Practice your launching. If you guys have never raced the 1/4 mile show up early, get inspected and watch a few runs before going out to stage. If you don't have drag slicks, drive around the water box. Most importantly, have fun.

Here is a 2500 6.0 dong a 0-60 run.

Put your spares in the bed and when you get there take 'em out. Every bit counts! Have a 1/4 tank or less too. Have fun, I'd like to see the videos.

Alright guys wow what a great night last nite. We got in 3 runs, hendrixx has the videos, sadly i think his friend didnt get the 2nd round because we got up there so fast, we bearly had a 10 min break and our 2nd run was worse then the first. My injector was messing up and having miss firing before i got there i stopped an an advance was going to switch out the spark plug again along with fuel injector cleaner but they didnt have the same plug so i just poured in the cleaner but it didnt get in until i stopped on the way home for more fuel i guess it was floating on top. Our first round he had 16.3 at 82mph and i had 16.8 at 80. second round was 16.5 i believe and i had 17 even. the last round was the worse on my part. all 3 rounds i dragged diff the last one i tryed 4 hi and no powerbraking my reaction was worse and my tires were spining, im not sure if u ca tell in the video. i had my camera glasses on i gotta check them to makesure there decent cuz i was throwing them in a rush they bearly gave u a heads up when u were next. so far on my ride home the injector seemed to get better and less missfiring im hoping its working or im visting the dealer... ehehh i cant wait to watch the videos. You all going to like the first round lol..
