Will it hook up?
I was thinking about using some ET streets (26 x 10) this weekend. I have a 5spd manual and 3.54 rear gears. The suspension is stock leaf springs with no traction aids. The motor is a stock 350 HO with a 100HP shot. Do you think It'll hook and go or spin like mad? Anyone done anything similar? Root for me, I gotta beat up on my cousin('04 Hemi truck) and his roommate('04 Nissan Titan 5.6). I'm trying to carry the biggest stick possible. They don't know about the spray.

you should be able to bust their a$$ if they are rolling stock.

Good, i was afraid you were going to say T-5.
If you don't dump the clutch too hard you oughta hook up pretty good. That's the beauty of a manual shift....you can pick the stall speed at every intersection. |

the only thing to worry about is axle wrap and wheel hop leaf springs are tricky personally i would take off relatively easy and hit it hard after i was rolling then bring the juice and hope it dont get sideways
