Lightnings were never the fastest at any point. The quad r1t is decently quicker to 60 and was out well before. Ford didn’t chase that crown.

Yeah, but not often (yet) that I encounter one that I'm fairly certain is faster. Like this or the TRX... That said, I'm not in the habit of proving it very often.

Just curious, were you at least faster off the line? Like in top end faster?

Sadly, I didn't really get a chance to race him. We were meeting there for lunch and he showed up in that; it is one of several of his cars that, I suspect, could beat me. It was a good lunch though, and I did beat him to the check!

I’d love that lower bumper for the Lightning…

I had to beat a Chevy truck very early one morning on the way to work. He was an old guy like me and we were going the speed limit after 3/4 of a mile but he was in my rearview mirror :)
