Lightning can tow as much as a 318 Dakota (or close to it, like 5000 lbs).
When you get it setup, comeon down to VMP. I know of at least 3 lightnings
that run up there (1 of which is a co-worker of a buddy of mine, and my
buddy drives a WRX running 14.2-14.3). One of the L's runs 12.7, another
runs 12.9. Think the other runs 13.5. *sigh* Gimme about another 5
years, maybe I'll be able to scrounge up enough $$$ for a SC by then.
Actually, ya know what, maybe they'll have the Charger out and have the 6.1
HEMI in it then :-)

I'm hoping for 12's once it's all said and done, might have to wait for
cooler weather to get there. I'll find out on Saturday tho, gonna run her
at Cecil :) I could probably do VMP with some notice, we'll have to see how
things go on Sat and whether or not I've got some competition for them.
