Haha 4.43s...good call dusty. Everything is bigger in Tehas!

I will be over here whimpering whilst driving on my 4.11s.

SuperSport- Looks like fun! Nice rig. Beautiful dog, reminds me of one my brother had years ago, amazingly smart dog and a surprisingly gentle disposition (unless you approached the house without getting his attention first, then the ferocious side came out, not to be trifled with). Anyhoots, which front bumper you running with there? Looks sharp..

Ordered some parts from Zack's shop today, real nice guy on the phone (not Zack, forget his name), good prices, good experience overall.

Yep, can't let you yanks out do us.

4.12 was the route I had planned...until the exhaustingly long conversation with gb Bill. my head was hurting from the numbers and weight ratio and drag and all. at that point I could have been convinced that 5.13 was the answer. I shall soon know if it was a wise choice. I am very confident that it will go at least 35mph.

Yeah, she's a sweetheart, unless you surprise her, or try to get between her and my wife. Then, she's kinda scary, and she's only 7 months old!

The bumper is stock and a stock LR Push bar. At least that's what I THINK it is.

Funny you mentioned the mean side of her. I'm currently designing a sticker for the rear side windows. I'm not done yet, but this is the gist of it.

looks good, what size tires you running? I'm going to go with 4:12's, I'll only use like 32-33'' tires though. I used the Ashcroft Rpm calculator also, just to make sure
