Yes 12's are attainable with 20k.

Now it would be tough to get any truck on 42's in the 12's..LOL

Elmo's truck was in the 12's on 37's and it is a 7.3...

Why don't you tell him to post up. I bet his truck has never made it to a drag strip.

I don't know, but it appears the only thing you can do now is actually do, or kill him.

Just remember, no body makes it way harder to prosicute.

Why argue with a guy dumb enough to buy a sick leaker!!! Just kidding, don't starting sending me all the pm'S ABOUT HOW GREAT YOUR 6.0 IS!!
Some idiots just love to run their mouth, let him ramble on, in the end you'll be driving that piece of junk 7.3 long after he gives up on the 6.0!!

6.0 with 42's running 12's is funny, running 10's and 11's is down right comical!!

Take them to the track and line them up. You'll win by default any established track that would let a truck with 16" of lift and 42" tires pass a tech inspection is nuts...
