I RAN A 13.1@102 STREET TRIM ON 22'S WITH 3.92 GEARS IN 88* TEMP +2100 D.A AND 75% HUMIDITY. SO NOW THAT I HAVE 4.56 I THINK I CAN HIT 12'S IN THIS HEAT ON 22'S IF I CAN GET TRACTION

head will keep him off even on slicks from a dig. from a roll you will need that 100 shot to really kill him from a roll...

how much does your truck weigh? i believe harley only weigh like in the low 5000lb range. ill find out for sure

I don't think that the 4x4 will switch out until you let off of the gas, even if you hit the switch, but I'm not 100% sure. How does 4x4 kill your top end? You're using the same engine and gears, just turning the front wheels also...does the transfer case rob that much power? What about the AWD SS's, they don't seem to have a problem with top end? Not trying to argue, just want to know find out as I plan to run in 4x4 (have been practicing 4x4 launches when the opportunity presents itself, surprised that I haven't launched my wounded front diff yet)

well idk how it kills my top end.. and when i say my truck died when it shifted to 3rd its more like the harleys top end was better.. i mean my truck feels great on the top end but he was just coming up quick.. and yea 4wheel lauches r great.. i havent had any of my friends trucks jump on me on take off..
