Until someone goes out of control and kills himself or someone else. Then all the lawsuits and questions come out.
I agree going that fast it could get ugly in no time, then it all starts again with "how and why did this happen" just should'nt be done period

"how many times did you street race when you were younger ? NONE ? man.... i did a TON ...0 injuries , 0 deaths." Hey, it's a cool vid and a cool truck. Not questioning that. Just bringing up a point.  And I did ALOT of street racing with the same results as you, but that doesn't mean it is right or safe. I also don't do it anymore. And it only takes 1 death or injury to really mess up several people's lives.

That guy came to the midnight drags in Tulsa OK several years ago. He used to have a helmet with a spike on top of it and he made his passes with the dog in the truck lol. I remember walking past it in the line and just glancing at it(wasn't horribly out of place at the midnights lol). He fired the fuel pumps to move in line and I had to go back and take another look. That truck with the sound of 2000hp worth of electric pumps got me curious lol. I hung around to watch them tech it and got to see a peek under the hood  .

Wasn't there a Dodge truck at the Mopar Nationals about 5 years ago. Ladder rack, company logo on the door with a small block doing some killer times?

Yeah and it was in MCG too. SB with some spray IIRC, an overdrive A833 and backbraced 8-3/4. In the 11's and still used as a work truck.

Also its hard to see in the video but when it leaves it carries the drivers side wheel like 2 feet off the ground for about 100 feet
