Lightning...Impressed

I was filling up at a local gas station, and a black Lightning pulled up beside me. I looked at his truck to make sure it was a REAL Lightning, becuase alot of people around here make "mock" lightnings. It was a true one, w/ the duals running in front of the rear tire. I said nice truck, he thanked me, and I asked him if it would move pretty good(him being a young guy early 20s, I knew he would show off), and he said you're about to find out. He pulled out, on Highway 87, and gunned it, I'd say he was up to about 75-80 within like 100 yards. That truck woudl definently beat most of the Mustang GT's around here.

Hemi's don't even try me when I'm running around in my L. They act like they have blinders on. I know I would stomp them, but I'd just like to smack one back into his place.
