I know my truck running straight I can be going about 45 mph. and stomp it to the floor and can break them loose and hang it out lil sideways. Hahaa I did about 2 weeks ago with guy in SRT-10 got all over my back bumper while I was cruising around, after that he when on about his business. It will bark third when I'm on it around 80-85.

I could do donuts if I did not have so much wheel hop. That will be fixed soon.

wow. maybe i should check if my engine is acutally 4.3 instead of 5.3 cause anything above like 2 mph on dry i cant break tires loose. on a bad day i cant even break loose from a stop. hopefully the tune in the mail will help with this.

I don't think I can ever break the tires loose going straight, unless there is a slight incline. Maybe its the 3.42s.
