How fast are Ford Lightnings?
 

I have a friend that bought a 99 svt lightning and I just turboed my civic. He has been talking so much ----, that he will smoke any 4 cyl turbo charged or not and smoke any import. I have a d16 vtec pushing 8psi intercooled and I don't think I can beat him but I was just wondering how fast his truck is cause it does not really feel that fast?

I thought they were heavy? Oh well I guess a SC V8 makes up for the weight.

I just saw two supercharged lightings at our local dragway here in Union Grove Wisconsin. I therefore can tell you that they both were close and ran 14 flat at 115 mph in the 1/4 mile. It was great while they were doing there burnouts in the waterbox because at the high rpms you can here those superchargers hissing from the bleachers like a bunch of jets. Very cool trucks but so expensive.
