beware the word "stock"...a few simple mods to a Lightning will make it go like its namesake!...and the newer it is, the faster it will be...they keep making that truck better each year.

Local autobody shop in Ohio ... McCarthy's just put your name in a bucket and they drew a winner. It was a 12,000 check to spruce up your car. Only thing was is they had to do the install and you had to pay the labor.

Nicely i share the car so the other owner paid for the labor!

Lightnings are pretty fast. They are tough and have a wall of torque in that motor. The only thing is they have no traction off the line, so maybe you could get him there. Might be kind of tough but it sure would be nice to say you took out a Lightning (assuming you are talking about a newer one)!
