Takin the new Ranger to the track tonight just to play around. My boss has a 2000 daktoa 3.9 with a exhaust and intake we are going to run them should be fun.

What you guys think my truck will run am never raced any of my rangers so I have no idea. Raced my mustang and stuff alot ranger allways been my DD.

It's a 05 stx with a 4.0 5 speed auto ext cab flowmaster exhaust. My 18by 9's bulliets will be on should hook up nicely. Oh and it's just a 1/8 mile track am hoping for high 9's what you guys think.

 

holy crap someone from Indiana...

 

yeah hey man whats up. Im been out of working on rangers lately but just got this 05 stx so am been hanging around more. IN boys lol

 

not too many from indiana on here that are active. just glad to see another member from IN.

hope you get that 9 but i would count on it.

 

Yeah maybe wishful thinking but oh well we will see. Id I beat the dodge I'll be happy.

 

Just show em who builds a better truck!

 

The 3.9's are actually pretty quick for what they are, my dad had the 3.9 in his '90 and it was quick but I think the 00's are alot heavier now. I think you can take em!

 

Well we will see and I'll have so numbers for you guys on what stock ext cab 4.0 will run.

 

NITROUS!!!!!

I recommend a TNT kit and add some BFG Drag Radials.

 

yes sticky tires always help and acully a thicker side wall tire is better. also MAN lower that thing haha

 

I know I cant believe ford left them at stock height (of edges I believe!?! at least go with xlt height)....dorks

 

No I think it's xlt height but it does need lowered but those wheels are off my stnag so the tires are to low of a profile Which make it look worst.

 

ya i do beleave it has xlt 2wd suspension...its just the bloody fact they could have put a 2/3 drop on it to set it apart from them besides the HUGE droped front bumper. i mean dont get me wrong its a nice style looking bumper if it didnt dip down so far...

 

I sort of wish i got a stx but im happy with my edge, if you can drive dude you should do well. chrysler products make me nauseous so whoop up on that ****

 

pull your side mirrors in, lose the spare, dont fill up before you get there, empty out anything you dont need from the truck, if you want you can take off the tailgate.... all to lose some weight

 

leave the tail gate on they proved with they way the trucks are designed its better to have it on. also a buddy of mine tryed it and get a couple tens better with it up then off or down

 

Well I only got one run in cause we got there late. Didn't lauch hard at all didn't even spin.

60ft 2.36
330ft6.87
et@ 594ft 9.8072
1/8 et 10.46
1/8 mph 68.49

My boss ran like a 13.6 and had a 3.6 60 ft so no contest be he couldn't drive his truck so will have to wait. Truck felt good thought nothing like driving my stang but fun either way. Got some people that really likes it thought so it's all cool.

 

i went 9.8 with traction issues in my 4.0


Good run man, truck looks good.

 

Dude my 73 beetle runs 12s in an 1/8 tell bossman to take that dodge home and bury it. Congrats on embarrasing your boss, always a good feeling.

 

oh god not the tail gate thingy again.

 

1/8th mile........1/8th mile, I laugh at your 1/8th mile track j/k

I ran the real drag strip distance of 1/4 mile in 15.6 @ 84 mph, that was with my heavy XLT 4x4

 

Yeah it sucks but the closest 1/4 is like 2 hours away.

 

Indiana here too. Where is Clarksville?

 

We are pretty much very southern IN across the river from louisville, ky.
