ive never actually tuned for running on motor we would just make a motor pass to check everything out at first. i would guess around 8.50s or so

i ordered just some cheap shocks from the parts store through the shop today just to try out and im gonna pull the tailgate off to pull a little weight off the rear to keep the squat down a little.

once you get deep into the 11's you will hit a point where you do better with the gate on and up. atleast thats the case with me here lately. i usually dont bother taking it off.
