I skimmed thru that and it looks like Mr Evans is holding his own pretty good.

Diesel's have their own sanctioning body called DHRA for drag racing. They also run the circle tracks. They do real racing.

The are some Diesel trucks out there that not only will give the Lightning's a run for their money but will beat most of them. Keep in mind I didn't say all.

At 7000 lbs and some making well over 1000 foot lbs of torque it's an unbelievable ride.

Keep in mind Lightning's are not the only fast vehicles in the world, hell some Honda's can run circles around our trucks.

Yep, I have a Diesel too....

I was just trying to help a friend who has looked out for a lot of us. It doesn't hurt to send a kind word for a friend.

Is it true JDM has built the top 10 fastest Lightnings? Or am I misunderstanding?

Here's a quote from him:

"Out of the top 10 fastest Lightning trucks out their seven of them are using Brian's Truck Shop transmissions. I know this for a fact because I installed them and the seven trucks that I am talking about are our customers 10 second Lightning trucks. They make 640 horsepower 760 lbs-ft torque to the tire. One of the trucks I'm talking about won six national events. The other two trucks in the top 10 have Level 10 transmissions so that leaves one truck that runs a Monster Box. As a buyer and a customer I put my money on someone who answeres the phone everytime I call and always somebody in the building to accept a transmission when I send one their to be rebuilt which is not the experience I had with Gregg Evans. Just recently I sent him a transmission he had rebuilt for one of our customers. The customer was not satisfied with the transmission. It had sat on the FedEx shipping docks for almost three weeks. FedEx was getting ready to ship it back to us. I hope Gregg has straightened out this deal with the customer."

It definately is inferred !!!

Sal and Johnny and others may have a squabble with this
statement. But consider the source.......
