did you have slicks on?

 

And on a fresh broom finished concrete road?

 

either way. both trucks pull damn good IMO.

 

Oh yeah his truck hauls ***, Im not taking that away from him. Just wondering if there is more to the story, never seen a 2wd truck launch like that on the street without vht and slicks on a good road.

 

Drag radials, that's all I drive on the street. I was on a regular asphalt road.

This video below is about the same time as the first posted. Only difference is I'm on street tires, 5.3, 208/212 cam, 3.42 gears, g80, tt3000 converter.

4.8 seconds - 2wd - street tires

Nothing more, nothing hidden. I've always laid everything out there on my setups. No doubt I have to feather the throttle everywhere to keep from spinning though. I can't launch like a 4wd that's for sure, but I believe the right combination and the right driver 3 second 0-60's is capable in a 2wd on the street. (Yes 0-60 is a gay measurement, but we are talking the street here)

 

LMAO I wish I could hook like that on the street with slicks and VHT.. Both trucks roll from a dig.. I just destroy tires

 

Tie rod sleeves, Cognito pitman/idler braces, limiting straps/chains, and de-crank.

These helped my launches, but I'm still dialing everything in to make it even better.

 

What he said.

 

The secret to Matt's hard launches are his suspension. And even then it's not a secret, just that people overlook it.

He's a bit of suspension geek really.
