The dodge guy was just stupid. hold your brakes until the other guy breaks traction and then just pull him away. Looks like he was in 2wd too.

Why you would ever do that is so beyond me... I will never, ever understand it. Those are 40-50K Trucks. Both Idiots

Bet I could pull a Drudge away that was standing on the brakes. I know I could. I could drag it down the street screaming and begging. This is a traction issue more than a HP thing.

Yeah, I hate those retarded videos. Every single one has the winning truck's fans all giddy as school girls and the others pointing out what Kris has.

Wanna impress me?? Put it on a dyno or run it on a real track...

That is different that they only allow two tires brands and makes. IIRC they were BFG AT's and Dakota Futura's.
It may be "stupid" to some folks, but it seems kind of cool to me. That being said, you would NEVER see me doing it with my truck.

A truck pull, pulling a sled is a little bit different than two drunk rednecks hooking a chain to each other's bumper and seeing who goes forward. Too many things to go wrong, especially on pavement. In the dirt, pulling a sled, is a true test of how tough and strong a truck is.
