Wow, that is awesome man!!!

Have you ever tried launching it in 4wd? I'm just curious is all. The slicks seem to be doing a great job.

I keep it in 4hi all the way down the track. I run 8.8x28 M&H drag radials on all 4 corners. Those are the only tires I can find for 17" rims and after every race day, I check the roll out on every tire and rotate the tires accordingly which is a pain, but needed to keep the transfer case happy. The best tire pressure has been 26.5 cold psi.

Oh, I saw you doing a burnout and just figured you had it in 2wd. I thought it was kinda strange though how flat it took off for being in 2wd, now I know why.

Congrats again!

Cedar Falls had their last of the year 'Hallow Wild' event. You should have seen the mask on one of the track officals. I thought the dude was for real. lol They had trick or treat for the kid's and costumes were welcomed. Cedar Fall's is a great track and the people running it are awesome. It's always been worth the 4 hr drive to get there.

Too bad my kids are all grown up and moved out cause they could teach their old man some new tricks about computers. I might be able to email them to you and thats just a maybe...
