    Hey anyone reading this. I saw some truck drag racing videos and one guy said that trucks are fast drag racers because they have 4x4. But if I used my 4x4 in a race won't that mess up my transmission because I thought u were supposed to go more than 55 in h4 and more than like 15 in L4. So wats going on here?
    Thx. Alex D.

    Our trucks do not have enough power to have to worry about it.

    Oh and IBTL.
