Personally.. I would worry about safety and suspension and getting it to go straight down the track at WOT long before I worried about shedding more weight

Lol. I dont think there is much left other then the diet thing. Its not like you can lose a lot anyway. Maybe 20lbs but anymore then that, you would lose your sex appeal..
Old tractor pulling tricks would work but then you prolly wouldn't pass tech..
Im thinking fiberglass all the way around is the best bet.
That's a pretty good point scotty!

yes. Build a giant ballon that would fit in the bed under a tano(sp?) cover and fill it with helium!

Do you guys really not know that will only reduce traction and handling? You would still have the same amount of mass to accelerate.

I could have worded that to be less condescending, but to answer your question, no I did not. I think that your sarcastic tone got lost somewhere in the deep dark recesses of the inter web.

I need the weight removed from the front of the truck and not the back. That may include a fiberglass cab....

Ha! No it's not staying a rat rod. The inside, undercarriage, and engine bay are beautiful for a reason. Eventually when I get it to run the way I want it to, the body is getting cleaned up and painted candy cobalt blue. Probably this winter.

The rat look is cool as chit but I have always been a fan of blue too. It'll look cool as hell either way!

The shop is full of trucks that I'm waiting on parts for and I have a new set of tires on the race truck. I'm going racing today.
