Well I final got my R/T to the drag strip. It's
been raining here forever. Did 6 passes won 3
lost 3. Traction is definitely a problem although
not as bad as I thought it would be. As soon as
these tires wear out I'll have to get some wider
ones. Truck pulls pretty good until it hits about
70 MPH in third gear that's where some more Hp
would really be nice! Highlight of my night was
beating a mustang! Well here are the results
from the best run out of 6. The conditions were
very humid and about 60 degrees it had just
stopped raining.

ET 1/4 Mile 15.46
Speed 1/4 Mile 87.99
Reaction Time: Embarrassing
60 ft. 2.215
330 ft. 6.3797
1/8 Mile 9.866
100 ft. 12.89

Forgot to mention my R/T is a Club Cab 4,280 Lbs.
