I heard there was a gen2 lightning out at the Gwinnet meets this weekend claiming to be the fastest street truck that runs around Atlanta... especially from a dig.
I think I need to go ahead and call BS on that, but Id like to hear more details about it first ;)
And Im not talking about trailered race trucks, such as the gen1 lightnings that Ive seen trailered around on Barrett. I dont count those as "street."

lol, i talked to this guy for like one second. he's a retard man, there are two black lightnings in gwinnett, one driven by a big tall country guy with a huge redneck accent who claims to be (the fastest truck in GA), and one driven by a white guy with the mtv thug look.

Im not getting your point about laughing. Ive seen a couple gen1 lightnings in Kennesaw, and Ive heard from reputable sources that they are fast as shit. But given Ive seen one of them twice, both times on a trailer, I have to presume its not really a streetable vehicle.
Are you disagreeing?
BTW, if you know this particular dude I opened the thread about, let him know some people are curious to see it run.

no, what I said came across wrong....I think the guy in question is full of shit. What I was laughing about is the lightning you are more than likely referring to seeing on a trailer on Barrett -- its much more rediculous than you probably realize.

There is a Maroon F150, running around on a trailer that I would be willing to bet is one of the fastest in the southeast.

There is a older black lighting running around barret that I have raced and it ran damn good. From what the guy told me it was a big cube motor with a 300shot on it and I ran him off the bottle and he pulled my Z06 with longtubes and exhaust so if he did have a 300 shot I would say he would be in the fastest truck catagory easy.

That truck is broke right now, plus theres a turbo ss truck on the southside thats more then able to cover its own.

OK, back on topic now.

I think my v6 s10 is faster than these two lighnings in gwinnett.

If someone knows them, please pass that along and find out what they want to do about it.

wow. that truck should be able to cut a 2.0 60'. You get the launch worked out, and there is your high 13 the way it sits... MPH is pretty close to expected.
