    I ran a 14.05 in 2HI with a 2.13 60', spun a little off the line. Then I ran a 14.19 launching in 4HI and pushing the 2HI button after the 1-2 shift. 60' was 2.08 and I kind of messed up on the 1-2 shift. I was a little late and bounced off the rev limiter, otherwise I would have been a little faster.

    Yeah, but he is also running 10s. Apparently a stock transfer case can handle lot of power. Except for STOCK48, I have not heard of a stock transfer case fail...in a 4WD or AWD form.

    What if you have a manual transfer case and you do the 2low mod where you put a switch in to disconnect the front axle in 4 low. Then launch in 4 hi and about the 60 ft flip the switch to disconnect the front axle and still leave tcase in 4wd. Would it work or help?

    Haven't heard of doing that yet. Leaving the TC in 4WD means it will will still be spinning, creating a little bit of power loss through the driveline...

    I launch in 4hi and hit 115.... The week part in these trucks for the front is the tie rods easy to bend... They make sleeves for them or u can buy after market tie rods that are like a 1/2in thick I think.. Then they have some with hime (sorry about spelling) joints ends not the ball joints... If u go watch the 09 camaro vs 05 silverado thred that's me doing my 4hi and u can see that the wheels toe in on that launch ill be getting the after market tie rods cause their either going to bend or snap if I keep launchn it like that hope that helps

    Maze, ever looked into the Cognito steering braces? Those along with some stout sleeves and some QA1 double adjustables made a world of difference on the front end for me. Also kept me from throwing my alignment out every trip to the track. I would guees you are high 11s with the 115 trap speeds?
