This has always been one of my favorites.
Kinda Like the Wheelie Bar on the 800HP FWD Dodge Shelby Charger.

the mighty 300 in my work truck isn't very fast
Yea, but it's a work truck, not a Ford Lightning, lol.If you put the right gears in it it would be.
I got my revenge in high school. I bought my Ranger brand new my senior year (yea, I know, now everyone realizes just how young I am, lol). I was practically sick the first day I drove it to school... despite being new it was pretty much the only thing worth less than $30k in the lot. Lots of Lexus, BMW, etc. But then The Fast and the Furious came out and many of those idiots insisted that they trade the car mommy and daddy bought for them to get a black civic and trick it out....
Problem was, I rapidly discovered that my stock Ranger would beat them off the line and into 4th gear every time.Their poor egos...
Then after HS, I put a set of subs in my Ranger... wired them into the stock stereo and all with a 200 watt single channel amp. Oddly enough I was louder and clearer than most others, and I heard a lot of kids bragging that they spent a couple grand on their stereo... I think the local car audio shop that opened up was just interested in parting idiots and their money.
I had a lot of fun playing with ricers in my Ranger up until one night I made a mistake. Car pulled up next to me, from the headlight configuration an all I had guessed that it was some ricer or other and he's revving at the light. Whatever. Long straight stretch of 4 lane with a 50 mph speed limit and I had the timing of the light down cold. I was moving as the light turned green.... and all I saw of the car was taillights disappearing over the horizon. As it flashed in front of me I saw my mistake... 3000gt TwinTurbo. Yep, forgot there was one of those running around driven by someone who knew how to do it, lol.
Now I don't bother with trying to race off at lights. Besides, the mighty 300 in my work truck isn't very fast, lol. But I might be tempted to get on it once in awhile if I get the one motor I'm looking for for my dump truck... rebuilt 460 with zero miles... it was bored over and has performance heads.... it'd go in a 94 F-350....
lol, depends on how fast you are on the trigger.Haaaaaa. Those darn twinturbos!!!! I wonder if that can out run
my H&K MP5? lol

Screw the .50 BMG....Give me a MK19 Automatic Grenade Launcher....Nothing like hearing the "DUNK! DUNK! DUNK!" sound as some ricer's car explodes! LOL!
actually you would be surprised at how the wing affects the car , my buddy has one on his Neon ( his car is a tuner style car , but it is tastefully done , and yes the engine is heavily modded ) , when he first put the wing on he put the vanes in upside down ( 2 teir spoiler ) and the car would get squirrely around 70 MPH , he did it the right and the car stays planted. I believe the spoilers serve some purpose , but i am unsure of what. Kinda Like the Wheelie Bar on the 800HP FWD Dodge Shelby Charger.
