next, a law will go into effect on minimum height requirements and the rest of us will be driving around all the way up bouncing around on 120 lb in the firestones so that we do not get a ticket.next example loud stereos where did that get us when everyone in town was driving around blairing music through residential areas. You got it a new ordinance on db levels and more tickets comming our way.1.) there are laws in most states that ban adjustable suspensions while driving and lift and lowering laws in effect

2.) most of us drive 2500lb -2800lb bags already not 120lb lol and it still wouldnt stop us from laying out

3.) if its too loud your too old.

i remember when "cha-ching" burned on the side of the interstate. the entire truck and trailor burnt to the ground. it wasnt because of dragging either. it was being hauled in a fully enclosed haulmark trailor and the battery was disconnected. the cable started arcing with the terminal and it cought the fumes on fire from the fuel cell. it was a total loss. there used to be pics floating aroung the net but i havent seen any in a while. i wish i could find some of it. it was a beautiful truck.

allright this is the thing that pisses me off I drag my shit but I mad shure that my tank whould never touch the ground (as long as thear is nothing over an inch taller than the pavment on the road lol) but I must say this guy (if he built his own truck) has checked and rechecked how close the tank is to the ground. but the one thing that get's to me is that he put a bar with a titanam block under his tank. even if the block didin't get so hot that it melted in to the tank all you have to have is a small leak to start an freakin cool drag ( humm thats a good idea a small gas leak sothat it makes little fires as you go (sorry I got off track) so to summ it up raze your tank and stop being a pussy and drag body or frame like a real man.

he didnt put the bar under his tank, he put blocks in front of the tank on the outside of the frame but dragged it for 5 miles and the heat buildup melted one of the lines.

Big Joe i meant 120 psi and i do have 2500lb front and 2600 lb firestones in the rear.
The point I was trying to make is be carefull and use common sense. The last thing you want to see is a thread started saying that someone was killed in their ride as it burned down. I know we all can agree on that one!!
Jeff thats cool watching out for everyone but a fire extinguisher might be a good thing to have next to your cameras (dont take that as me being an a..)
