I wasn't doubting you, with that set up you should easily run 5.9's.

10 bolts are good for 3000+ hp easily on 33x16.5 slicks.

I managed to get myself a PB tonight. Unfortunatly I was only able to get in one good run because my slicks are shot. Im going to guess with some new slicks and similar weather my time would get a little better.

I tried to tell ya that last weekend when I borrowed one of them.

Let me know if you find a good price, I gotta replace mine or at least the one that got cut when the motor let go.
I'll have the video up shortly.
