oook????

Well I was cruising down the street a couple miles from my house! And all of a sudden I saw a F150 just fly by me! Im like ???? Why the fudge did he just do that? Is it b/c Im driving a Z? Or b/c he thinks he's bad *** with his lighting?? Well I just floored it and caught up to him. Luckly we got a the front of the pack and stopped at a red light. So we give each other the go! I start getting ready to get my *** kicked by this lighting, at least im going to try and keep up with it. The light turns green I floor it! Damn Ive never felt my car hit so hard, I get ahead by a car or so, the guy couldnt get traction!! He was catching up to me at about 60, the road was long! We hit 100 then I just let off. I had his by about a fender! Omg!! I thought I was going to get my *** handed to me!!! Mayb the guy didn't know how to drive the truck. He had His chick wit him and I was by myself. O well I guess that was luck!

Re: oook????

Well your car beating a Lightning isn't too unbelievable. Think about it, your power to weight has to be close, assuming it was a stock motor. The Lightning does weight roughly 4,670 lbs , its going to take alot of Ford power to get that much weight motivated.

Re: oook????

the truck had some exhaust work done as it had an aggressive tone. And I could hear the blower.

Re: oook????

Lightning has over 500lbs of torque. They're always a bitch to launch with street tires.
