Thats it i need to vent a little and maybe 'yall can vent with me....

I am sick and tired of all these STUPID kids always asking me to race them in my 4WHEEL Ranger. I have a bunch of 16,17, and 18 year olds in my town and around my neighborhood that keep asking me to race and if my truck has like 1,000,000 horses or something.
I explain to these r-tards "its 4 wheel, its heavy, its a truck not a Ferrari, racing is stupid.
its like all these kids masturbate to the speed limit sign or something i dont understand:dunno:
but these kids just nag nag nag "my car will kick your ass" and i say "well i hope so because its built out of plastic,balsa wood, and bondo"
its like they dont understand the whole power-to-weight-ratio.
and then the kids with the 2wd trucks, they are all like "im super fast i will totaly destroy you" and i say good i hope you blow up your wheel bearings because those stock ones are not rated to go 500mph"
jesus christ i just want to go slow and run over stuff WTF??
these kids get thier rocks off going 120 on the highway...well i get my rocks off in 4LOW going up a big ass hill in the middle of the woods and the damn thing is so steep you cant see the ground in front of you or even your hood for that matter!!
there i feel a little better now, anyone wants to add then feel free.

Amen Brother,
Hey, they're just dumbass kids, right?
I'm glad I survived my high speed big block younger years.
You should come farther north this fall,
we should get a 4wheel foliage run happening!
 
You think its bad now...see what happens after you drop in a V8. Reguardless the late teens is the age of speed and such; nothing you can do about it. Just do stupid things to screw with them and make them look more dumb. My favorite is at a red light rev like you are going to race them but take off completely normal when the light turns green. They take off like a blazin idiot all alone.

Well, my cousin Josh picks up vehicles that people want scrapped for free, or for cheap, and takes em out and field beats the hell out of them first. Usually with a bunch of people all to once partying. One time this guy that we barely knew was saying how the one car could kick Josh's trucks ass. Know what he did? Drove over top of it.
 
Been through that kind of life. As every teenager was talking 'fast and furious' and their tuned up POS imports. I kindly cruised through that stage in my 4-banger Ranger. 5years later, my Ranger is still running, actually, better than it has before. As for my fellow peers, their imports are either running like crap or they had to get another car.

Just follow your own path. Let them take theres. Only after time passes, will it show their colors.

THats what I would do,

I'm a teen and I want to put a v8 in my truck and make it my play toy, I am looking into a newer 2001 ranger with a manual and 4.0L 1,000$ and won't start.(maybe an easy fix?) But the v8 would be for sound and torque cause I haul a lot of stuff around including hopefully a 25' aluminum boat for halibut fishing. who needs speed. I go like 10 mphs over at the most.
 
oh i know what you mean. up here in vancouver it's super popular to take your pos import 4 banger and make it "look" like it goes fast. most of them don't even touch the engine. they just slam it and bolt a rediculous wing on the back, add some ground effects and paint it up. i'm pretty sure my 4.0 would beat half of these little bastards but i'm not gonna risk street racing. buy a fast car and you don't have to pimp it out, people know.
 
I was into "quick" in my teens.

but "Fast" didn't come until my late 20's
and when I say fast I mean FAST.

It amused me to be able to cruise 30mph faster than the top speed of the
State Police's Highway interceptors:)

There's this kid up in my neighborhood that always tried to race me in my first Ranger, 1.5L civic vs 2.9L Ranger. If he had removed all the bondo and excess metal, he might have stood a chance. Then when I got the Dakota he wanted to race me, needless to say when the transmission in the dakota won't get out of 2nd gear, I didn't stand a chance. Then when I got the second Ranger with the 31" tires and factory gears, again, I didn't stand a chance. I pulled up beside him a few weeks ago, in my PT Cruiser. Light turned green, I took off, spun my tires all the way across the intersection, shifted into second, spun my tires for another good 10 feet, and then I was gone. I've seen him since, but he won't pull up to the line. My PT is factory, and looks like a cruiser and not a racer, mine is also non turbo.

Nice to see your enjoying the PT Cruiser. :)
 
Happens all the time when I drive my Camaro SS.

I never race them. Not worth the possible repercussions to outrun a POS Civic with a huge exhaust tip.

Instant Flame Bait: Post on the Camaro message boards that you beat a Civic :woot:.

I've had them hit their hazard flashers indicating a "win" when I start off normal. Guess it boosts their ego. :dntknw:
 
yup they are all dumb ass kids one of them actually being my brothers friend, saying that he put 1,000 horses into an S-10, and when i asked him to show me it he said he crashed it and it got crushed at the junkyard.(i think he was just bustin' my balls just because i drive a Ford:headbang:)
but anyways, yeah i have to admit those stupid ricers really do make me chuckle...i know a couple around here that are built, but respect will be givin when i see it spin 3 gears and chrip 4th.
yeah the "super fast kids" around here are already changing thier "race rims" for thier pizzia cutters for winter.
I cant wait till winter when i can pull them out of snowbanks....maybe then they will think about getting 4wheel.
o yeah and that whole flash-your-hazards thing....that pisses me off, who ever thought of that should be shot.
 
funny story

yea this type o shit happens to me too, observe:

back when i was 17....so 3 years ago..... and living in new hampshire i was racking up my hours outside of drivers ed for driving time. well i was with my mom in my dads 2003 f250sd with a tow and plow package, 5.4l v8, and stock 265 perelli scorpions (shitty tires) well we were at a stop light gettin ready to head down to the walmart to get some shit when this older lookin civic, you know the one with the lights going all the way across the back. well we were sittin at the light and he pulls up next to us in the other lane, revvin the piss outa his engine. now the only thing i could gather from his car is that he had a cone filter and a fart can. he looks over at me, still revving the thing and i look at my mom and her words exactly "go ahead, you got this." light turns green boom we're gone. and we could tell that he was trying to race me too. get up to the next light about a 1/2 mile away he pulls up looking straight ahead and the car was quiet lol. people in the other turning lane were giving me thumbs up and waving. i love it:shout:. maines no different. kid i know has a grand prix with dual exhaust, 18's and denzo plugs. its running a little funny so all my friends tell him its a cammed motor and he got excited lol "that makes it faster right" thing is, my truck with just a cone filter on the stock intake pipe sounds like its got more balls than his car with duals. theres my input, hope its not too long
