That was one thing that stood out when I talked to James as well...It's nice
to see how nice your two were...Saturday when my girlfriend and I were
cruising Brice one of the R/T owner's wives yelled at me that my truck was a
generic V6...funny b/c I did a huge burnout...Latter I found out from
someone else that his R/T is about a POS. His best time was 16.1 funny b/c
my best was 16.8 and that was with terrible light and the hottest/Humid day!
I know my truck will run 16.5 or 16.6
oh, I'll keep you guys informed...you can also check out my website to see
the progress...hopefully next year I'll have some more mods...

I know what you mean Tim, unfortunately I've met some of those ppl myself,
who look down on other Dakotas, doesn't make any sense to me. Maybe it's
because I started with the DML when I had my '93, but I like all Dakotas, I
just think they're an awesome truck, whether it's a GenII or GenIII, 4x2 or
4x4, doesn't matter, love 'em all. I'll wave to other Dak owners on the
road, and most of them just look at me like I'm crazy, but every now and
again I'll pass someone that's on the same wavelength. Did you see that
huge GenII 4x4 on Brice with the solid axle conversion, had to be running
36's or 38's, that thing was sweet. It was really nice to see that many
Dakotas running around. Hopefully I'll make both Carlisle and the Nats
again next year, if you get those wheels finished before them you'll have to
post some pics for us.
