New Best! 7th Fastest Gen II...

...on the 1/8th mile list . Granted if all the faster guys would post their 1/8th mile times I would probably be 30th or so, but I am still happy with my time.

Track was hooking great today.
Best 60 foot was a 1.608.
Best ET was 7.554.
Best mph was 90.2.

What's it run in the quarter? Never been. It is over a three hour trip to the nearest 1/4 mile track and there are some mods I want to do (nitrous, skinnies, powercooler) before I make the drive. Hopefully it will run in the 11s somewhere.

That's got to be an 11.xx second pass or very close to it now. Add the juice and I see a roll cage in your future.

red gen 1 94,
Nice burnout, but... Did your red Gen 1 get a facelift and color change? Just kidding, you must have been on this board for a while.

Thanks. That's my best 60 foot ever. I was surprised to see it. Wonder how low it has to get before the truck starts lifting a wheel. With the Lightnings weight probably pretty low.

My 7.58 1/8 netted me a 11.93(17th on the 1/4 mile list).So I guess a 'Welcome to the 11 second club ' is in order(or close to it).
Nice numbers.

VINNIE

Thanks Vinnie. I would like to think I would be in the 11s, especially after I put a 100 shot on the truck. Until I get to run the quarter though I don't want to claim anything. I'm not one of those "my truck should run..." kind of guys. Show me the timeslip is what I always say .
