I'm in Torrance, one block from Redondo Beach, one mile from the ocean, $1500 from Bassini exhaust. This is fertile racing ground with lots of LS1's, WS6's, C5's, and lesser challengers like Boxters, Bimmers, and other assorted yuppies that become shocked to their toes when humbled by a truck? Around here, however, street races are short (200'to 1/8th mile), not a lot of open area w/o taxmen everywhere.

RKamins,

What?!? Downgraded HP? Where'd you hear this vicious rumor? I need confirmation.

BTW, please excuse the "infiltration" by a TX owner-to-be. I went to HS in Fullerton and college at UCI and like to keep up w/ what's up in SoCal.

SHOCKER,
I was in the class of '91 (87-91) so we were there at the same time for a couple of years. Good to see another UCI alumni has great taste in trucks!

I live in San Leandro. New complete black paint job because it got keyed. Thanks to all for sympathy expressed on my previous post, and LA Smith and Sons for great paint job. All came out well. Have seen two other Lightnings locally both red.

PD, I haven't seen too many L's in this area; a black one a few weeks before I bought mine, and another white one an hour before. Both on PCH in Manhattan Beach.
2cool99 (Debbie), Was that you in front of the new TraderJoes that night? You had just run that 13.8, and I remember telling you about the F-150 message board. Good to see you here. There's so much info on this board, it's an encyclopedia.
