Heading to the track this afternoon!!
Well, this time I have a different game plan for the track. I pulled off the heavy *** 305-50-20's and threw on the polished aluminum 16's with some 245-70-16 tire I got for free. These are almost 3" shorter than my other wheels and alot lighter. Im also gonna run in 4wd for some hard boost launches. Last time I hit the track was with the big wheels and running in 2wd. with a best of 14.0 , I think I should hit 13's pretty easy this time. The truck is stupid now with the small tires, soon as i get into boost it just roasts the tires and kicks the truck side ways down the street. I post up later tonight on my new times. wish me luck!

Our track is at 5800 ft. and its hot today 90-95 and muggy.
, I also put a T from my wipers and a spray bar on my intercooler, man it soaks that thing! I'll be happy with mid 13's but hopefully better. I'll let everyne know how it goes.
