7 second lightning

i have read somewhere that there was a Gen1 7 second lightning somewhere, but there are people who dont believe that a truck could do that, does anybody have a link to a site that has pics, or videos that prove this, thanks

Its an all steel body minus a proglass front cap and all lexan. Built by Racecar factory in Orlando Florida..all TopGun 4-link components and lamb strut front end. Im about a mile from the shop that built the motor for this truck. Tuned by Steve Lee with Accell DFI and 188# injectors or something. It has been revamped several times with different motors. But Jasons current combo should be the 440 cubic inch stroker motor with 2 Big-Thumper turbos. I seen it run on the dyno and I was in absolute awe as I watched it make like 1740 hp and over 2000 tq......
