Well, Laney and I went north of Frisco recently for a "leisurely afternoon". :D

I got a little "happy" with the go-pedal and started spinning sideways...let-up and got back in it and up to "speed" :twitch: toward the end of the .mpeg.

I see now, after "practice", that 1/2 to 2/3 throttle is best on take-off ... once you get rolling, nail it ! I've read about this before with the L and it's true.

Keep in mind, this is my first Lighting movie-making iteration after my "PR-mercial". :D

Ronald,

For a minute I thought you were considering hitting the drag strip with some of us, and you were getting ready. Dammit, don't play with me like that, man! :nono:

Nice video, but we need to get you a chip, pulley and a line mod valve, son. You can spin that Eaton a helluva a lot faster and scratch on the shifts, and that makes the truck much more fun to drive!

So, when are we going to break you down and get you to buy some mods??
