Post Syclone/Typhoon

Any of you Lightning owners ever race a Syclone or a Typhoon, those trucks can move, especially the Syclone, they say that its the fastest truck ever produced, I'm gonna have to agree with that..

stock for stock i think it would be a good race. the cyclone is kind of like the buick grand national, with some simple modifications they can run low 12's-11's AND and a hole lot faster if you want them to. plus they are awd so traction is excellent. when they first came out hot rod tested one and it ran 0-60 on wet pavement almost as fast as dry pavement.

I know a guy with a Typhoon, I can run him in the 1/4 mile but he jumps off the line way ahead of me. As for fastest, his is speed limited to I think 115 MPH, I can run away from him on the highway. I think he runs about a 13.9 stock as a rock and about 70,000 miles. He can't use it as a daily driver, it's not exactly reliable.
