Hey guys, my name is Jon and I come in piece from LS1truck.com. I own a shop in Circleville TX that specializes in chassis fab and suspension work. So I have a unbias outlook on the latest threads here and there. I was curious if anyone is in the austin area that goes to the nearest track. Little River. If so, their are a few of us that go on a regular basis and wouldn't mind some extra company. Just putting it out there. I drive a 95 ECSB with a 6.0 in it. It would be fun to hang out with some of the local Lightnings...:icon_mrgreen:

Yeah and the smilies are cooler too. We need new ones. I've been trying to find the Austin L's as well, but lightningrodder.com only had a couple.

I figured a hand full of Austin locals would be on here, maybe not. I asked one of my customers that has a lightning about this site and he said he has been here a few times but never registered. :tu:

Welcome Jon, thanks for the civilized intro :beer:
No problem, I personally prefer Chevys, BUT I run a business that deals with all makes and models, so I'm in the gray area. :icon_mrgreen:

Here are a few pics of the truck. Basically it has a 4link rear suspension AirRide, 6.0 swap with a 4l70e tranny, 3200 stall, Detroit locker, Motive 4.10s, LTs, Comp cam. Its still NA for now, turbo plans in the future. Best its ran at the track so far is a 12.40 at 109.22, and backed it up with two more passes at 12.42 and 12.43. The truck is daily driven and pulls a trailor occasionlly picking up metal loads, project cars, and trucks.

And here is a Vid at SAR when it when it ran a best of 12.67 back in Feb. We have done some more tuning and changed a few things up since then.
