I Beat a Chevy z-71 with my 1995 F-150 with a 302 that has a few minor mods from like 65 to 95/100
Then i Raced a 1992 F-150 with a 351with my 95' from a dead stop he beat my off the line about a half a truck length then i started to pull on him but we has to slow cause of a car in front, i know the kid and he came when i got off work and wanted to race again, so we pull onto highway together we drove together about 30 mph waiting for traffic ahead to clear, then we went and i beat him by like a truck length and still pulling on him till about 65 then i slow to 50 with overdrive off we went again beat him about a truck and a half to 80 then we slow again to 55 and i beat him again to about 80, i think its awsome that my little 302 can beat a 351, i want to race from a stop i think it would be a close race, im sure it will happen in the future, only makes me wish i would have been drivin my L, oh well

I won't call this a real "kill" as the competition really wasn't up to the task, but it was my first experience with invoking the power of my new 2002 L (bought Thursday nite).
Naturally, I drove the L to work on Friday, and on the way home, I was just cruizin' about 65 and takin' in the sunshine, when a kid and his girl, in a mid-70s Camaro RS shot by, doin' about 80 or so. They both gave me a look as they passed. I let him pull back in the slow lane up ahead, and then hit the pedal and caught up to them and passed, at about 80, then moved back over.
Well, he then pulled out and passed me (again about 85), then moved back in. This time, I moved over to pass him and when I got even with him, I waited until he kicked it down. I just gave the L a little foot (didn't even kick it down), and just pulled away from him like he wasn't even movin'. When I looked down at the speedo, I was doin' 110! Felt just like 45! I had to exit, and when they passed me at the off ramp, the girl smiled and waved: he didn't!
I love this truck!
