This may sound dumb lol but I've never even gotten to drive the truck yet... It was strictly built to drag race it's actually not even registered so I'm not sure I'll ever know how it's street manners would be..

Hoping to get to the track at the end of the month, my buddy had a track rental scheduled to get their stuff ready for drag week but we're leaving for vacation the same day so I'll miss that opportunity to shake this thing down. I'll still have to baby the rear end till I get the nine inch under it

I don't have one yet, but I actually just got ahold of a chassis shop and made an app for November to do a 10 point.
