2004SSS, do you run the straps all the time or only at the track?

The first post would answer that as a no. The straps stay on all the time, but are only tightened at the strip.

Didn't want to correct you at the track but chase holds the ECSB record if I'm not mistaken...just a little more and you'll be there too Bill!

not for a 5.3 4x4 (ok he's AWD and faster) he doesn't

So these straps are working, cool. I need a set. Hook a brother up!

I thought dusty ran his 11.41 @ 119 with a LQ4?
Anyways, I think those would definitely help keep your front end down at the light.
