There are laws in decent society that everyone lives by, and putting that freakin wing on that truck should be against one of them.
When you post pics of your truck on a board with
"Rate this vehicle"
above it, you are kind of opening yourself to potential criticism. He may be the nicest guy in the world, but his truck is ugly as sin.

Yes, I feel everyone has the right to do what they want with their property within reason. A wing on the back of that truck, although it wouldn't be my choice, would be within reason.
I just might paint my car with polka dots just so you can come over with your bull horn and laugh track, but don't expect to use that bull horn and laugh track very long. Ever heard the phrase "laughing out your ***"?
No hard feelings as I was just having a little fun with you. I just don't see the necessity for the constant put downs and trash talking. I've seen some of the most hideous customized vehicles around, and I might make comments to my friends with me, but to do it in a public forum, to a person who didn't even post their picture here and ask for opinions, is for the weak and immature. Just my opinion.

Immature? Sure. And that is supposed to be a criticism, I guess. If growing up means I can no longer take pleasure in the public humilation of some lying-*ss little tasteless, ricer-wannabe twerp, I'll stay immature. In the immortal words of Dan Quayle, "I wear your scorn like a badge of honor."
But weak? I doubt you can find a single person on this planet who would concur with that assessment. Let's put it this way -- Vegas has the odds of you putting a bullhorn up my, well, you know, at somewhere between slim and none.
But let's direct the hostility back to where it belongs -- the truck:
and its owner:

For the record, I have been thinking of getting a wing very much like that one for some much-needed high-speed downforce.
BUT, it will be laying in the bed well covered up on the way to and from the track.

just a little in fo for ya dude the fastest lightning on the book stock with just bolt on is 10.59 @126mphdid ya know lightning are in the guiness book of world records now as well,the fastest production truck made at 147mph ,,thats cause we know the factory computer shuts it off at that speed"
Dear god. I don't even want to break this down and rip it apart, I need some hard liquor.
Where is this truck? If anyone lives around or has seen this lightning, make sure it has an "accident". Off of a cliff. While on fire. With owner inside.
So are we like BMW and Benz? Electronically limited to 147 mph?

Vegas has the odds of you putting a bullhorn up my, well, you know, at somewhere between slim and none.
Even though I never directed it at you, I think you looked at the wrong odds chart. Afterall, I've seen your picture, but you haven't a clue what I look like. Appears to be a less than 5 minute mod. Call me for an appointment.
As for his time he posted in the other forum, sure it was probably fabricated. Who cares? Obviously a few of you get your panties in a bunch because somebody isn't telling the truth. Boo hoo! Let's cry about something meaningful. A lot of what goes on in this forum is bullchit. Besides, I'm sure you have told a few lies in your life Tim, afterall, you're a lawyer aren't you? j/k

Sorry, things like these I just have to call people on.

Interesting paint scheme. Nothing I would really do, but interesting to say the least.
Oh, and after reading your post to RTKILLA (who could school you and show you whos the pimp) I was wondering what exactly your modifications are. Who made your pistons. Did you get forged rods? I guess you have the "Ford Performance Racing" supercharger. Someone who would mention a $500 exhaust should mention a $3000 blower increase. Because your stock blower/pistons/rods/valves/tranny can NOT bring you to the 10's. And a lot of people will tell you the only way to get into the 10's without throwing a rod will cost more than $10,000.
Not that I don't believe you, just wondering if you had a video, timeslip, or an ounce of knowledge on exactly what would be needed in a 10 second Lightning. Oh, and how did you shave 800-1,000 pounds? I dunno who tuned your engine, but your 0-60 is too high, and speed is too low for a "10.61" I was also unaware Ford Racing Performance Parts made Brake/Tranny/Driveline/Ignition/Intake/Strut upgrades. Oh yeah, because they don't. Send me a timeslip: sporkdevil@yahoo.com just so I'm not as confused.
His email to me:
Just for your info so your are not confused
For one the web site does not list any of the parts that are used for a lightning;
2 you don't even have a ride posted,
3 I know for dam sure how much money it takes to make one go that fast a total of 11,320
If you must know,
4 the there is not a dam thing stock in it at all;
Let me tell ya what's in it so you7r are not confused anymore
90mm mas sensor
Johnny lightning air intake
JDM single blade throttle body
The intake has been ported as well.
JDM flip chip.
42 pond injectors
Kenny bell boost a pump
Yes there is a Kenny bell flagella on with a 2!/2 upper
Kenny bell boost a spark <plasma>
685lift 694 duration lunatie cam with raised springs
There is a stroker motor in it now with the lightning block
Heads are ported and polished
Rotating assembly is balanced
blower pistons from jdm
Intridium plugs
jdm long tube headers
Electric water pump with dual fans and a 160 thermostat
Billet torque converter.
Johnny lightning valve body with the line mod
Aluminum drive shaft with 373 rears
And you are correct the 0 -60 time is wrong the correct time should be 2.8 seconds
And did I mention there is 150 shot of juice coming from NX Express as well so
I'm not a little school boy punk out here playing with momma and daddy's money like other people I am the real deal so if you have a pink slip or do you even have a car just put the pink slip on the dash and ill gladly hook it up a and bring it home with me it wont be the first one either
By the way he cant school nobody cause momma and daddy is paying for the truck and he only gets to drive it when he is not on restriction, and the blower mod is 3276 dollars just so you know
