Seems like its been forever Matias has been working on that build!

Chad's truck (fuzzy) has been putting down sick numbers for awhile for a street legal truck!

Check out the Full Chassis blog. Gary's truck, Steve's and Jason's truck are all gonna be setting new standards for race only Gen 2 L's.

Steve's truck...

Jason's truck...

Gary's truck is in the shakedown phase, working out the kinks and getting the engine dialed in.

Steve's is getting close to completion.

Jason's is a not quite as far along as Steve's

Agreed. All of those are just a race car that someone chose to hang Lightning body work on. The L world has gone down the same path as the fast street car races.
