That is really nice and the black/charcoal?

How fast?

I did everything in black, silver, and white. The original interior was all white with gray carpet and purple lettering everywhere.

Best speed ever is 109. The wife and I usually run 105-106 together. It's never not run 100, even with 5 people aboard. I credit the Dewald props for that as it wasn't nearly as fast when I first got it.

Look what you made me do. This was completely unintentional. I kept hearing about Pedal Commander, so I got one. Was leaving the driveway to test it out. There's a hill about 1/8th mile to my left and a truck came haulin' over it just as I got onto the road. I gassed it, forgetting it was set on Sport, and just smoked the tires.

It was just on Sport 0. I plan to take the truck to the drag strip as soon as the weather permits with the hopes of running in the high 12's. I plan to put it on Sport+ +4 or all the way up for that.

If you're getting some bucking, check out Caltracs traction bars. They make all the difference in the world.

I no just meant it jumps on takeoff and if you let let off the gas.. if you don't feather the gas like in a parking lot but not the best place for sport+4
Yea looking at traction bars and lpw diff cover w torsion bars that get welded to axle.
Will definitely check those out
