My 1999 Lightning

Found these pics after finding the one of my 1994.
Not as good as the Gen1 pic, these taken at the local 1/8th mile drag strip, during our Car Club Bash race with other area car clubs.
Waiting for the tree to come down and then launching.

Yeah, back then (about 2001-2002) Bogart was just starting to do wheels for Lightnings, super bucks up $$$.
Those F150 oem aluminum wheels on the front were super light, and those 16" rear American Racing wheels with the Hoosiers was the best low buck setup out there.
Had a lot of fun with that truck, not super fast, 12.40's/7.90's, but rock solid, and I raced it a lot.
Cried when I was forced to sell it...

Beautiful truck, sad to hear you were forced to sell it. Looks like you made some memories in it though. The sport truck era didn't last nearly long enough.
