OK....you guys/girls that didnt go, MISSED OUT!

Despite the rain that popped up, it still was a great time.

So I hop in the car and the guy was really nice and says "How ya doing today?" I say "Great, lets ride!" As we pulled away I said "Can we get crazy?" Then he said "Ummm...not really." I took that as a YES! So I drop the hammer and it hooked up good in first gear. I took it up to the red-line, did a sweet powershift into second, setting the car sideways as the tires screamed away. I get through the road cones, the car handles so great. The guy I was driving with says to me "Do you race?" I said "Yes I do" Then he said "What do you race because you are driving the heck out of this thing?" I started to laugh as I said "A 2000 Ranger!" We started to laugh, because by then it was time to park it, but not before I came out of the final turn into the straight stretch and laid into it screaming the tires through 1st and 2nd gear. Then I had to get out, it was a short ride, but well worth it!!! I Hope everyone gets an opportunity to drive an 05!

Thanks!!

I am sure I made his day. Either that or he had to change his shorts after riding with me....hahaha. He was holding on to the door handle pretty tight. I mustve done something to scare him, I dont know. It was great though....I am still pumped about that ride. I CANT WAIT TO GET MINE!!!

I had fun taking pics and flogging an 05 at KY Speedway, but have not seen a new owner of an 05 post a time slip yet.

Hasn't anyone taken their 05 to the track yet?
