So guys it looks like the only thing the Dakota lacks is traction. What can
we do to improve this substantially? What is everyone's thoughts? >>
Trust me when I say the stock dak has no chance against the syclone. I work
with a dude who brings his syclone out on nice days. Just for fun we lined up
and went for it. I was doing good for about 4 seconds, but once he got the
turbo spinning full boost, first thing I saw was the rear window of his truck,
then the rear tire, then the tailgate, and finally brake lights. This is a
really tough truck and should be given the respect it deserves.

Still love my Dak, even though she lost
