i was at the news stand recently and saw some ford magazine that was touting the fastest street legal lightnings. there was one or 2 in the 9s and a slew of them in the 10s. we'll catch up, i hope.

That's some serious track prep at the line there. I usually only see that at national events around here. Sticky as hell to pull a monster 60' like that.

The local Lightning crowd worships that truck, it's the fastest Gen II street Lightning out there so they say.

I say who cares...Fast truck though.

We'll get there :)  Gotta keep in mind that there's a ton more folks modding Lightning compared to small group of us working with Dakotas.  But I think we're doing pretty good so far, getting faster and faster every year.  When I first got my truck it was a big deal that guys were cracking 13's n/a, we've come a long way.  Hopefully next year we'll see more trucks in the 10's, maybe faster :)

Oh, and that's definitely a badass L, 1.3 60' time, damn.

i agree with you, i've been around these trucks since mid '00 and had mine since mid '02 so i've seen the progress even though i wasn't quite in the know with all of you guys. what's funny is i was 14 and 16 in those years respectively. i'd love to be one the guys helping to push the envelope and i thought i was going to start a turbo build but i don't think i can justify it at this point. being 20 and in college while studying a profession that doesn't make good money (teaching) makes it seem wiser to save money than spend it. however if someone wants to trade me a RC for my 40k mile CC plus i dunno about 5 grand then i'd definitely start a build. i screwed up when i didn't buy a 4 bolt main .030 over block for 200 and then some guy sold a tial 44mm wastegate out from underneath me. i took it as a sign from god to give up before i sunk. so i shall remain forever slow, and i'm okay with that.

On the board, 1.39, some tracks post your 60' as you're coming down the track, Atco does it.  :)

interesting....up here it shows your reaction time....usually with the decimal one space to the right of where it should be

if that was our track it would be showing he had a .138 R/T

I've seen that too.  But with that truck, a 1.39 short time is believable.  I guess it could be either, gotta see the slip to know for sure :)

My vote goes toward 1.39 being the 60 foot. That truck took off.
