This post has been whored up enough by myself and others....I will however state this in public.....

With the set up you have, airbags and all your truck will run no quicker than mid 13's at a GOOD track. I have been there and dont that. I am not saying that you were not told that, or that you did not build the truck to run that. I am simply saying that I have tried everything you have done and did not come close to 12's. End of story. Not baggin, not flaming, just stateing the facts. Hope to see you at the track someday! Could be fun, beers are on me.

try geting some answers out of the clowns at whipple and let us know how happy you are then.

lets talk about c3c5 runing some 10's and not ruin this post with garbage
Why, are you mad because he's going to do it before you? J/K

I wish someone would hurry up and do it. Were all sitting on the edge of our seats waiting.

That was my same point. Dont get me wrong your truck looks pimp. Your draggn frame and rockn 22's both awesome! But you cant have your cake and eat it too... with those bags and stuff its so much harder for you to hit 12s, which I think was the point of this ...

Intro, your trucks F'in sweet! Ever thought about pulling the insulation under the hood and doing some custom paint details under there to compliment the Blingin Radix?

BTW, someone run 10s already.

He obviously has no geniune interest in his truck, he just throws it at some performances places and they do what they have to and he gets it back.
I still don't know why he got all mad, I just know that Brian didn't run no 12's and HE SELLS the Radix. He also has the 6.0 with the Radix and a fully built 60E and he didn't make it half way down the track.
This clown IntroWheels says he has a stock tranny with a few beefed up parts in it. No way will that make it down the track on slicks....without slicks...he won't get any traction to make 13s...

I think the closest any of us has come to having our cake and eating it too is a 5100lb C3, AWD, on 22s running 11 flat, and maybe a high 10. If thats possible, anything is possible.
