SlowerThanYou Posted March 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Thanks again guys for the thoughts & well wishes! I have a broken collar bone. Plus, a badly bruised ego/old man body & road rash to go along with it. Trying to get the motor in another chassis for Bakersfield, but depends on my Dr. appointments.

SlowerThanYou Posted March 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Here's the latest update with testing the new DMX motor. The motor is going into a 90" Black Label rigid chassis. The chassis is about 30 lbs. lighter than our stock frame. We will be running 84" RO 16 paddle 2 layer Kevlar staggered Rippers. This should make for some better times than our stock frame set-up.

trickedcarbine Posted March 19, 2013 Report Share Posted March 19, 2013 You will be faster in the rigid. Just fate slapping you in the face for trying to run to fast in a stock chassis with out additional modification. Don't get to fat sitting around and healing up. Best of luck.

Just fate slapping you in the face for trying to run to fast in a stock chassis with out additional modification. Don't get to fat sitting around and healing up. Best of luck. The rigid is temporary. The motor is going back into the stock chassis. We have done mods to make this thing work & will continue to R&D the set-up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlowerThanYou Posted March 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 No choice, NHRA requires a stock chassis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
