I like that. You spank 'em by 18-wheeler-lengths (help me out here) and they still have the nerve to say that didn't have traction.

A buddy of mine that works at a local Kragens has an S-10 with a LT(S)-1 motor in it. He says he's running 11's. I think I need to take a digital camera down by there one of these days. Moral: Watch out, some S-10's might be sleepers.

Thumbs up

An S10 with a V8 becomes a hot rod. Bt still, a nice sleeper.

I saw a 98 S-10 that was on a very strict weight diet. No fenderwells, no emissions equipment, not totally stripped down; but, you could see the ground when looking in the engine compartment. It had a ZZ3 crate motor with a Ford 9" and bed mounted gastank and battery. It also had a full interior. Two years ago, I saw it do 13.3; this past season it did a 12.7. The outside looked totally stock.

A stock S-10 beating a 2nd Gen Lightning?

Who says we don't have a drug problem in this country?

The only way a stock SS-10/eXteme would cross the finish line first would be if we pushed it..

The eXtreme is basically just an effects package. Chevy did/does make an SS version of the S-10 that's different from an extreme. A friend of mine has one. That said, its a stock S10 with a claimed extra 15 horses from better breathing. Certainly nothing for a Lightning to worry about.
