i did not go to 3grand in fear of smoking my stock clutch

if you want to see some stacks check out my vids of the other trucks
theres another pull next weekend in banks, maybe i shoud do that one too?

i think it needs to roll some more smoke before it needs stacks

Your A/T's will be good enough to break stuff if you got sticky tracks

did my second pull on saturday went 169 feet, but my truck did its third pull, i let my dad run it too, he went 172 feet, beat me by 3 feet in my own truck

the clutch is doing good so far, it still holds and i got to drive it home which was close to 70 miles away, glad we didn't brake it.
dad was 4th in the class i was 5th. out of 7 trucks

heres one
