Soon but on outright slicks, I am tired of waiting ( three months now ) for new DR's to show up and I have since replaced the one brand new slick I destroyed after one pass about half a year ago now. $hawn did the saw-z all mod for me.

Only thing I am concerned about is now that I have it dialed in pretty good on DR's the set up is going to change all over again on slicks and I just do not have the free time to go back and test many times in a row to get it right.

I'm not the brightest but if you got it set up too hook on DR's it couldnt help but to hook on slicks, am I wrong?

That might work but seeing how the sidewalls in each tire is designed and built so much differently I am pretty confident the shock settings are going to change too.

Yes running the 28's and hoping for no rub.

I still have to hope the trans is going to hold, I have yet to run it with the new tractor fluid shit I came across that is supposed to be the save all. I have my doubts knowing what I am throwing at it.

Sorry for the thread hijack.
