You started that build to beat the last 2% that was running 2 years ago. Well since then everyone has gone a lot faster then that last 2%. Now you are going to need even more to hang with the big fish in the big pond. I'm happy fishing for Large Mouth Bass I don't need to go hunt for any Great White Sharks anytime soon.

Man, that was fun back in the day and those days I am sure will repeat they way we are going.
Looking forward to your final product, I just hope you don't bail out on it. Gets expensive quick.

Yeah I was on street tires and we had a lot of spin issues at first but we fixed that but having 3 people sitting on the back trunk area. Yeah it was getting true readings and very consistent. Everytime we made a pull the numbers were with in a couple from the time before.

I think I'll keep mine around the 700rwhp mark and just take weight out. That way I don't push the motor too hard and it will still haul the mail.. I'm going to try to get it back down to 3k lbs... Shouldn't be too hard to do. I had it at 3050 back in the day.
