Without a built auto I would only put it on level 3 and listen for TC slip on hills in 4th. My truck could slip the TC locked up in 4th with the Quad on the 30hp setting pulling a little over 10,000 lbs.

Coming down to my neck of the woods huh. Be careful of your speed, especially as you approach Birmingham to the track. The state has a blitz going right now and the race routes are always patrolled heavily starting the week before the race. Have fun and be safe.
