Default ranger drag race results: my duratec vs buddies lima

contender 1: 96, 2wd, single cab, short bed, m5od, 2.3 lima, 117k, ??? gears
contender 2: 03, 2wd, single cab, short bed, m5od, 2.3 dtec, 68k, 3.73 gears

race 1: from a dig: i get a good launch, smoke him by about 5 car lengths by the time we hit 40mph (lololol)

race 2: hes mad about race 1 and wants to go from a 15mph roll in 1st (bla bla new truck not used to clutch bla bla): smoke him by about 5 car lengths by the time we hit 40mph...

race 3: 30mph roll on the highway: his headlights were a twinkle in my rear view by the time i hit speed limiter (lol 92)

ride home: tries to pass me on a back road, gets momentum, and i see him in my rear view flying up next to me: i grab second and put him right back behind me...

Just so you know, Jim used to be a cop, and NO ONE on here approves street racing, or talking about it. Not to mention you own a truck not a racecar.

What he's trying to get into your head is that he's sure theres no 92 mph speed limit in your area, and that what you did was highly illegal. That and the owner of this site is a retired State Trooper. If that's not clicking, I don't know what to tell you...

Nope, street racing is not dangerous, not illegal, and perfectly ok to discuss on this site. That must not be why I'm locking this thread.
