I always took this article as an interesting read, but I question the accuracy of some of the details...

For example launching at 4500 on street tires and hooking????????....
.......maybe but not sure how......

Shifting at 6500....stock rev limit is 6400....so maybe they shifted at 6500......

1.5 rocker arms on LT4.....not true...
