    Has the Taco had the frame replaced? A hard launch might be enough to break a rusted frame, so a Ranger win in that instance.

    Not sure about the ranger, but my Taco has some get up and go. In fact, it only has two speeds: Geriatric and Get up and go. The Ranger might have that useless middle ground before it hits "get up and go." Could put it behind the Taco!

    Here's a solid challenge for two dumb brothers.

    Do a push race for 1/4 mile. And for added points, wear flip flops. :D

    I worked with a guy who had a 04-05 Ranger v6 and we would race to/from work almost daily. I usually was able to beat him, but really comes down to the hit. I think he had an auto and I have a manual so that could be part of the difference.

    Chase is a race tests ea drivers reaction to the start ...
    If your reflexes are good and you're positive your opponent jumped and you didn't move you get the win

    Ehhh to me it’s a bs way for a slow car to win when it’s clearly out of its class. I’m just saying that’s not heads up racing, it’s guessing do I got on the light or do I go on this mf trying to get a head start. If you let the guy go and don’t chase, then there isn’t even a race to watch -how is that fun? The one thing it does seem to do is give slow car a better chance against a fast car.
