I see a picture of this on Roe's site but I don't rmember hearing anything about it. I know the top mount is out their. Anyone have any first hand info on it, how does it compare to the top mount????
 
It was a custom job. I believe one of the members here has it. It, obviously from the pic, was a yellow fever edition. Roe decided, I think partly from overwhelming response, to go with the top mount version for regular production.
 
the side mount was a pain in the ass according to Sean Roe. The top mount worked better and was easier/cheaper to install. The side mount just looked cooler to me.....Still waiting on Prof to go to the track so we can see if an equally modded Paxton truck is faster or not......

I say Prof and Me and Tim Hoover (need4Speed) all go to Bradenton and runem and see how we all do. Maybe Rice Eater and 2nd Chance will follow me over there and well have 5 or 6 of us....that would be cool!

Roy is one hell of a guy, but I doubt he'll drive in all the way from his new place in Chicago unless he decides to stay a while :D

Scott and I were just talking about trying to set up a GTG in either Orlando or Bradenton to get ALL the Florida/Southern Georgia boys together :rock:
 
Oh yeah Prof moved......Smokin dem tweeds!hehehe.....Im down perm dizzle!! Lets get together at Bradenton not this weekend but next..Ill ahve my truck and all of the True Performance boys will be there....TT Ram srt10 QC, Tim Need4speed) in his Paxton'd monster 718 RWHP, Sean from True has a high ten sec Mustang (300 shot)......that would be fun! We can rent that whole track for 1500 bucks for a night!

Heehee...I wish him the best but, Cal-tracs or not, Prof AIN'T gonna hook up for crap with that Torque Curve unless he gets some sticky tires/slicks!
JMHO of course.;)


If I'm wrong and he can hook, I'll gladly retract the above statement.:D

I threw my cal-tracs on today.
And....??:dontknow:


Do you have to adjust those things when you go to the track, and then re-adjust for the street? Or just set them up once and forget them?:confused:

Yeah meee too! Blake...since it was your idea....start a GTG thread on it! If I get beat by all you S/C guys I'll be tempted to put int the 175 or 200 jets!

Hook up? Why hook up? My sc is just to impress the kids at the high school...I'm too old to go fast, not too old to get a twinkle in my eye around short skirts!

Am trying to get enough time away from unpacking boxes from the move, to schedule a trip to see Gary and plan some sort of strategy for traction...got lots of go, not much of it pushing the truck...my Dad always said that I was fast...just too long in one place...he was the guy who said beer goes bad in the refrig over night...

I like the way your Dad thinks! (thought):eek:

Great Idea! But I think I will be snowed in...But I just am so happy that you are up and running...be sure to have someone video the runs...I really want you to lay down a 10 something....better hurry, 1fast400 will be doing his best to beat you to it!

Just adding to what every one else has said...I think the yellow SRT 10 that Roe put the side mount on is in New Jersey...it was really built more as a show/promotion vehicle...doubt that it will ever see a strip or dyno.
