>Well just got back from Denver and the Truck Fest. Can't believe that they
stick our DAKs up against mini trucks for showing--we need to get our own
catagory. Well on to the story, I ran twice down the strip. My reaction
times weren't too bad for not having run in 20 years.
  The first pass was: R/T--.735
                                  1/4mi--17.336 MPH--80.81
 2nd pass was:R/T--635
                          1/4mi--17.360 MPH--78.78
The 2nd pass I lost traction just off the line and I know I could of beat my
first run. Does anybody know what this figures out to at lower altitudes for
1/4 times and MPH?
>David Thede I tried to find you but with all that was going on couldn't,
hope you had as much fun as I did. The show also had at it "THE WORLDS
FASTEST DAKOTA"-- jet engined powered and ran the 1/4 in 7 sec. flat at 233
MPH
