Just drove a Lightning

Yo guys out there in warzone..Today the surfa drove an L..a 2000 white L owned by a friend of mine//All it has is an airfilter and computer and thats all besides the chrome L rims....

Well

what i am about to say may require use of a Flamesuit..But here it goes....I'd like to own one.....but in too deep with RTD2

SVT.... hats off to ya..what tuning precision,what style,what finess,,I am impressed and enjoyed takin blast up to 80 mph(backroads)showin 8 lbs of boost and climbin(3/4 throttle)...The L doesnt feel like a full size truck when ya drive it...It rides like a cadillac till ya get to "agressive street" then ya can appreciate the handlin and agressive performance ride(yep performance ride gang)...
The transition into boost is smooth..flawless
furious acceleration and R/T guys..the myth about no bottom torque is just that "a myth"for 330 cubes that bugga wants to scrub tires....i went into store parking lots (on purpose to have the oppurtunity to ACCELERATE
(HAHHHHHHHH what a rush)this truck should run high 13's by the way it feels..Very impressive full size truck...OOHH!! The 4 wheel discs brakes.... yikes..Badasssssss

I have been able to feel what i have achieved with my truck and smooth transition i have into boost and i now have a new outlook on my approach and having the oppurtunity to drive a finely tuned Factory hotrod..... i am satisfied...Compliments to the Chef(svt) mahalo's for da ride Paul....
I need to get to work and F'k with my truck
I'm a tuner........yeehawwwwwwww

I'm glad you enjoyed it! I think every R/T and L owner should test drive both vehicles to give them an appreciation for two fine trucks. You mentioned it should run high 13's with those mods, but I'm betting quicker than that. You two should swap trucks for a couple of 1/4 passes some day.
