It was good talking to you Flaco...me and my two brothers were helping push ur truck to the line on the pass where you blew the tires through the 1/4 mile. That **** looked insane bro....I got a shitty cell phone vid. I'll post just for the hell of it. Can't wait to see it go again in March.

Flaco, we got some ok pics crossing the traps on your 192+pass. I'll post em up in a bit. Didn't turn out as good as I would have liked, needed to zoom in a little more.

Look at the headwind pressing against the one mile marker. Crazy conditions, probably had an extra few mph in it. Nice run, we loved watching it!

It's to prevent drag or lift if air gets under hood
