Hello everyone.
I just bought an 00 Lightning 3 weeks ago, which is all stock so far. I absolutely love it.
Of course I have already been to the track for three passes this week.
1st pass = 14.09 @ 97.59, temp 66 deg.
2nd pass = 13.93 @ 98.92, temp 66 deg.
3rd pass = 13.81 @ 99.49, temp 65 deg.
Attempted a 4th pass but I was asked to leave - too fast without a driveshaft loop.
Can't wait to add to the truck and get used to driving it as it not a daily driver.
Anyway - I have been lurking in the shadows of the forum for about 1-1/2 weeks and hope to learn much from you all. Thanks to many of you already for the info learned regarding launch rpms.

Thanks. I would like to think I can get a little bit faster times stock, but I mostly wanted a base number.
The weather helps,I'm living in South Florida.
