Ran the Lightning at the NMRA event in Stanton

[StangFlyer]

Whelp, I was at the NMRA event yesterday in Stanton. I drove the Lightning there, so I figured I'd run it to see how it would do. Especially since it is bone stock and I wanted a base line on it. Although it was about 90 degrees (kills the blower) it still went 14.3 at 96 MPH. In the evening with cool air it surely would go 14.0 or even 13.9! Pretty damn good for a heavy truck.

I also spanked the Mustang LX I ran against too... ;-)




After that I didn't run it again. It was to hard to be up at the line taking footage, and then try to run all the way back to the pits to get the truck to run it when brackets came up. Oh, well... I found out what I wanted to any ways.
