Farm Truck
.
The mere fact that you are hanging out here at Hooniverse dictates that you should already have knowledge of Farm Truck. If you stumbled in here completely by accident and decided to stay, you can find some additional info on Farm Truck here. That said, watching Farm Truck never gets old and if seeing it spank a Corvette on an empty stretch of road doesn’t make your day, I don’t know what will.
As to where the pizza delivery sign went, I can only speculate that it was violently torn off the mothership at some point on its way to warp speed.

Eh, as I said on the J, it's not really much of a sleeper.
I'd call it sleepy, until you hear it (motor or train horns)
Wonder if the hatch on the cap coming open is an active aero device?
(watching it hook gives the chills)
To an untrained ear, the headers/exhaust would just sound like an old farm truck MISSING it's exhaust.
FWIW it would "sleep" right past me.
My first thought would be an old truck with some nice headers and exhaust owned by a teenager who lives on a farm or at least in a rural area. There were plenty of them at my high-school. I would not guess that it is as fast as it is.
How so? It's quiet at idle, has mix-matched steel wheels, the huge tires are covered in mud flaps (Trust me you'd never notice them from the front or straight side while in an actual car), and it looks like hell. At night and for the most part if you saw it in traffic you'd be scared to death by just what happened.
Oh yeah, that's got to be Phillip after a slow day at work…
Here is the other way he likes to blow off steam…

Gotta be honest, the rear wheels… not so much. A stock-looking dually setup would've been, though.
This vs. the seemingly stock looking ford truck with the viper engine.
Of course if this would happen the world would implode with the forces of torque and rubber.
That's what they are trying to replicate at the Large Hadron Collider.
Hot Damn Yall! Sleepy, sure, not sleeper. Mind if I relate a short story?
Thanks!
My mom (yeah, muthalovin loves his mutha, as engineered pointed out earlier) has a 1993 Ford F-150 Lightning. It has Hooker Headers and Flowmaster exhaust system. The thing is muscle car loud. I was going to get groceries in it on my way to the store. I caught a light with some knuckleheads in an old Accord with a fart-can exhaust and a large wing. I glanced, and the passenger glanced back. So I nodded my head, and he did the same! The light went green and go. Now, I do not condone racing on public streets, but sometimes, you have to teach the kids who is boss, amiright? So, the Lightning pulls straight away, making it horrendous noise of the motor and exhaust and awesome (in fact, frightening me a little bit), thoroughly embarrassing this Accord. We catch the next light, and I look over with a wide smirk on my face, heart beating about a million times per minute. The passanger looks over, clearly impressed by the noise and the go. He asks, "how fast is that thing?" I reply, maintaining my cool, "dude, its Lightning fast."
I love this. Great stuff. I was going to write something about how I really like the way the Farm Truck lifts the driver's side front wheel whenever the mental patient driving it romps on it, but your story impresses me even more. I have a Ford truck, too, but the straight six in mine kinda blatts, not roars.
People will ask, "Why?"
Hoons will ask, "Why not?"
That one three-letter word separates us from them.
That should go on the Hooniverse Coat of Arms!
Hoons know the answer also
I gotta admit, that's just about as good of a motto as we're likely to come up with.
This is just fantastic!!! Thanks for making this available!
