If you have a 250-350 your truck should be fine unless you have 500+ hp. When you pull you are on dirt. Use 4Lo and after you do it once you wont be afraid of hurting your truck. The sled is very smooth.

some info

Its $30 to enter a class and it is 100% pay back to at least 3rd place. There will also be extra money put on classes by the track. The classes for diesel will be 1) novice class (no regular pullers) 2) stock turbo class 3) non stock turbo class all hitch heights must not exceed 26" unless 2 wheel drive 31". Use a pindle or loop in your reese hitch.
