I wonder....

So there I was sitting at a stop light when all of a sudden I got to thinking, "I wonder what my truck would do on a 10psi launch". So I flipped the TST off (didn't wanna stress anything ya know ) and built up about 10psi and then mashed it. Nothing. I just sit there. Look behind me and there's white smoke. Crud. This can't be good. All of a sudden the truck rockets off and slams 2nd gear. Look behind me and there's 2 thick 10 feet long black strips. Dang I love this truck.

Last time it was wet down here I found out real quickly that spinning 440hp is a lot more interesting that doing it with 230hp.

Of course my standard "internet" response is:

"I don't believe you and we need video proof of this..."

You want it on wet or dry? I think my tranny can handle at least one more launch.
