    Jesus 6.0s with my current setup would be plenty enough power. I could only imagine that with double the power

    I agree that a single can short wheelbase is a differnt beast and could get squirrely. I have change my frontvalving 5-6 times and I started with a pretty good starting point. Just started dialing in my rear bypass valving too. Still not where I want it, but close!

    Honestly I think speed was the issue. I followed u through a section and was getting raped, bucked and smashing whoops also. As soon as I passed u and got to speed it smoothed out. Think u will be really impressed what ur truck will do once up to speed. Obviously valving is a huge part, but I dont u got ur truck working to its potential. It is totally scarey to take a nice truck that u just threw a shit load of money at and just send her wide open through some whoops.... But that's why we build em right :) just my 2¢ from what I saw

    Ya I can't wait to see those drone videos!! When we were heading to go shoot I told gabe and them but I think they packing up to leave cuz heat. :bananadead:

    Pin it to win it..... I was hitting those big whoops at 70-75mph, as fast as it would go lol. Yes I had witnesses, in fact most the time I had to ask passenger to look at speedo so I wouldn't miss a sneaker whoop or dumbass quad not paying attention lol

    Overall I'm very happy with how my truck does in the whoops, she's getting so close to being great.

    And yes I scared myself a couple times and will be saving to get a cage lol. I do want to come home after a mob sesh!!!!!!! :D

    The scary part is taking that truck you just threw lots of money at through the whoops without a cage! I held back a lot before I had a cage. But I do agree, the videos I have seen looks like the speed wasn't there.
