Why do lightning owners....

Make so many categories for themselves??

Why can't it just be the fastest Gen 1 and fastest Gen 2. If I see another fastest longblock, fastest shortblock, fastest eaton, fastest KB, ANYTHING other than FASTEST GEN I OR GEN 2 LIGHTNING, I think I'm gonna choke someone.

I think it's pathetic that people feel so left ouf of a group that they have to invent mod categories to make themselves fit in. You are the fastest, or you are not, simple as that.

NOW, having said that, next year that may change when the interpretation of what is/what isn't a lightning is put to the test. But for the time being, can everyone please just STOP MAKING UP WAYS TO BE THE FASTEST.

Thanks

Tell ya how I'd classify any car wanting to race.

1) Additional power adders (nitrous or other types of non-OEM PSI producers)
2) Street radials vs ANY type of sticky racing tire.
3) ****ional equipment removed. (AC, radio, seats, safety, ect...)

I certainly wouldn't be the first.

But that means I have a goal. It doesn't mean I make a post that says "I'M THE FASTEST ON F1'S"

See the difference??

I have no issues with people who have goals for themselves I think that's awesome. But right now the only person in my mind who should be making any "fastest" proclamations is Johnny.

And I'm not even a JLP customer.

That's pretty agreeable.

I just get tired of the bickering around here about who's the fastest this that or the other. Right now Johnny is the fastest period. With that said I'd prefer chikin's truck over Johnny's because it's more what I prefer, but that doesn't change the fact that one guy is the fastest and thats all there is to it.

Don't you mean "quickest?"

"Fastest" is another category altogether.

Oh yeah, I forgot, LOL.

I mean quickest because we know that some of you are faster on the road. And some of you trap higher, so you're the fastest in the 1/4, but someone else is only the quickest even though he has a FASTER ET....

some people have to justify spending money on their trucks.


I simply enjoy driving it.
