The Sleepiest Sleeper Truck Ever
From most outward appearances, this Chevy C10 pickup is a totally crusty heap, much abused by its uncaring owner. That impression is very, very wrong. Would you believe this thing runs 12.3 second quarter-miles?

Simple formula here, take a beat up old C10 pickup, drop a snarling 502 cubic inch big block under the hood and feed it a nose full of nitrous, back it with an all-drag-racing driveline, reinforce the chassis, put some huge Hoosier drag slicks on the back, and a truck cap and a Pizza delivery sign on the top and go racing. Oh, we forgot to add, make sure it has a sweet train horn.

RE: The Sleepiest Sleeper Truck Ever
Som b*tch needs positive traction, but I have to say that is some talent in the drivers seat. FFS he's only one tire at the beginning.

Earlier this week my work partner was talking a bout diesel drag racing.

ANd then this come up, (I some time spend a lot of time here)

So I looked up an old drag way that used to advertise a lot and saw that they are still going strong. Only ten bucks for admission as a spectator. With the max prize of $1500.00

To be honest I a little interested in a new hobby.
