Now assume you buy the heavier wheels, so your truck weight 5,056 pounds.
Again using standard drag racing formulas your ET would be 14.54 seconds at 93.7 mph using the same standard techniques.
Yes, you went slower, but the ET only got worse by 0.3%!
A good launch technique that results in good 60-foot times will buy you more than that. And that's all I meant to say ... sorry if I implied otherwise. 
Good luck with your Titan. Beat the crap out the Tundras! We're already faster and quicker than Chevys and Fords. |
I got ya, hopefully I didn't come across the wrong way
