This was our first pull and white did great and I really enjoyed myself too. Did not get a full pull but pretty good for the first try.

Second pull was better but just a few feet shy still.

This is where I ended up on the last pull.

Cool pix and video 98... I don't have the guts to pull with my truck, though it might be fun. I need to take the Mrs. to a tractor/truck pull this year.

You need to get some blocks under the rear end, Some pulling rules say they can't be blocked solid but if you have solid blocks with about an inch if gap that works.:smart:Your front tires look like they are almost ready to come off the ground, not good at all when pulling. Just by putting blocks in place of your rear bump stops would have got you another 50 feet probably.The crowd looks to be a bit thin there.

Ive seen some guys pin their rear axle to prevent it from hopping, is that not legal in the stock classes?

I think by pinning you are referring to the blocks between the frame and axle where the bump stops are, most will allow blocks in the stock class as long as there is an inch of travel before they contact. Dodge rigs don't have a problem with suspension hop like some do but where hop originates is through tire wrap from under inflated tires, need to keep the rears aired up to about max pressure to keep from getting tire induced hop started, also ladder or traction bars help keep spring wrap under control that causes wheel hop if you have enogh power and torque to get it started as well.

Yes, blocking the rear would help a bit. My buddy made some that he just uses tractor pins to put them in with when he pulls. I got 6 88 pound tractor weights I need to figure out how to mount on the front too.

First hook with the p-pump, hoped to do better but the track was really loose. Still had a good turn out and got to see alot of trucks

Leaving a nice little cloud behind...

It was a crummy pull, the chain was not tight and when I took off it jerked and nearly stopped me. Next pull I will have my traction bars mounted and axle stops in.
