Suck it!

STOMP put 899 to the rears and Jason JQmile put an amazing 972 down with project rust bucket!

4 digit numbers are right around the corner for VE pumps!!!

Congrats guys!

Hell Jake... A few years ago people said they would never brake 400.

I had a local guy that runs the local "performance" diesel shop tell me that a VE would never break 300 and only the best can get there.... That was right before my 450 run with a crap tranny.

To be honest, I have not ridden in a first gen but have heard some things from other people. They do look awesome when they are done up though....I wouldnt mind one either

These are absolutely insane numbers. Dang, those boys sure blew the doors off. Stomp laid down 702, (I think) last year in Vegas, (or was it this year?! ) so he had a big jump, but Jason was at 560-odd IIRC when he last hit the rollers, so he about landed on the moon! Wow, that's awesome.

All those 1st Gen's running P pumps needn't have bothered.
