Yes that's right, he is. I took it this passed weekend to a small local pull for another test hook, it did very well! I have video, its not the best, the Iphone 4 is supposed to take really good video but it doesn't turn out well on youtube.

They are 17" Eagle wheels with the STS's, the inside is a normal stock wheel and it wouldn't fit over the brake drum, so we took the drum off and put some small rotors and tiny Wilwood calipers. I'll grab some pictures of it in a bit.

After removing the rear brake drum to make the 17" wheel fit, we stuck this little rotor and basically go cart caliper in its place.

It was in Clifton, we try to hit those small pulls for good test hooks, the sled owners are really cool about sneaking us in.

Hey Alex what size tires are those? The disk brake set looks nice and clean. Is it a single rear end or dually? Truck does look great.
