Default Me vs 03 Lightning VID's

Well, i was dissapointed when i found out how slow the lightnings were. I raced one of my friends lightnings that was stock and i KILLED it. well he added a smaller Pulley and a CAI. According to the site that he ordered it from it added 80hp(but u know how that goes) so we raced again and i still won... By alot.. Sooo i dunno i thought the lightnings had more ***** than a GT.

Race #1 I miissed Third Twice, then continued racing and still won(friend cut off video after i missed 3rd) I still cant shift into 3rd . Soo thats a new Tranny comming.......
Race #1

Race #2 This was done about 15 minutes later.
Race #2

Hoep yah like the videos, yes i know its a Truck but hey, its supercharged right? I used to look up 2 these trucks [:'(]

Nice runs! It looks like your friend really really sucked at driving, because it doesn't make sense that you'd put so many lengths on him.

Weird. Did he do a tune for that smaller pulley? If not, his truck could be running like **** and pulling tons of timing. I can't figure out other than that why he couldn't at least hang with you... those trucks are pretty badass.

I ****ed with a kid I know that has one a week or two ago. He tried to pull a flyby after we got on the highway, so I dumped it and got on it and started reeling him in, but then he shut it down. [:@]

I'm surprised you pulled him so bad. Don't they have 380hp stock?

lightnings run somewhere in the 13s stock...

I've seen some with basic bolt-ons and gears running high 12s.
