It's just an idea. Yes these vehicles would have to be built specific, but theoretically should be all on a level playing field. By the time you trim off whats not necessary any of these trucks could potentially weigh 2600-3000lbs. and with a cost effective 500-550hp should be a mid ten second program with ease. The tire size is adequate to run in the low 9's and minimal modifications would be required for fitment and the traction assistance would allow a simple installation. The trucks are all full frame. I'm not forcing anyone to do anything. It's just an idea and I'm over it now! MB.
