Alittle update, got the truck running and driving, did a gear swap, 4.10 mini spool and a perfect launch cover, had it dyno tuned. The biggest update imo is the racestars I love the stance went with a 275 60 15 rear and a 215 60 17 front ordered a new hood but 9nce it arrived it had a huge dent I was pissed

I did some reading about the mini spools and they are meant for straight line WOT play. Not practical in a daily driver. I'm leaning towards a tru-trac.

Nothing wrong with a spool on the street. You just have to use some good judgement.

Would I want it in my daily.........certainly not

Would I want it in my play truck/car......hell yeah.....whether that comes from welded spyders, mini spools or the real deal.
