The more I think about this the more it impresses me. I used to own a 454SS and just thinking of a truck going that fast .....well, i don't trust them that much. How you get traction I don't know but mad props!

How much lighter would a stepside bed be? I know my '00 rcsb stepside bed weighted nothing with the plastic fenders on both sides.

I think those stepside beds weigh more. Too much fiberglass to make the fenders.

Congrats Flaco, hope you hit over 200 next time you go.

Fenders are all plastic on the newer ones. They were on the '99-xx body style trucks anyway.

Stepside beds are heavier than fleetside beds, theyre made out of a urethane type plastic with a metal liner for the actual inside of the bed. There isnt much difference but Id say a good 50#s.

Weight makes very little difference to trap speed mph in a standing mile. It's all about horsepower and aerodynamics at speeds this high.
