I think it's February's issue. I haven't received mine yet either and I can't find them in the stores.

Talking Wow,

Man, there sure are some ugly dudes driving them pretty trucks. J/K! Looks like you guys had a pretty good time in spite of the rain.

I might not have been the fastest , but I easily won the reaction time shootout. All 4 runs in the .5s.

1-.519 rt
2-.584 rt
3-.535 rt
4-.533 rt

Avg .542

I got my issue today, from a local speed shop, my MM&FF subscription issue never comes for weeks after everyone else gets them .

I love the article, it came out great, but unfortunately MM&FF has some times screwed up. They list Jims "best ever ET/MPH" as 10.50/128 when his best to date is a 10.56. They also listed my "best ever ET/MPH" as 10.78/128. Now I know that I never contacted them to let them know about the 10.48@132 after the shootout, but geez I had a better ET and MPH than what they listed, at the shootout itself, which appears an inch down on the page from the "incorrect" time. LOL.

Because it was a Gen 2 shootout. MM&FF did a Gen 1 Lightning shootout years ago when the Gen 1s were still new.

Well congrats on the aticle anyhow. MM&FF does screw up, but Super Ford was worse.

Sal,
I thought they took that info from the tech sheets that we filled out.
That whole thing about the vettes is what I had written on my tech sheet.
