Occasionally I pull my truck, this year I think it's more the dedicated hauler then anything.

Other work stock trucks that I will be involved with will be:
2008 cc/sb F250. 6.4/auto
2001 ec/lb Ram 2500 24v/auto

And depending on scheduling maybe attending some 2.6 class stuff with friends.
2000 ec/lb F250. 7.3/auto.
2007 cc/sb Ram 2500 5.9/auto.

I did it for a couple years. Sold most of my pulling stuff over the last year. I won one pull and thats what I wanted to do and I got tired of putting more money in the truck to stay competitive.

Nice! We've been to a couple but they were pretty much test and tunes for us so i didnt even bother recording any of it. First pull with our sled is sat so i'll be sure to video it!

I do have a video of our dyno run tho... should see if i can find it

His brother is the only one pulling out of the two of them, several of their other friends pull though just their trucks aren't done yet.
