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

 

Thanks, I just watched it twice and I'm pumped up now

Is that even a real Lightning anymore? Aside from the blah blah VIN.

 

In my Book, "NO"

is that really a lightning? i mean what part of that thing actually comes from a lighting? Im thinking. . .frame maybe, and uhhh .. . the front end?

God damn fast tho.

Edit: crap, blown beat me to it.

 

body yes

everything else well hell no

 

*Waiting for the Gen1ers to chime in and give us hell about it being a Lightning.*

 

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......

 

it may not have anything origanal much anymore, but as long as hes got the badges and shows how fast trucks go

 

I heard that the truck may of been sold....but Ill find out this week....

 

It was on e-bay a while back, dont remember if it was sold or not though... I know I would buy it I had the extra dough... maybe then I could get to work on time for once..
