Congrats on the times Will.
My best 60ft to date is a 2.143. That was with TT2600, G80, 3.73 Gears, and bald tires. I got some new tires now (inch shorter same width and 4lbs lighter per tire) and notice a big difference on the street from the old bald tires. I'm hoping to be able to leave a little harder next time I go to the track and see some 2.0 60 fts. I am in a Crew Cab so I do have (not positive about the weight) but I'd say close to 1000lbs more to get moving than a reg cab.

Thanks- Yeah, going with a shorter (lighter) tire is like getting taller gears. I'm running a 30" tire, but on a light rim.
I have a tune coming from Wheatley and I hope when I go back to the track in two weeks, I'll be in the 14's. As for weight, I think my truck weighs around 4,200- with me in it, 4,425. I'll get it weighed next time at the track.

I agree, being that a friend of mine with basically the same truck as Will, but with only a generic predator programmer and no other mods ran 15.01. I'm sure that night, if he had a good tune he would have seen 14s.
Curb Weight for a CrewCab is around 5000lbs, I've never weighed my truck, but there is some scales for 18 Wheelers at a truck stop near where I work. May take a ride at lunch tomorrow and see what it weighs.
I can't wait until I can get back to the track and take advantage of some good air.
