i was there with Thunder last night and on saturday at the beach. when he gets that truck dialed in, its gonna be nice. once the tuning issue is in control then he should have some really nice time slips.

Sounds awesome for the lack of tunning you've got. Should run really nice when you get that done.

those are decent times shifting with an auto. anyone ever jump 2nd gear? i always miss it when im shifting. i noticed they seemed to correct it some in the later models (04). not as easy to do. just my opinion

actually I lost about a tenth on my sixty foots.
went from running 2.09's to anywhere from a 2.13 to a 2.18.
I was getting some bad wheel hop off the line.
more than I usually did, before the cam swap.
guess I really need to get those ladder bars finished up and put on
I found out last night also that with 11lbs of air, and stalling up to 2,000rpms I could lite the tires up going through first gear and into second. :eek2
(never been able to do that before, and having to shift it manually too.)
