    Unfortunately no, I have been too busy working to get up to the races again. I did however get leather seats for the truck; I'm curious to see how much horsepower they added.

    you did the simple things, headlight, tailgate down, etc...but loose the weight, take toolbox out and leave it at home, and leave the pasenegers in the crowd to look at your RT and ET...passengers, looking for a good/decent ET isn't gonna happen

    Shedding some weight should help a lot. They say every hundred pounds you drop is a tenth of a second in the quarter mile. Would be less in the eighth of course.
    And leave the tailgate up - down just creates a larger vacuum behind the cab.

    Exactly...it's a nice little chunk of weight and whatever you would lose in reduced drag is made up for in weight reduction.
