that"s right, its all about traction and weight transfer an old theory, the trouble is getting the thing to go straight.....to me thats the fun part anyone can drive but toss in a wheelie maybe a powerslide ......well you get the picture

whats the deal with the firewall coming up into the cab like that? i could understand if it was a nostalgia funny car or something with a insane blower but for a carbed motor seems a little excessive i think? anyways its bad ass cant wait to see more on it!

lol i guess... like i previously said generally dont see cars/trucks like that unless they are old top fuelies... but its your build and thats what hot rodding is all about making it the way you want it, if everything was supposed to stay unchanged then every car on the showroom would be a hot rod.
