what has this world come to when you can run 12s in a 3 ton truck on 2 foot wide wheels...

That kit has been out for a while. It's pretty amazing what they can do! On that note, I still would not drive on of those things. My GF had one as a rental for a few days and if you hit the breaks too hard it would send the truck bobbing back and forth! I know it's an SUV, but the amount of movement the truck had (front to back, and side to side) was a bit too unsettling for me!

You can make any car, any car do that if you have enough money, thats all there is to it.

haha yeah we talked about my lack of a stick, but okay I guess I would take the Escalade.

05Accent · 04-01-2007, 02:54 AM

thats awesome as ****!

Philly-Night-SR · 04-01-2007, 12:02 PM

yeah but it takes it another 3/4 mile and about 40 seconds to come back to a stop.... and that's after it mows down a few people...

james_ls · 04-01-2007, 12:58 PM

Cool for the concept.

Stupid for usage.

How the hell are you going to stop that hell wagon?

Intercooled T · 04-01-2007, 01:01 PM

thats pretty cool, and that big ass motor can definitely spool that turbo fast, so I'd imagine there isn't much lag....pretty wicked for a 6,000lb truck.

me? I'd prefer to mod a turbo diesel truck

Yeah, definitely. Nothing like those Diesels with 900 lb. ft. of torque.
