    Stroke Lightning started a trend!

    It looks like Stroke Lightning has started a trend for other shortened Super Duty trucks. Furo Racing in Wisconsin is building one for a customer. The first thing I noticed is how they cut the frame straight off instead of notched like Gene did. I think that is going to be the weak part of the frame if you start cranking up the torque! Check out the pics.

    And here is another site that is making a Stroked Lightning truck. It sounds like they also straight cut the frame and plated it. This one is even red and they call it "Thunder". We all know that Thunder follows Lightning!!
