i dont know how good your guy's trucks are...but for me, with stuff in sig, i floor it off the line everytime and never any tire chirp or loss of traction. maybe my truck is just weak... my opinion, stall up a 1300 or so and floor it when you see the third yellow light comes on. remember to roll up windows and turn off a/c...

I cant hook for **** even with the tires down to 15psi an off the line @ 1000rpms as soon as i let off the brake im spinning. Thats with a 12bolt posi an some 15x10 wheels an wide tires. But street tires suck *** for grip anyways Once i get some slicks ill see the 13's or mabey if i get the motor tuned...
