Hey everybody! Been a while since our last update! I've decided to reorganize the page, make it a bit more...put together. Also we are going racing again in a few weeks after being down for new tires. When we go I am going to get some video and put it up on here, because that is just a bit too lacking on our page! I also have a few more pics to put up from a pro photographer that we had shoot the truck.
here's a couple pics of our new drag wing made by Strangefab of Tucson Arizona! if you are in the area and need fabrication done, call mark, he is not only cooler than like everyone, he is the best fabricator ive ever met.
and here is the final product. ill make sure i snap some pics of it while its in the carshow tomorrow night
heres the new drag wing and the layout of the new paintjob! (the rising sun will be in house of kolors Burple...)
new update! after years of abuse, we are finally rebuilding the front end of the pickup. there was cracked and ruined bondo everywhere, so we are glad to get rid of it and replace it with new stuff. just got it all smoothed out tonight (forgot to get a picture of it when i was done). we also built a new lip for it, and we got it mounted and primed tonight. now its out to the track tomorrow! we are lookin for a record run too. :D

This is my favorite view of the truck, i think it looks so mean
The ladder bar suspension, part of the cage, the tubs etc
The MSD DIS6, safc, and the ice water coolant tank for the intercooler
The heart and soul of the truck, hopefully it will be purged of imperfections soon! you can see the water2air sorry the spark plug cover is off, you can tell we are working on it, check the HKS BOV!
