    Caleb........ you scare me sometimes lol. After watching the Jeep vid all I can think is Antirocks. I bet with a pair of nice sway bars you would drop a whole second off your et. They would help you plant more power on the hill climbs and carve the dunes at warp speed ;D. Where are the videos of the Caddy laying it down at the strip? I want to see that sucker go. I saw you launch across an intersection a while back and that car hauls some tail and sounds bitchen

    The jeep has very large anti sway bars, but the engine and tire sire overpower them.  The vid of the cad running is underneath the picture of it in a hyperlink.

    Adjust them in further then when you drag it. I would be curious to see how it would do if you could plant all that power. Last time we wheeled out at Westicals I remember it screaming through some of those trenches bouncing off the limiter and just sending stuff into the atmosphere lol. That was before the rebuild so i bet it gets it real good now. I missed the caddy link duh. Its hard to see anything around a cool picture though,. I was to busy eye****ing it to see the text below

    What's the 1/4 mile times on that jeep and your caddy? I do a little drag racing myself.

    That's pretty quick, I haven't ran my new motor here at medford yet, but up in woodburn I ran 12.2. I know the elevation difference makes for a slower time here but with my old motor I ran about the same times at both places. That's pretty quick for those big rigs.
