A new T/F driver is partners with a good friend of mine. We asked what it's like. He said it's way different that you think. He said there's no "hit by a Kenworth going 100" feeling. He said it leaves (hard) then at about 60 feet (100 mph), the downforce from the wing is coming in & the clutch starts to tighten up & it's like it leaves again. At about 600 ft the clutch tightens up the rest of the way & it's like it leaves again. It drags the motor down & from there it's just let it pull & hang on!
