I dunno anything about who has the fastest trucks but I know D proved 80 in 2nd gear. I go by the seat of the pants method. It feels good, especially from the drivers seat. I must compliment on the SSBC brake kit. That truck stops real good. I am jealous of rear disk brakes.
i also have driven his truck man i love it, D knows i was wanting to steal it after lol... my neighbors i dont think they liked our street as a drag strip tho but it was fun thats for sure...and D thanks again for letting me drive it

I have that spare set of calipers.. I wonder if I could get a set of plates from SSBS.. try putting discs on your truck luke? I just thought about it.. I don't need those single piston calipers..
Thanks for the compliment :) . I just need to finish putting on the rear bars and get it painted.

lets not start that one again. I'm the only one that has seen both run i think. It would be pretty even would be my guess.
D has somewhat of an advantage with the manual trans.
still who needs to prove which is faster? the are both sweet rangers.

I'm not into drags like I used to be. I'm quite tuned down and actually have almost 15,000miles on the present engine with no blown head gaskets or fragged manifolds.
I'm sure Nick has a bunch of other ' goodies ' that he doesn't advertise as well. Hes no fool and stays low profile. Very smart individual
