you had 3.07 gears though?

With that gear and 35" tires, low range 1st will give you 20mph 2nd is 34 and 3rd is 49... This is all at 3000 rpm...

I had 3.07's and 33's... Plus power up to 4k.

You forgeting about the slip from the convertor, non-lockup remember... Even stock my truck pulled 2nd. 1st gear was way to low and slow. His truck will pull 2nd.

Went 211 feet in 2wd. Selectro Hub
On the drivers side didn't engage. No bump stops, and 2000 pounds under class limit. I can't remember if I had it in 4low or high, knew I was testing my hubs in 4 low. But spedo was at 15 mph , and the truck SAT at the line. I was gonna hang it up then she started gaining speed. Didn't let out of it until I felt the sled dig in. Those tires DIG . My buddy out pulled me by 8 feet.

I know the track was nice and tacky, it rained hard early Monday afternoon, and cleared up. They ran that night and then had the whole day yesterday to tack up. I know the tractors pulling were hooking hard off the line, most had to slip the clutch about 1/4 way down the track b4 they let it all go to the ground.
