Yeah, my friends car runs 10.90's@121, so I know it will run. The big MPH comes from the spray thru 2nd and 3rd. It was a 3650lb car that only bested a 1.83 60' time. It was a pooch at of the hole. Did you run those times with your truck?

Yes sir. 4500 lb race weight. Same setup as the 12.47 in sig. Only difference was slicks and the aid of a 2-step.

His is not as bad as mine (traction).... Smoke's Truck is a Q/C auto/trans.
Only the R/C comes with the six/speed and NO traction!

Yes, but you have to pay extra for the no traction option.
