It's not lol people who know racing know how hard it is to drop more than half a second from the ET this truck is running. If it was easy to run 9s everyone would be doing it.

Right, when you get down to those times there is a world of difference between even a few tenths, but damn that thing gets down the track for a stock bottom end 5.3, great job.

It has 90/10 lakewoods in the front in stock location and 50/50 in the rear with cal tracs. I personnally would prefer a 4 link set up like the one on my truck but the owner is not ready for that yet.

I know what fast cost, how much more power is needed to go what, but just seems strange to me thats all. I am not ignorant to what it takes to do what.. He must have a monster 5.3 thats all.. Quit impressive for a 5.3 to run that time, thats is all. Congrats

Thanks. And i understand if people are skeptic.

I know it's hard to believe but for what it's worth i would not lie about the set up. I've never done that and never will. Not even on the size of shot. Im sure that if someone duplicated the set up and the tune they would net similar results.
