At least until I went across the scales today. 6,600 plus as run. Anybody got a good diet plan?

No doubt. But my tuner will be in cab next run, and he's a big boy 250 or so. That was with toolbox, carseat, AR and a couple hundred rounds, plus tools and cooler. Just the required STUFF.

And saddle bags full of ratchet straps, logging chains, and bug spray. No wonder I hooked GOOD.

I went on the '' AK " diet plan. - skid plates, rear seat, spare tire gone,jack,nothing on or in bed.

As a side note i ran .24 tenths slower when i gave my buddy( 190 lbs) a ride down the track, they told me to let off at the 1/8 mile but i kept on going, and just left out the exit !

I thought you guys just bathed in pure DEET. At lease your experimental aircraft sized mosquitoes only get exposed skin. If you've ever had chiggers you know what I mean.

Dunno how factual it is. But ive always heard every 100 lbs is a 1/10 of a second. Im sure theres a limit to this but im guessing if your over 3500 or 4000lbs theres some truth to it.
