Right, I had it at the county fair truck pull just over a year ago now. I had never pulled before, not even a tractor, although I had watched my friends. So it was just for fun, and lots of fun it was! Pulled just over 200 feet if I remember right, better than more than 10 of the other trucks in a class of 20 total.

Here is the video (really poor quality):

The sound is pretty good, no mufflers at all, just a 3" pipe off each turbo, both exiting behind the rear axle. Note the left front fender settling back down when I spin out and then release the clutch.
