You have been here since 2006, YOU should have known. We do not allow ads for trucks for sale in the forums. We supply you with the free classifieds for that very purpose.

I realize that was your intent, but you posted a link to his ad so that was why it was removed. No big deal I only mentioned it because I have had to remove several of your links lately.

Why? A regular cab, lowered 4wd with race built system in it isn't good enough? If they could keep together, that thing should be well into the 9's. Drevers rig is a bigger truck and is more consistent.

Interesting..

They wanna do a unit like the Banks truck and compete in that class.
Would be a pretty fun ride to own all bright orange and stuff!!!

I personally think that they should try to get what they have running properly first, before they try to go after the big boys... but that is just my opinion. They are free to spend their money however they please!!

No kidding, if you are 1000 lbs lighter, and have just as much power, you should be able atleast keep up. As much as we all like to rag on Banks, they do have some quick running trucks. Gonna be a tall order.
