Hookin chains with a buddy in the grass!!!

[CumminsCrazed]

Well guys, just like the title states, this afternoon i hooked chains with a buddy of mine in his back yard. He has a late 70s F250 ford with a pretty modded up 460 BBF. He has aftermarket cam, heads, intake, carb, ignition etc. I personally have NO idea how to pull with my 6 spd against anyone and he had a HUGE advantage over me being a built auto so he got me on almost every start, if anyone has suggestions on how i can better my pulling with other trucks let me know as i felt like i could have done MUCH better. Anyway, i have about 4 videos, the first one was in normal video mode and after that my buddy accidentally switched it to compact video mode so the last 3 videos will be fairly grainy but youll get the idea.

Heres the videos, in order

Let me know what you think and PLEASE give me input on how i can better myself next time i hook up to anyone!!!

Hmm, looks like some limited slip diffs would have helped you. It's a simple traction issue, not a power issue. Even with that built 460, you should trump him in ANY power war. You forget the power and torque potential in that 5.9.

Throw some eatons in there and you will drag his *** all over this country!!

i know, that was my main issue, no traction

Hahahaha, with all due respect, it seemed very hillbillish when I saw the video. It did seem like traction was the issue though.

this is the first time ive ever seen a video like that lol

[Brandon1]

Well that may be hillbillyish, but that is more fun than anything happening in the city.

Try it, you'll love it.

I live in the city, but my wife is from a small town outside of Ft. Worth. I've seen some of the craziest stuff over there, always something going on like a tractor pull. Awesome!

it is indeed fun, and just so all you boys are happy with me, i did bathe my rig after i got done out there and she is shining like new this morning all tucked away in the garage.......i plan on some pics for here this afternoon

[BlueLibby04]

hhahaha, that was awesome! Looked to me like you all were kinda even. Hard to tell but he may of had better tires for the situation since he did get you on the start sometimes. I wouldnt think that truck would weigh more than a diesel ram so weight is the issue nor is torque.

Did you have you truck in 4low or just 4high?

Cool ! Should put them in the street.

I had an old boss that got cut off flagrantly one day in a walmart parking lot. He decided to "hook chains" with his silverado and a honda civic. And he decided to wait until the person went into the store. And his truck won successfully pulling the honda into the traffic lane of the parking lot. Who would have thought?

These videos make me wish I still had my 89 F250. It had the BIG 7.5 460. I miss her so much.

Btw make sure the chains are in good condition. You don’t want them to break on you. It could be a mess.
