Well, I'll re-assure you I'll not be on the same planet as that... lol ! I'm betting as it sits it might run a mid 16's. I gave 800.00 for the truck, and if I could spend less than 400 bucks more and get it to go low 15's, maybe even a 14.99, that would make me thrilled. If it was a V10 or Diesel, it would be much easier, but a stock 360 in a 5000 lbs truck, well, it will be a challenge. Spray, boost, porting and the like isn't allowed in the cheap, friendly race. It's a race to give a rookie, newbie on a low budget a few ideas that they could do themselves at home, and build enthusiasm in the hobby. IF I can hit a 14.99 on less than 1200 bucks total (in a 5k lbs truck), that should sit well in this race!! But that's a big IF
