naaaaaaaaaaa,.........I'm just having fun,....but I'm working on getting
faster........
Actually, my Dak is completely different driveline wise than yours, Bernds,
Gary's, or Chad's........so I don't expect to go whipping on R/T's, or
other 2wd Dak's at the strip.
But the looks on peoples face's when a 6 cyl,
4wd Dakota turns a mid to low 15 at the strip,
or belts out a 300+ rwhp number on the dyno
makes it worth it.
HEHEHEHE!.........MUHAHAHAHA!!
