I see, my messages were obviously NOT intended for those who actually have fast rangers. But a whole freakin BUNCH of those idiots on the RPS board think they are the fastest thing on four wheels. I understand there are fast Rangers..... and like I said..... most of those idiots don't drive one! You guys do, and that is cool with me, I mean I wish I had a 4.0 in my truck. Hell.... I still wish I had my old 93. That 2.3 could probably out accelerate those 3.0's.
I know this cause I raced my friend's 3.0 92 Toyota Tacoma with my 2.3, and we were head to head until I shifted into third.....and that is when his torque was noticeable. It was pretty awesome, we were on a two lane residential road that had cars parked going BOTH ways, and we were probably about a foot away from each other, and about 6 inches from the cars on each side. I could hear him shifting (the actual clicking) and we were literally head to head, with no one pulling, until we both shifted into third. Then his truck started pulling. The only modification I had done to the 2.3 was a custom 7lb aluminum flywheel, shortened shifter, flowmaster exhuast, and a 9 bolt Ford posi with 4:10 gears out of a 5.0 mustang. At the same time, this same friend with the 3.0 Toyota raced a new 3.0 Ranger and beat it (he said it kept up with him pretty well).
haha, and I have no reason to BS, especially since I don't even have that truck anymore. Anyways, sorry if you guys got offended.
