My purpose was to see, in street-mode, what it's capable of - not to see if I was faster than the next guy or not. And to answer your other question, no I won't be running slicks...my interest is how fast can I make my daily driver "as is" under everyday driving conditions. I just ran next to (not so much 'against'Well i mean thats great and all, but anything to make the truck lighter is going to help. It doesnt take a huge amount of time to remove the tailgate/spare tire etc. Thats cool you wanna run street weight,l but "hypothetically" speaking if you want to go with street weight and it comes down to the wire and i beat you with my truck by say 2/10s because i took off my tailgate and spare to reduce weight, then who has the faster truck? Yeah we may be tied on the street if i had my tailgate, but on paper ive got the faster truck. Running a 1/4 on the street is not as accurate as running at the track, plus ive got the paper to prove my trucks faster. Are your not going to run slicks when that thing gets faster? Im sure you would like to run your trucks with slicks if it gets that quick, but yet you wouldnt drive around all day with slicks on would you? I mean i understand both of yalls reasoning for not wanting to do the small things like tailgate spare, but if it means you beating someone you want to beat, then do it, you may not see him on the road. Just my.

I believe in that beast
