It's funny, I always tell people that the "funnest" version of the Lightning is a mid to high 12 second truck. No problems, no worries, no issues. People look at me like I have 3 heads when I say that, knowing that I had an 800rwhp 10 seconds truck.
But once you reach that low 12 second/high 11 second point, things change. Now everything on the truck is more critical. You can't just get in it and not worry about anything anymore. Plus, you get used to the power and want to go faster, and by the time you're done you've got a trailer queen, or at least a truck that's not practical anymore.
Stock truck with a tune, pulley, filter kit, and plugs. A 12 second truck with about 390rwhp or so. That's the best way for maximum enjoyment out of these trucks, IMO.

When I was running 12.8's all day long as consistant as can be, i had 0 problems. I started to step it up a bit and nothing but headaches. Every problems became a bigger credit card payment from month to month.
