? Anyway, Sonoma runs a Wednesday night series during the spring, summer, fall, plus a few "bracket race" weekends. Sometimes 2 day sometimes only one day. often on holidays, just last July 4th for example.

I try to make all the Wed night races and most of the weekend races. On Wed one of the classes is "jackpot", $10.00 buy in. Make it to the semi's and you at least get your money back. Track adds to the pot. Make it to the final (I've done it once, very competitive) and it's winner take the pot of as often happens the two in the final split the pot.

I want to win of course but mostly for me it's my night out with the guys...

I'm planning on running it when I finish it up, just like a lot of people, I'm on jack stands currently.

Re: Drag race poll

Ran flat on its face after 2nd gear... bad ECM timing way off. Need to go back sometime to see how it runs now. First and only race at the track for me so far.

This run was against a newer dodge crewcab 1/2 ton. Guy said only mods were speed limiter turned off. Whatever. My truck is number 1006
