I like the Lightnings, but if I were to buy any truck it would DEFINITELY be that new Ram with the Viper motor... that thing is INSANE..

If we race at any track, it should be here at Houston Raceway Park in Baytown texas. make it here in the fall. Holy **** perfect running weather at a sea level altitude. then most of yall can all get true track times and see runs like you have never seen before oh well. but if you all decide to do that im game to go where ever!

This one time, at band camp, I beat a Viper with my Tercel....oh wait, that's cuz he was parked....

Take it to the track, and settle it once and for all.

I agree. If 281's brother won't take it to the track for a fair race then I say he's no better than Bullitt. And I don't get why he wants to wait until he tunes it and does this and that. He claims to have beaten you with his truck the way it is now...so if that's the case he doesn't need to wait to install **** on his truck...just go to the track and race . You would get more props for having the sand to show up and race (even if you lose) than by claiming a win with a ricer move.

Just incase 281 and his brother were planning to show up at the track in 10th of october....

I just called to confirm that they are open. They are closed until Feb. 04. I did not want you to actually show up, and find an empty track. Famoso Raceway if you would like to confirm here is the link to call: http://www.famosoraceway.com/
