I think its funny to see theses fart can hondas with cold air intake an a 5 speed get beside an american car an watch the american car cream the honda. I hadnt tryed yet but i know i will beat them with the ranger when i plan an get money to do a 302 swap them ol boys will be hating the ford an wanna race everytime they get beside me.And theyll loose everytime... my buddie has a 99 cavalier z24 an he enjoys messing with me an my ranger i tell him if i dont win in the ranger i sure will in my dads car..hes motor is a 2.4 four banger mines a 2.8 v6

Watch out for the new eclipses though... that 6G75 is powerful - not as powerful as the TT 6G72 though.

I raced an older Rav4 and a honda civic at the same time... the rav4 was about even, the civic was one light back lol.

Also beat a GT mustang cause the guy got out of the throttle, not the car's fault(I hope)

Don't vote Democrat.
You boys aren't doing something stupid like talking about street racing, right?

We don't take to that around here.

there's more to life(and racing) than quarter mile times.

unless it's on a track.
there is still more to RACING than quarter mile times.

shit other than drag racing exists.

drag racing is fun to DO once in a while, but like nascar, it gets old fast.

I stomped a ricer with my 3.slow but I cannot wait to see their face with my 5.gogogogo. I do not condone street racing bc I use to do it. Try and keep it on the track guys.

I used to have one with a 4G63T... honestly the thought of racing a Ranger nevery really occured to me.

My truck had a hard enough time getting out of its own way... never raced it (and never intend to)

not disagreeing with you at all. just pointing out that the proper place to race is on a race track.

it is easier to fix and understand than "her"
she has a pretty nice Mitsubishi eclipse.... dont get me wrong for a 2.0 it goes but no match for my ranger

stock ranger??

reg cab 5 speed 4.0?

i see those in 2wd run low-mid 15 on occasion, seems even the n/a manual eclipse run mid 15


ext cab 4.0 auto, stock, in sub 16 is a rare miracle. i have seen them on tune with e fan run low 15 though.

fast ass ranger if it is ext cab 4x4 and if it beats current cars.
