But then you also have a slow truck... Haha

Like someone already said, wen you're making race car power pickup truck suspension isn't gona cut it. You need good shocks, a properly setup rear end ad some good tires at the very minimum

its not to bad, but i had all the parts and the 4x4 frame ready to go, yes i noticed a power loss, especially down low, i need to up the stall. I think as long as you run a decent stall youll be happy. Nitrous really helps outta the gate also
