Suspension has caltracs, cheap shocks from autozone w coil around them, and 15x10 wheel with 29.5 tall slick. Suspension pretty much mirrors the Lil Sis and we all know how good that truck runs and that Flaco is a smart guy.

When the prestage lights turned on I pressed both brakes and gas as hard as I could and let go when the truck moved forward. I could not replicate the 60ft again cause the prep wasn't good since it was TNT and not a racing event and they only sprayed vht once.
I'd like to have a PT.net meet at Penwell. The new owner has transformed that place into a VERY nice track. When does DTR open up?

That would be nice since it's an outlaw track and they understand that not everyone wants to put a rollbar to run below and 11.5. There were alot of street cars running below that with no problems. DTR opens up Friday with new owners so we will see how the 1/8 mile track compares.
