In the corners Lightings suck. On the drag strip....that's a different story. They can hit over 500whp with minor bolt ons.

About the crash...That's carma. What goes around comes around.

Yes, one of my best friends has a 486WHP lightning and the thing is sick, cannot turn as well as our cars, but you have to figure, that sucker weights in at something like 5500 + lbs and is a brick when driving down the highway compared to our cars... it's bad a$$!!

IMO there is nothing cool about a fast pickup truck that's built terribly.

It's market: redneck, mash-the-whee-hah-pedal, straightline, NASCAR Truck Series junkies who don't have a clue what DRIVING is all about.

To top it off this guys acts like a major tool by tailgaiting a car with 10x the performance as his POS truck, crashes because he can't keep up, and acts like an ass when ToTheIX's checks to see if he's alright...LOSER.

If I were ever gonna buy a truck to tow my car, I would defiantly buy one. But for now I just use my dads truck.

There not bad trucks. I don't see were you would think they are poorly built. I'v never heard anything bad about them. Other than their poor handling.

wait going back to the original, would this lightning be red? Theres one that flies up west chester pike while i go to school all the time. I mean i speed a hell of a lot but this thing like swerved into the sholder to pass a car. I deffinatly spelled sholder wrong. But its like an older black man who drove it. Always on his cell too.

It has nothing to do with AWD. It has to do with an idiot driving a TRUCK trying to keep up with a car. I could outrun a lightning in a bone stock Civic in the turns.

I've whooped up on an EVO in the turns with my moms old SLK230.(Many TSTer's were there for that) So, the car has nothing to do with anything.

I think you were being generous to even stop and see what happened.
Of course the little peckered j bag had his pride hurt so he could not handle the gesture of the bigger man here.

Ah, 282 claims another one!

I agree with the guy that said 282 is no joke! I took a group of about 6-7 G35's from the greater Philly area on 282 about a year ago one saturday morning.....and lets just say a few of them almost lost it bigtime - and the others were def impressed by the turns and off-camber corners of that road.

If you could close down the stretch from Dtown to Glennmore for a few hours and just rip on it using both lanes and no cops etc - that would be one of lifes greatest thrills! Esp if u lost it into the darn Brandywine!!! LOL

:afro:

PS: The White lightning from the Glennmore area is def a nice truck...

Yea, 282 is a great twisty spot for sure. Some roads out in Unionville/West Chester/West Bradford area arent too bad either - but not as long as 282.

Nothing like being airborn off the jump right before "dead-mans curve"...

+1 with this comment, my buddy in w/ the lightning is an incredible driver and would probably surprise most people that doubt other vehicles...

just because we have evo's and sti's does not mean we are king of the road, we just have a car that is easy to go through the twisties with.

i love my evo and i know it is the mack daddy at handling, but no doubt other cars with half the technology in suspension could have a good driver outrun an evo/sti with an inexperienced big headed fool driving it.
