It's crazy how the NNBS trucks make 20's look small...

what shock is everyone running on their 4/7-4/6 drop? im running a 19" long shock, it seems to be just fine...could actually go a little shorter for a stiffer shock but these work perfect.

id like to look into helper bags or something of the sort to run better at the track.

Looks great! 4/6 or 7 looks fantastic on our trucks, wish I lived in a winterless climate and I'd be down in the weeds with the rest of you guys.

How much of a difference have the brakes made? I'm assuming it's a 13" rotor?

its a stock replacement and just the little driving with it i did yesterday the stopping is a TON better. i love the rotor upgrade so far. the track will tell the full story though...its gonna take some good brakes to keep stopping a 107mph back to back and not warp. its suppose to have a 2 year warrenty on defects/warping.

I wanna see some #'s.

Keep us updated on those rotors. I have yet to hear of non warping drilled/slotted rotors. If they don't i'll buy some. Which pads u put on?
