Well, after saving, and waiting for 2 years, I finally bought my dream truck!!! It is a 2001 Ford Lightning. She frickin hauls!! It was stock when I got it, but I put a 4lb lower pulley, cold air intake, and programmer in it. I hope to be able to run in the high 12's with Drag radials, and traction bars. The pics are in my gallery if anyone wants to look at it. Let me know what you think. Thanks, Joe

 

how did the lightning do against the c-5?

good looking truck,,,,,,drive smart!!!

 

I killed him out of the hole, and held him off by a trucklength until about 110. Once he hit 4th gear, he pulled on me bad! We are going to run again once I get the truck dyno tuned, and I have to regap the spark plugs because it has bad spark knock above 4000rpm.

 

I just got a lightning too. Mines a 2002 and black. I have installed my stereo system, tinted the glass and will be getting traction bars very soon. I will worry about getting a pully and all that once I figure out how to get some traction.
