Vacation videos

I've posted some vacation videos of BADBOW.
http://www.youtube.com/user/SilveradoXST

Videos include: ZZ4 traction problem, 0-70 trying not to break the tires loose, night drive and tonneau cover at 70 MPH.

The custom 700R4 is awsome.

Pictures will be added to my photo album later.

Re: Vacation videos

It's awesome seeing how far your truck has come after all these years, dude. Your Geocities page is one of the first ones I came across 6 years ago, before I discovered this place or almost any other ones.

Re: Vacation videos

Hey, I said trying not to break the tires loose. The truck reached 70 MPH really quick. The camera kept recording up to 85+ and slowing down. Want a ride so you can comment on speed and video?
At the 1/4, a 20 second vehicle will beat me if I WOT off a dead start. I have to keep the tires from spinning and accellerate.

Thanks for the comments. I need to update my webpage to include links to my photos and YouTube videos.

Re: Vacation videos

I don't know how far you are from CDAUSA, but if your trips ever get you near him he'd be glad to help with a milestone pic. He loves them. And going from a broke 305 to a ZZ4 is definitely a milestone.

Re: Vacation videos

I need a posi badly. Right nowt it's dangerous to drive. I don't hammer it around unless it's on a straight line drive. Anything less than straightline is asking for trouble. Fishtailing is dangerous. I scared the poop out of myself recently with a wild fishtail. Traction goes from one wheel to the other very quickly.

Re: Vacation videos

I figured that was a one-wheel-peel. My truck was the same way before I put the locker in.
