actually, having it up makes the car run faster. with it down you get more drag because the wind that flows off the top of your truck drops right down onto the gate. if its up it creates a big air pocket and the air flows right over it therefore giving you as little drag as possible. but yea, if you go rigth as you see that last yellow light then you wont red, you'll be fine. unless you want to go on tthe first one and get a -.9 something like tony

Plus i keep a lot of trash (empty bottles, cans, exc.) and i dont feel like bein pulled over by a game warden again for them flyin out (one 20oz deer park water bottle= $160 ticket). that was also the first (and only) time ive run my truck there so far.
