    So one person (with only 3 posts) tells you what you want to hear and you believe him?? I think everyone on hear with a powerful truck has told you that shorties are a waste of money and do not benefit your power output.

    Make up your mind on what info you are asking for, you're contradicting yourself. You seem like one who is gonna do whatever they think will work so have fun wasting money.

    Many people have already told you their opinion on what upgrades to do but you continue to argue and be ignorant saying your trinity is better. If you ask for advice, TAKE IT, don't just throw it back at the person and say, '"well, blah blah blah I make hella dough blah blah. If you are going to have this attitude about people giving you advice you should steer away from forums and continue to use that "75K a year" to buy all the stuff you see on Powerblock every Saturday morning.

    Most sports require one ball, motocross requires two.

    Racing isn't a matter of life and death, it's much more important than that.
