This should help

It made it maybe a third of the way? I was only planning on pulling the sled 5 feet. Got the entire crowd cheering when I pulled on the track, then after it blew, got a standing ovation! More people cheered(or laughed) for us than the Big Bad Dodge pull truck. Just awesome. Friends got video but I'll have to round it up. And the 150-300 shot of nitrous caused a nice explosion and fire.


P.s. They didnt even tech anyone this year, you could have had a rocket in the back window and it would have been let thru.

Next year we're building a wheel stander for the crowd


So the massive weight over the rear end blew through the trex :homer:

Awaiting our turn :laughing:
