 It is the ultimate make it as simple as being a performance, our presenting sponsor for this weekend's event. Of course, they're racing in the Dodge Direct Connection Shootout and it'll be shown on that car. What's up Mopar Fam? So just want to give you guys a quick update. We've made some passes, Frostbite seems to be working so far, we're just having some track hooking issues with trying to launch off the Transbrake, that's not going so well forced today so we've been having to turn it way down on the two step, but Zorro and Storm are doing really good so we've made two passes now in our qualifying actual runs and Zorro ran, first pass out it ran a $12.95 so we ran a $12.95 on Zorro and we're shooting for the 13th second class and to run that $12.95 we took the rear seat out, we took the passenger seat out, we took the rear back rest out along with a spare tire in the truck. We just went up, my son made another pass in it and this last pass it went what? $12.95 at $105. Yeah, so it ended up doing basically another $12.95 spinning, spun a little bit, mowed an hour almost one mile an hour I think it was like .76 higher so the car's going a little too quick so now we're playing the weight game guys so we put the back seat back in, we took one of the back tires, the full size back tire, street tire we put in the truck, adding weight to it, we took some more air out of the rear tires trying to slow it down some because we need this car to run like a 13-1 or maybe a little less to be real competitive in that 13-0 bracket. Now Storm, this is absolutely stupid in saying guys, Storm is a fat pig, right? So today Storm ran a $12.80 today in the first initial run so we took that $12.80 and we said okay it's going too fast we're trying to slow it down to go 13s just like my son's we're trying to do both cars, truck and the car we're trying to run 13s in so they're fighting each other they're battling and it's like right there guys. So on Storm we needed to go up two numbers so we added in the back on this last past Storm just did, we put the tailgate back on the truck, we added two full size tires in the back seat in the floor and the truck, what did it run Ryan? 13-1-4 so it ran a 13-1 putting all that crap in the truck and with his two passes we got in right now he's still too fast so we have to slow the truck down some more plus it's cooling off so now we're fighting even better conditions of trying to go faster. So this is what we were resorted to guys, look at this, this is just stupid. So now we have three, count them three full size tires in the back, we have two, count them not one but two full size three ton steel not aluminum jacks that are heavy as hell in this truck right now to try to slow it down another two numbers so that we can get on that 13-0. So wish us luck guys, frostbite I'll show you the time slots we got because we finally made it, that I could I mean say was decent but definitely nothing nothing for what frostbite is known for but let me see here let me get the slips so my first qualifying pass because like I said we normally leave on like 4,000 rpm on the trans brake and the two step we tried that in our practice run it annihilated the tires so I knew we weren't going to be able to do that so I turned down the two step to 2,000 I've never launched it that low so we launched it that low and normally I can hit 1,3, 1,4,0 60 foot and you can see we had a 150, 60 foot but we still ran a 10, 25 and 130 I was I was happy with that you know the pike didn't blow off and we went down the track we made a pass and it did pretty good 10, 25 and the DA at that time it was around 15, 1700 I think somewhere in there so I was happy with that next pass up which was my first qualifying run we didn't do so good I tried to turn the two step up a little bit and we went up 500 rpm so we went to 2,500 rpm to see if it would hook because obviously we're trying to shoot for the 10,0 bracket right and even at 2,500 rpm guys that 500 more rpm it annihilated the tires you can see the 60 foot was 166 and we ran a 10,73 because it spun now I know you're going to say why was a mile an hour to two whole mile an hour and some change faster than the other pass well I had to bottle in the truck on that one and as soon as the tires spun already had to bottle on because I was trying to play a guessing games if we spend I was trying to stay in the game you know so I had to bottle on with a 50 jet in it and as soon as the tires hook I flipped the switch and we ran it out the back door on the bottle yeah I know you guys is nice and for but yeah we ran it out the back door on the bottle we still ran a 10,73 you know spinning out of the hole but it trapped over an extra two mile an hour which is pretty stupid for the same day same air kind of situation so I can tell you right now you know in the wintertime if we did that we would probably gain an extra two three mile an hour obviously which would put it you know definitely into the nines but now that we ran that 10,76 you know even if I came out and I ran a 10,0 right now there's no way I'm sure there's someone out there's gonna have a much more stacked set of time slips for the 10,0 bracket so I think we're just gonna go out I'm gonna turn the two step back down I'm gonna try to have it just hook again like it did on 2,000 rpm and if it hooks I'm thinking about just spraying it and you know see see what happens see if I can run a 10,0 maybe a 999 in this in this weather worst case I don't know if we're fast enough I haven't really watched these other cars but there is a possibility of the quick eight I could be selected into the Hemi quick eight group again there's a lot of demons and a lot of hillcats out here and they're fast so not sure if we are even comparing to those guys but we're no sitting duck that's for sure so yeah that was kind of my plan was just running this next pass out for fun and and see what happens or I could gamble I could run it out halfway and just let let out coast rest of track and see what kind of number it gambles in and maybe I get lucky and win like the 13-14 bracket or something you know how this works as it takes your three passes and it averages the three out and whatever that averages that is your bracket that you're gonna be in and as long as you got the fastest pass in that bracket then you're a winner so that's pretty much it guys so other than that that's that's what we're doing we got one more to do storm and Zorro is definitely clenching and it's gonna be a battle so I'm interested interested to see what happens I I want somebody in this group right now to win something so I really hope one of them pulls it off and maybe we as loud and maybe we can make a miracle happen with frostbite or something but at least we're making licks down the track again guys so stay tuned we'll keep you informed y'all have a blessed day we'll see on the next
