Not the first time up at the track but the first with the ranger. did well for what it is LMAO. All my runs were extremely consistant all 16.2 with 16.5 being the slowest 2wd launch spun hard. But over all i had a great night. have some pics and a vid tires screamed the entire track guy on the loud speaker "listen to that fellas tires roar" got a kick outta it lol. but on to the knock off/ loose list ill scan race slips tomorrow
Wins for me 06 Monte Carlo SS 99 3.0 Ranger XLT Civic turbo (broke axle launching) Chrysler Town and Country Losses 07 STI 7.3 PSD 6.0 PSD (blacked out the track) Jeep SRT8 Audi S8 V10 Small lambo idk what there called ran 11.88 On the way there http://i650.photobucket.com/albums/u...s/IMG_6199.jpg Avoiding the water box Attachment 79027 Best run of the night (tires so loud) Attachment 79028 |
Something must have been wrong with the Monte Carlo SS. I don't know anything about them, but i'd assume they are faster then a Ranger.

I like how the "Civic turbo (broke axle launching) " counts as a win. lol
Plus nice on the amount of times you got to run. I love how the slip shows what car's are what. Or at least maker. It makes it less likely to bullshit someone into thinking you are faster than you really are. |
Good to see you still got your truck. I cant believe you even took it to the track and take a chance on breaking it with all the problems you have seemed to have with it lol.
Thought you were getting rid of it? |

It makes it less likely to bullshit someone into thinking you are faster than you really are. Times where very consistent. The slip says Ford and Amelia or what ever and those are the lane sponsors. Look at my windshield and the number on the ticket |

Looks like a blast. I didnt know what to think when you sent me that video lol.
|
what track did you go to? i cant imagine you drove all the way up to new england dragway. but i dont know how far you are from it
|
If it was an 06 monte ss it had the 5.3L v8 in it same as the pontiac grand prix GXP. Which is a mid-high 13 sec car stock. I could see you winning if it had the anemic 3.5 in it, but that isn't available in the SS. So this is BS, or your buddy can't drive an automatic car for the life of him..

Wikipedia says 04-05 mc ss got a 3.5 supercharged, then 06-07 got the 5.3

Now if it was an 00-04 SS it had an n/a 3.8 that only made 200 hp. A 4.0 SOHC ranger is definitely as quick, if not a bit quicker then those. |

What kind of mirror is this? Is it on a Ranger?
edit: or 09+ 150 i think. |
unless I'm reading the slip wrong, I'd say you need to work on your reaction time, LOL.
