Have those people you know been running it on completely stock engines? How much boost?

Default Very Funny

The stang guy is funny! If he had pulled along side me on the free way I would of laughed! Put up that stang at the track with some numbers! I don't race on the freeways or streets. Almost lost a lot going 160 in a 70 mph zone back in 76 with my 72 vette back in Colorado! Fortunatly nobody got hurt (except the guys pride 70 trans am) and the cops never had a chance to catch me, but thats the last time I risked the live of myself or someone else.

The lightning is more versatile than the Vette, and if you can get your speed fix from your bike, I say go for it.

If you were in a C5 I wouldn't even look your direction, much less pull next to you.

I've never liked 'muscle' trucks or SUVs. They just seem like one of those vehicles that would be fun for about a week then you're asking yourself what did I just buy. It will always suck on gas, suck as a truck,will never handle as good and will more then likely still get beat a the drag strip.

My buddy has a white 2001 WS6 six-speed with around 110k km. for sale. He hasn't advertised it yet so if you want some more details send me a p.m. and I'll give you his contact info.
