i am not sure but i probably all ready make more power than jlp, or about the same power.

He said " 10 second street truck" It might just be the coolest sleeper ever. Trailer queens are for rich posers and wallet tuners. Jealous whos jealous

Yeah its pretty sick but if parish tubed his out and threw a tube chasis on it there would be no comparison. He is already this close to him now what do you think would happen with just slicks!!?? Not to bash the lightning cause its definatley pretty cool but it defeats the purpose of the whole project, experience, and joy of watching parish make new Street times that were never even thought possible with a street truck. I know a guy that runs a 8.77 in the 1/4, if you want to get technical about it, and its an old S10. Parish, by far, has a much greater accomplishment in my honest opinion.

The Lightning looks fantastic!!

I'm all about the sleeper look though.


In all the whole point is Parish did some good natured ribbing and it's coming right back at him. Racin is racin. It's who crosses the line first.

Yep, But I can't wait to see Parish run faster than JLP, and drive his truck home.
