I already exposed his 4WD a long time ago when someone who knows the truck posted it up here on Tech. He was pissed and immediately got the guy to edit his post.
The Furd guys quickly jump on his bandwagon and hate when the rest of us with a clue expose the truth and call us the fanboys, lol!
Carry on...

lol why is he a tool? Because he does burn outs on his OWN tires? Because he does what he has to do to win races? Or is it because he drives a Ford? People can make all the excuses they want. If he wins, he wins. And it is quite common to spin or haze all 4 tires when on street tires and coming out under heavy power. Especially spray. Obviously not as bad as a RWD vehicle. But a 4wd vehicle will launch harder on drag radials then street tires.

"Yeah man, for sure, lets do it."
Both do their burnouts.
Truck drivers sticks it in 4WD before race begins and launches hard as ****.... Yup that is a tool in my book. Assuming that's how the race went down because the guy is known for doing that already.... So yes, that is a tool. It has nothing to do what brand of vehicle he drives. He could be driving a ******* Toyota FJ Cruiser for all I give a ****. Leading someone into a race like that and then switchin over to 4WD is what **** do. That's not "doing what you have to do to get the win," that's hustling someone. Which again, is what tools do.

No thats what competitive street racing is like. There is one rule in street racing. Run what you brung and hope you brung enough. If youre the sap that gets baited and gets his money taken... then thats on you. Not the guy who hustled you.
Whose the tool? The guy going home with more or less money before he went street racing?

If your POS truck is so slow that you have to hustle someone just to win a few dollars at the end of the night, you're a tool.
That truck would have got freight trained had the SS been on a real tire. Even with the truck still launching in 4WD. Hustlers = Tools.

That fact that you think my comment has anything to do with brand loyalty... shows how brand loyal you are. I could give two ***** about who got hustled by what. The point is hustling happens 9 times out of 10 in street racing. Sorry you cant handle that.. Like I said... run what you brung and hope you brung enough. I wouldnt be drag racing ANYONE in a rwd car with any amount of HP. The guy in the camaro is the tool... not the truck.

Not taking sides but Evan does have a point. Who lists all their mods to someone that you are going to race especially for money?
Normally, you disclose things about your car that you cannot hide like maybe exhaust or tires. Most of the time though, you would not even open your hood.
That is the fun of street racing though. You continue to mod your car regardless of what others are doing. Then you take your chances when you call someone out. The key is to know your stuff about other cars and not blindly picking someone to run. At least have somewhat of an idea what you are getting involved with. If you get hustled because of your lack of knowledge then, as Evan stated, "that's on you".
On a side note, I have seen many ask to open the trunk to look for a Nitrous bottle. I have always thought that is a fair request. IMO
