Default Question:

Why are there not more 6.0's at the pulls? Just a question.

Good question. The 6.0 has issues, just like the Dodges and the D'max.
We have some tough tracks to pull on and it take's a lot of set-up and power to win.
The Ford's have the dreded front-end shake (D'max Tow-in) and the Dodges have a real problem creating enough wheel speed to get the sled moving at half track (except you, Mike) good job Mike, winning at the last pull. I have never figured out how Mike Peters pull's so well. He's got a set-up.

Forget Horsepower and putting a lot of power adders on your truck.

Work on the cheap stuff...........Tire pressure, weight distribution, gear selection, and don't forget to pick a good pull spot on the track.

If you can hook to the sled and drive your truck to the best spot's on the track, you can add feet to your pull.

Spend more time, track side. Take notes..........Damn, It ain't that complicated.

2 cents, from a has been puller.
