Ratdog,
I had that concern. The weight distribution is 56% front, 44% rear (which is actually better than I thought it was going to be). The chassis is the original '50 pickup that we boxed and added some cross members. The front end is a Heidt's kit with disc brakes. The rear end is Chassis Works laddar bar/coil over shock kit. I can't really explain it but the truck just plants and goes. We must have gotten something right in the set up. If you are a drag racer you know that 60' times are how you measure how well a car launches. On a good track the truck will pull consistent 1.50's for 60' times. That is comparable to a friend with a well set up '68 Chevelle that runs high 10's. I am thrilled with the way the truck launches and runs straight and hard.
