Anyone on here drag race a pickup?? Mostly curious about gas powered 70s & 80s trucks... Pics,details and ETs?? Thanks

Do a search bunch of Truck racers on here

Yes I bracket race my original owner 92 D150, 5.2 Magnum, 518, 4.10 sure grip runs low 15s mph in the high 80s with 2.00 60fts

1979 Lil Red - 416 small block stroker - stock leaf rear end with a trak-lok differential stock 3.55 gears, turboaction trans and 3500 stall and 275/60-15 drag radials - Ran 13.90's all day.

Looked just like any other Lil Red though...

'83 D150 - nothing special. Just a cast crank motor home 440. Best so far is a 7.57 @ 90 in the 1/8th at 3900lb

Newer than you're asking about but a lot of dakotas get raced. A set of cal tracks, good shocks and slicks and guys are getting off the line hard, and running 10s and 11s relatively easy

My old 87 long bed 360 powered truck with 3.21 gears,daily driven ran 13.80's 102mph,stock converter and no traction killed the ets. My 1993 Dakota pump gas small block street truck should run 10's on motor and better with a little n2o. I do not run calracs on anything,but do have track experience to determine what works and for what cost.

Here is my 76 with a 505 in it. Hoping to be in the low 11s into the 10's with it.

KDY, It looks pretty special to me. That's a nice truck!

You have a lot of engineering going on there...my Ramcharger came with a 360 that ran pretty good...if I had not taken it all apart to put a built 440 in it, I could have been racing already

I`ve always liked the Gasser look on Barnyard Viper, so cool !

my 65 440 12.75 1/4 mile

89` leaving it in drive ran 17`s with a 360 just unhook it from the trailer still have the tools, oils and fuel tied down in the back hehe , now my 90 witch looks the same like to lower it and switch to a 5.9 magnum

Thanks! It's a work in progress. I'm in the process of a cam swap now - hope it will go some 7.3xs in good weather, driving it to the track and back of course.

Exactly what I thought.
