Is it a Ford or a Mazda? uhh its a Fazda.


i know my ranger will do 110, but ive no reason to be going that fast, and living where i do, it has no business going that fast.
 
110MPH and hitting even a small deer... I'd suspect more than just frontend sheetmetal and a bit of alignment work.... Living in the Pac NW, I've seen a deer hit by a f250 with brushguard at 80mph and it was NOT a pretty sight. the kinetic energy of 100lbs+ of meat at that speed... yeah.... I'm really suspecting kph. Hell... a 32oz slushy at 110MPH was enough to hole a windshield on mythbusters... and ~2lbs (aka 32oz of water type liquid) is a far cry from the ~138LBs of an average Mule Deer yearling/female. Or, worked out to joules and then converted to pound-feet of force... 55,786LBF... or just shy of 28 tons of kinetic force transferred. Granted, since the deer absorbed like half of thatm you're still talking 14 tons of force transferred.

:shok: :icon_confused: huh!?!?!?!?!?!?! ENGLISH DUDE!!!!!!!!!!
 
Wow i still understand math geek! I haven't lost it all. That all made good sense to me. BTW that mythbusters episode was awesome.
 
if it was MPH it was very stupid, theres no need of doing 110 mph unless your in a plane or somethin
 
I can see 110 in a controlled enviroment (properly maintained road that has been properly closed off, or at the track), but not in a Ranger. And obviously if there was a deer in the road, it was not a controled enviroment. That's just irresponsible. Kinda surprised it did not turn out worse
