Run in the 04 SVT Lightning

I got in a little race from a 30mph hit and ran all the way up to 80 something against an 04 lightning. I only lost to by a half of a car length and I only have the exhaust and ignition upgrade installed right now that's in my sig. I think he was also stock but had some exhaust. I was very surprised that I kept up with him pretty much. What do these suckers run??

Hard to say...some Lightning are quicker than others as in any make/model.

I think high 13's is the average for the later model ones, pretty impressive for a truck, considering Dodge's hemi is way out there in the 16's somewhere- on that note, the one magazine that I have seen test an SRT-10 so far got a 13.6, some of which being traction limited, of course, even with the monstrous rear tires.

Weather is the biggest factor in Lightning performance.

Times in sig are with 4lb lower, tune, cai, shift kit.
