how would a stock lighting measure up gainst a lt-1? j/w my buddie has one and wants to race.. i knwo there hella heavy and have major traction issues...so i dunno...but he does have a fair bit more power...j/w thanks guys

 

lightnings are slow, race him and bet some money

 

you can take him, pink slips craig, pinkslips

 

Yeah I took out a pulley and chipped lightning on dr's when I was almost stock. . .you should be ok .

 

My buddy was wondering the same thing. There is a brod that he works with that talks sh_ to him about here boyfriends lightning. I told him to be carefull but after reading this I will tell him to bet some $$$.

 

yeah they slow. you should have no problems.

 

yeah they feel hella fast from inside, but man are they slow, i would bet a j body would be able to take it on the highway.

Stock for Stock: an LT1 will be very close with the older 360hp Lightening
the newer 385hp Lightening may edge out a stock LT1????

 

your lighting may have some mods, you may know how to drive it or whatever, but around here i or any lt1/ls1 car that i know of have yet to lose to a lightning around here.....so yeah there slow.

 

Gen 1 lightnings are slow......Gen 2 lightnings are respectable to all car lovers. My lightning is stock down to the paper air filter and I ran those times. I am probably not going to mod it...The thought of adding more boost just not seem safe to me. Do not get me wrong...I love F bods (I have one ) but I just love the way this truck looks and handles. The lines of the truck just mesh together nicely.

Dude I love the Lightnings too . .. Im in the market for a mini van of all things and If I could pull some money out my *** a lightning would be the pimp'tist of delivery trucks

Gas consumptions pushing me towards a honda odessey van thought

Doesnt change the fact your trapping 100 mph . . . . still slow for most the peeps in the PNWR .

 

These times were done when it is NASTY HUMID in the south....Talking about 85-95 degree weather with 100% humidity. I wish I was up north with you guys....I then could pull better trap times. You would be surprised at the amount of fuel I use. Just cruising to and from work (66 miles round trip) 5 days a week, I burn a little less than 3/4 of a tank. Not as good as the van you are getting, but still damn good for a High Horsepower, 2 ton, aerodynamics of a brick, truck
