Sounds like that truck needs to go on a diet. However, that is very respectable for a truck of that size. I bet you pissed the GTs off, lol. Good kills.
....the guy in the new GT was a terrible driver....my friend was riding with me and we were laughing our azz's off the whole way down the track....it was great....the guy in the T-bird was waving all the faster cars by till he saw me pull up....then he wanted to race thinking it was gonna be an easy kill :D ...

A 90s T-Bird?? He should have waited for an S-10 pickup or stock Civic :lol:
Sounds like you had a lot of fun :D

Oh...here's the follow-up I was looking for.:o I couldn't remember your exact times.:D
It's good to see you had fun. It was funny hearing about it too, when you called me.
Keep in touch, and let me know of your assignment when you find out!

I would have thought it would have had a better top end pull.
4750 lbs...now you feel the pain "us" Lightnings guys have...still nothing compared to the big trucks...
What kills that truck on the top end is aerodynamic drag...the new Dodge trucks are really big....the frontal area is much more than even your Lightning...by the 1/8 mile the truck went 9.8 sec@70mph...it only gained another 15mph in the last half of the 1/4.....oh well the Dodge is now doing some towing duty..she's gotta move me my car and all my crap 1500miles......
