lol. thats what is always stated. I know for a fact my 4.8 smokes the 98 I had, and I had more stuff done to the 98 with a 350. And about the little tires, I always laugh at how my truck looks with them to, but you cant argue with how they run.

Freak accident? Or maybe he had Stainless Steel truck nutzzz that slowed him down?

Well I think your friend has the vids of you, she actually took that first one too lol! My wife took a bunch of pics of both of our trucks though. Next time we'll have to get all of them together to take some group shot foor the calender...

I'll have to wait till this afternoon to get them up though, I just had to come back home to grab my steel toes for work, so I gotta run lol!

Oh yeah, I got that trans, I can't wait to get started on it!

Cool, yeah, she did get a couple vids, vids of the grass, me arguing with the dude at the lights, etc, haha. I deffinatley want to do it again, just earlier so that there wont be so many people, get a few runs in, then chill out for a while. Maybe enjoy a couple of "cool" drinks.

And smokin deal on a tranny, be a fun project to have.

No... They're not lol! Well mine are actually pretty cool, and they love to hunt and fish, so I can't complain. You guys think your 60' times were bad...

2.279 was my best, and that was against that Z71. He cut a 2.526 60', that's a whole tenth worse than Lance's time in the crew cab! My worst was a 2.386 on my last and slowest run.

I do need some tires or front gears. If I had the money right now, I'd be lookin' for a set of radials on the cheap. This summer I'll be working full time though, so that shouldn't have to wait too long haha. I third the "cool" drinks and more chillin' for next time, it'll be nice not to have to sit in the staging lanes for an hour to get one run in.

Working on the pics right now...
