Does anyone think this could be possible...

For pure speed, the TQ figure is the truly crazy part of it but if I were to put a trailer behind it I don't doubt it would feel like its not even there. I kinda don't want to tow anything with it though be cause at that point I seriously risk blowing up my rear axle. (still mostly stock) The maxima will be getting hub covers, underpan, front dam and an exhaust optimized for velocity (better mpg at low revs)

Are you going to use anti-reversionary headers?

How would I boat tail this? Please bear in mind I hate making cars look not-stock, I like pure OEM appearance.....but if its not too bad I'll probably do it. Yes headers are going to be AR

Lol to each their own. I wouldn't hot rod a 6,000lb vehicle either but my car does weigh 3800+ so I don't have a whole lot of room to judge lol. Tractor pull guys soup up much heavier vehicles lol

Tractors in the dirt are total opposite of cars/trucks on the strip.

Can't be done. I'll never get it—'a car pitched to the lowest common denominator is perfect for me.'

yes its 6000lb, also pulls mid 13s so its faster than a good chunk of cars and way better than other trucks

Are you referring to OEM look?

except the lightning is RWD only and is a smaller truck with a worse interior than mine and a much weaker frame. To say nothing of the looks.....plus if anything I would get an SRT10 (almost did, 24k miles one for 37k) but I didn't as it was not 4x4

You're right
