Ha... Well, funny story... I was goin to get my dual exhaust put on and I'm waiting to turn right during rush hour to the exhaust place. After like 5 min I get an opening...tiny... so i gun it. Everything was good but what i didnt notice was the lil hill into the parking lot and the bump at the top of the hill. Next thing I see is blue sky!!!! Come down, and just kept rollin forward bouncin almost run into the building and turn into a parking spot. Needless to say the muffler guys were laughing their a$$es off. As was I...

only way to get a v6 truck off the ground is to put some hydro's on it and hop the hell out of it

Find a way to get like 500+hp and 500+lb/ft and you might do it. But that's next to impossible with a 6er.

I saw a gen2 last weekend at the track. He road a wheel stand for about 60 ft. I think he was about 3-4 ft high. He ran a 6.40 on the 1/8. I don't know what he had in it, I never got a chance to talk to him.

There's some red van truck thing too. There are variations for each automaker anymore. I think the original was a mopar. Very cool. Can't be a great ride though. Probably feels like your on the end of a hammer.

It was the Lil' Red Wagon. Another Mid engine Hemi. Back in '97 I entered in the Mopars in English Town, New Jersey and the Lil' Red Wagon and the Hemi Under Glass (Both replicas of the orignal, since they are both in museums) went down the track together both doin wheelies the whole time, both running 12's. Must be nice. :-)

Just another 3.9 Dak

Get really big slicks so you get all your torque to the ground. Then stroke out your motor, supercharger it, nos it, and put really stiff shocks in the front.

nah... but the stiff ones in the back and most worn out shocks in the back... that way the front will come off the ground and the back wont squat on you.

how do you put stiff wornout shocks on the back at the same time? Isn't that an oximoron?
