So I'm right on the age? I've yet to see a post from you that was actually helpful. Usually it's us trying to back up indy on something. Although I will be honest I haven't read many of your posts so some may be helpful.
What do you drive anyway? I assume it's a awesome vehicle?

I didn't see that post when I typed mine up. Thats a nice Chevelle from what I saw of it in the video.
I said for a Ram it was decent just that it wasn't that fast.
I did pay more for a car than he paid but I didn't want it to be fast. Can he haul 4-5 people comfortably on a trip all while having his luggage somewhere that keeps it dry if raining? No he can't. Thats what this car is nice for. If I want to go to the track to go fast I just get the R1 out of the garage. It's fast enough for me and way cheaper than putting money into a car or truck to get it to run similar times.
I do give it credit for being a nice truck and it's a pretty good time for a fullsize pickup truck. Just not as bad as everyone seems to make it out to be.

RE: 14.40s @ 94mph.
The last time I logged into this Forum it was the 2nd Gen Dodge Ram one. It's not NHRA today and lets see who has the lowest ET. We are talking about Dodge Rams that generally weigh in around 2 ton. 14.40's pushing a 2 ton brick down the track is pretty impressive to me.
I still have access to my brothers 73 Mach 1 Mustang that would run 11's and it was his daily driver. I know there's no full size Ram that can compete with that, but we're not talking about Mustang's ,we're talking about 2nd Gen Rams.
14.40's in a Ram is fast. If you want to talk how your car is faster go over toother forum sites and talk to them.

RM_Indys truck is fast for a truck in my book. It's much faster. IMO Thats the truck I've always really looked up to. 14.40 isn't slow for this truck but it's not fast either.

RE: 14.40s @ 94mph.
I am planning on going to a track friday night to try for better. I took off a bunch more junk today and it feels just like I remember it. I do remember why I wanted to put my posi in so badly. Its like driving on water. Short times probably wont be much better until I do that, but I should have a decent bit of the kinks ironed out of the motor and trans by then, so hopefully its going to live up to my expectations. Ill be very content with 14.2 for now. I may also need to get some new leaf springs, I was under the rear today and noticed they were warped at the axle. Its all up from here.
