I don't have a video of my 10 sec run, but have two to share that are close from my June and July track testing

This first one is right after my 10 sec run and I tried to step it up a little more. First I brought the launch RPMs up and then used the tranny brake for the launch instead of using the line lock. What happened is, she hit so hard it blew the track compound right off the track causing me to smoke the tires and go into the rev limiter (the popping sound.) In turn this thru the supper charger belt at about half track. You can hear me get out of it about 3/4 track and can see the belt laying on the track at the end of the video. I was trying to go faster and it bit me in the butt.

Here's my next time at the track where I was to low on the RPMs at launch and the motor was loaded up from street cruising the week before. Still not bad for a 4500 pound truck to run 11.09 sec in the quarter.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iY9d0xEg26E
 
Nice job Dave! :clap:

Yea, just wish I could go track testing now but my Ram is still broke down. The dealer screwed up the transmission when they worked on the body back in July. It's still not right and I won't accept it. I'm sure they blew something out then they were welding on the truck. I just waited 6 weeks for the torque converter and valve body to be replaced and it's still not right!!
