Car is tuned up and ready for some track times thanks to Jeff. Done a few mods and have the 15x10 racestars ready to go.

1st Marauder I've seen with dumps.
What are your mods?

Also, ever driven a 4500lb brick with slicks?
It's scary.
If you dont have the appropriate front tire, you have a good chance of kissing something concrete, as many members have discovered.

It's a 03 cobra pullout without a ported eaton and 100 shot. I have a set of front runners if it doesn't run straight with the factory fronts

Big cars with slicks do get a bit of a swagger on the big end! Drag radials are a lot more comfortable.

I was aborting too many runs with the Cheater Slicks so I switched to DR, just a little bit slower, and have not aborted a run since.

A ported eaton car with a 100 shot will go low 11's all day long with driver mod.
