Default Another FNG thread..
It's time for another one of these "Hi, I'm a newb!" threads.

My names Kevin - I'm from Michigan and friends with that bastard, White Out.

I work in many fields - I've done everything from turn wrench as a mechanic for a living to a suit and tie job as a corporate sales rep dealing with Forbes 500 corporations..

For a car I am driving something a bit different than the rest of you all on here -- a 1999 SVT Lightning F-150. Nothing like 14 pounds of boost being crammed through a SOHC 5.4 tearing the tread off of my 295s!





I'm hoping to attend the rally this year - we'll see how it works with my other events I have this year. I'm trying to do a few things - the power tour, the 24 hours of LeMons, and this! It'll be a fun year!

Not a big fan of "fast" trucks, but certainly an interesting ride.

Hope you join us!

Well that should be interesting to drive across country...

Best part is, we can throw our trash in the bed of your truck as we ride next to you, we can tailgate.. I will bring my mullet wig : )

What kind of mods dfo you have?? Def. nice trucks, and easy to pull good number's/time's out of.

Welcome !

I remember the first time I ran into one of these with my then just lightly modified Z... embarrassed the hell out of me.. I was just gob-smacked... I was determined to do some serious work on the car at that point... I mean really, what Sport Compact car guy could hold his head up to getting run over by a truck... THEN of course I discovered it was a lightning, I felt somewhat OK with that beat-down then.. but still had to get some serious work done to be happy with myself.

I would LOVE to see that on the rally man... hope you can make it and good luck with your other events.

Uhm - it's got a pulley, tune, modified air box, and I port and polished the blower... Running 14lbs of boost thru the stock exhaust making 400rwhp/440rwtq... She's a complete sleeper full weight truck in the 12s..

She rides great, has a big ass gas tank, and a tonneau cover for all you jokers who think you can toss trash in the back! =D

Oh, and the ladies dig it - the beds carpeted
