So Im gonna do my first pull next weekend. So far I've got bump stop extensions leaving like 2 1/2 of travel and I'm wondering how much to lower the front of my truck I've got it set up perfect for 4 wheel launches if I go any lower it wonders a little but should I take the torsion bolts out or leave it where it's at? Thanks for the info

Torsion bolts out. Half Inch gap from bump stops to axle. 2 1/2 is way to much you'll lose all kind of hitch height.

air pressure and tread pattern can make a huge difference depending on what kind of track you have, also make sure you weigh as much as is allowed for your class and the added is as far forward as possible
