Default Bone stock 2018 5.0 13.46@103.

Impressive. Truck had less than 200 miles, bone stock and hit the speed limiter before the end of the track.

That is insane! Faster than the '99-'04 Lightning. Faster than what a stock S197 mustang runs.

Yes, I only know of one bone stock Lightning that ran quicker, but in perfect air. BTW, RCSB 5.0's usually are the quickest!

I believe with a just good tune & fuel, 12.9's will be the norm with these.

My '00 lightning did a best of 13.53 at 101.5 stock, while most seemed to run 13.6-13.7. Crazy.

It's been my experience the best times are turned in by the better (experienced) drivers.
