cool. yeah i don't blame you at all.
2009 CHEVROLET 1500 with a MONSTER 4.8 between the frame rails!!
Tuned by LSX Powersports ~ 4.10 ~ JBA Shorties ~ 4" Inlet/Outlet Spintech ~ Airaid Coldair
CST 3.5" Spindles ~ Camburg Upper Control Arms ~ 2.5" CCM ~ FFR Tie Rods
Full Throttle Suspension 3" Lift Blocks ~ Soft 8s wrapped in LT285/70/17 Silent Armors
yeah the situation was that i bought smaller 26" slicks and when i went to the track having 4.10 gears ..with that combo i was already in 3rd gear before the 330 mark which pretty much killed my time at the track best i was able to do was a 9.69... I was running a much taller tire when i ran a 9.5... so we think if we go with a gear swap from 4.10s to 3.73 and use the 26" slicks we'll be right at the gear ratio we are wanting to be in... only one way to really find out. So trucks going into the shop probably next week.
get rid of the 22s when you're at the track. Weigh one of those tires on the bathroom scale then weigh a stock tire and wheel. That's a lot of mass to get rolling.

yeah, thats what we are going to do next time take the fronts off and run the 17's.. we still havent actually done that before so we think with the lighter weight it will be a added advantage at getting closer to a lower ET even though the 17's tires are a inch taller then the diameter of the entire 22.
