    Ever seen a Stroked Lightning?

    As most of you know, the red project truck was at SEMA last week. A guy there saw it and was really interested in buying his own "Stroked Lightning". This guy called RBP today to find out where we got ours from because the Ford dealer he called laughed at him when he asked for a "Stroked Lightning". He swore to the dealer there was such a model because he saw the "Stroked Lightning Badges" and they were Ford OEM.

    Good job on the badges Steve.

    That is hilarious! I personally think that truck is better than what you can get from the factory. That is one amazing truck. I can't wait until the engine gets tweaked a bit.

    By the way Gene, expect to shorten another truck. Rolland told me the guy will be flying out here in a couple weeks to talk to him about building one. Looks like your work is becoming very popular.

    That he has.... I love that truck and it has a special meaning to me because SoCAPS voted on a name for it and picked mine. I am glad to contribute to some confusion to those who dont know...

    In case we find ourselves starting to believe all the anti-American sentiment and negativity, we should remember England 's Prime Minister Tony Blair's words during a recent interview. When asked by one of his Parliament members why he believes so much in America , he said:
    "A simple way to take measure of a country is to look at how many want in... And how many want out." Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you:
    1. Jesus Christ
    2. The American G. I.
    One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.
