bruiser04 Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 i have absolutely no traction off the line get awd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sprayed99 Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 Traction is relative to the work you do on the suspension. If you neglect the suspension, yes you will have little traction. Nemember AWD has a bit more power loss through the drivetrain. Also the AWD trucks take more money to keep running (front diff and transfer cases suck!)

Fireman31 Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 I spin a bit out of the hole, even with drag radials, but I am used to it.........knowing I can smoke out an intersection at a stab of the throttle is priceless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippy Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 The 2wd is just fine if you put the work into it. Caltrac's and QA1's are the biggest thing you can do in effort to get it to hook. Tire choice though is just as important and I often see people complaining of traction problems with a poor chioce of tire. There are many choices of good soft compounds out there including drag radials in 20" sizing. You will also want to make sure to buy a good diff as the stock Gov-Lock is a decent diff for using a truck as a truck, but not as a performance truck.

mcmahan Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 I love my RWD to me it's more fun than a AWD. AWD has it's pros and cons just like RWD if you are going to be racing a lot and want a SSS for drags then AWD is your best bet. Don't get me wrong you cam set up a RWD to jump out the hole well nut you will need suspension mods though. As far a daily driving RWD is ok when it's wet I have a slip here and there but that's just taking off and when it shifts in to 2nd gear. From first hand experience RWD SSS sucks in the snow and seeing my AWD friends just pull right through. I have never been stuck and just took it easy and made it ok just add weight over the rear axle. Being in the Army I have a endless supply of sand bags and Soldiers to fill them for me lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brunswicks SS Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 Ha I guess it takes a fellow smoker to get your grammer but as far as your question. Rwd is good for a mildy modded truck but awd does not have a problem lauching at all except if you get a 4k stall with 1000awhp like chase. I believe the fastest ss are awd at least most of them. Or you get serious u can get a comstom setup like flacos 8 sec reuck it lauches in 4 wd but then changes to 2 wd.. so its all up to u bruh bruh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
