And no way is there 800 pounds difference between your truck and mine. My single cab is a healthy 5000-5100 pounds with my big boned *** driving.

u dont daily drive on slicks... u can buy some 17s and put slicks on them.. yea i can do heads up not a problem... but its not fair cuz i dont grip from a dead stop at all.... if u put slicks we both grip then its fair... and ur truck is not 5100.. mine is at 5300 on the scale.. and i ment 800 difference from mine compared to a 2wd silverado..

Look up the weight of a rcsb 5.7 tundra. And the smallest rim I can use is an 18". And I don't know if you noticed but I have crappy traction as well.

No excuses just giving him a hard time. Lol. I just think 2wd vs 2wd with 2 traction lacking vehicles of similar weight and hp would be a fair race. I have no desire to buy new tires ATM and no place to store them.

Eric sorry I forgot to call you back after work.
