Yeah, it definitely gets off the line pretty good. I'm ecstatic with what it's putting down with such a mild setup (compared to a lot of guys on here, anyway), I really did not expect 13s. Plus, I still get over 16 mpg at 75 mph with the A/C on.

And I'm running 3.73s with 265/75/16s. I'll be going to a 30" tall tire next summer. Before anyone says it, I'm not re-gearing. I wouldn't want anything lower (higher numerically) than 4.10s, and the difference between 3.73s and 4.10s isn't NEARLY enough to justify the cost. This thing is still my DD, and will be for the next few years, so I need to be able to keep my highway mileage reasonable.

Go to at least a 28" tire for the track. Hell, you'd probably do even better with 26" tires with 3.73 gears. What rpm are you crossing the finish? You should have a look at an rpm calculator.

Congrats man. That pig is running strong. Cold weather, you will run better. I also say that adding a 26'' tire will net you better times...
