Nice run. Looks like you could probably get more out of it.

I bet the driver in the second video had to change his pants when he was done- scary **** there...

well for those of you that have launched in 4low you can relate to that video. Im not sure if that what he did or not....i actually think it was 4hi...he puts out a lot of power...he had drag radials on all 4 corners. when he hooked he was low 12's and that thing is heavy. power everything!

i also do 4hi, and the truck does jump alittle. but it looks like the truck pulls to the right and he jerks left and then it crazy after that.

My truck seems to pull much harder in 2wd......its just a lot easier to launch in 4hi with my stall especially on the street. At the track however i ran consistently 14.7 the entire day (in 4hi) I couldn't get it to hook in 2wd but realized even though i spun like crazy through the 60' i was still trapping the same speed. So my thought process was i had to be getting more power to the wheels in 2wd....anyhow i finally got one to hook feathering it out of the hole and pulled 14.52..on a hot lap! I can tell you from my experience my truck seems to pull harder in 2wd.
