The other day when I was driving Orangejuice, I was sitting at a stop light and who should come rolling-up next to me? A little ricer with one of those fart-can exhaust on it. You know, the fancy wheels, lowered body, windows down with music blasting and performance stickers on it. I thought, I can can have some fun with this guy. The light was still red and he kept rolling forward getting ready to dump-it and jam in front of me. When the light turned green he took-off with 1 car lead in front of me. I simply stepped on the gas and blew right past him. I was able to hook-up and the Magnaflows were yelling quite loud. All you could here is him shifting through all the gears as fast as he could and engine/exhaust wound tighter than a rubber band...lol. And the best part...I didn't even open the four barrels to do this. Good to know the old sleeper can still haul A$$.
If you have a good story, let's hear it.
Thanks

Guys I love my 76 ford 390 4speed 2x4 I have a 72 pinto working on a 302 swap! but all that said I am looking for a ricer
Just for the fact you can do all kinds of cool fast mods and still get 30mpg. I won't have a fart can though!
The faster you go in are old Fords the more gas it takes!
I bleed FORD blue. so don't take me wrong.

I was waiting behind this guy in a riced out 80-90s civic (or prelude or something) trying to turn right onto a busy highway intersection. Big fart can, revving his engine, making all kinds of noise. He speeds off in front of me darting into traffic. Right when he left, there was a gap in traffic so I peeled out making all kinds of noise with screeching tires and blaring magnaflows, pull into the far left lane and fly by him. I could hear his fart can behind me trying to catch up but it was no use. I just have a nicely built 351w... nothing extreme. But it's nice feeling to take those guys down a notch

me and my dad were in his '82 Peterbilt when somebody with a bad a** eclipse passed us doing about 75 in a 65 in a no passing zone. he told me "watch this". he threw it into the OD gear.... I don't think that eclipse thought that "old truck" could go 93 mph especially right up on his rear end. he floored it so he wouldn't get ran over. we came into a 45 doing 70! whoops

haha park bench, good one! now tell me why you'd wanna suck the rear end down on a front wheel drive car? To the point of putting a huge wing on it, oh man I love seeing stock cars with huge wings and obnoxious mufflers, and sit there laughing at them. Okay, I think Honda, Toyota, and Mazda and them build great cars and all, but it's the obnoxious kids who make them look and sound so stupid with the ugly body kits and such that ruins it all. I haven't really gotten the chance to show any up since I got my truck yet, and that rebuilt 400 has got some *****, but we'll see...
What I love is comin' up behind one of em at a red light,one who's drivin like an idiot, and just gettin so close to see them get all nervous and worried about their car haha.

Here in phoenix those ricers are everywhere! They never think that an old long bed super cab truck can "git up n go" They get up next to me at intersections in those disappearing right hand lanes thinking they can get by me....haha! Just to **** them off when the light turns green I stomp it and even if they get up next to me I don't budge and they fall back behind me lol. That's when I slow down and box them in behind to **** them off even more lol works every time! it's even better at night cuz they'll ride my bumper when they get mad they couldn't beat an old truck so I flip on my back up light and they back WAY off haha. That's what I do....I have alot more stories from beating them imports at lights

Remember back when 5.0 Mustangs were all the rage after they first came out?
I'm sitting at a traffic light on a two-lane road with my '74 highboy and the 11:1 390 I built. 4.10 gears, 33" tires, 435NP tranny.
Mustang pulls up into the right-turn lane and sits there. I know he's going to pull in front of me as soon as the light changes. Or try to.
Just before the light goes green, I rev the motor up to about 5500RPMs (max HP) and practically dumped the clutch in 2nd when it changed.
The Mustang tried, but failed. The highboy leaped out in front, and kept pulling.
Moron almost clipped a parked car before he realized the big red truck was still right next to him
