Thumbs down Somebody challenged me to a race <Pic>

With all of this talk in Rob's post about obviously slower cars (VW's, Hondas, Ricers, etc.) wanting to race Lightnings, it is a coincidence that a client who is working at our place today saw my truck outside in the parking lot and wanted to race me. He starts off by asking me if that was my truck and telling me that he has got a fast truck too. He said that he has heard about the Lightnings but doesn't normally see any from where he is from (Northeast of the Poconos in PA). He then tells me all of the stuff he has done to his truck (mostly cosmetic) and says that it would be a real close race between the two trucks (But he never tells me what kind of truck it is). So I look outside and this is what I see...














I told him that there is too much traffic around here to race anywhere blah blah blah blah...

Talking No, not close with the stock engine

but I have had my **** waxed by a S-10 with a LS1 underhood.
It runs up and down 200th street on Saturday nights, here in Langley BC and takes on all who wants some. Usually wins too...

There is a local guy that does conversions with s-10's and blazers. Here is one project he sold on ebay a couple of months ago.
Stock Lightnings need not apply.

There are a couple s-10's w/ls1's around here that are fast as hell, but you should be able to tell just from hearing it run.
