Should we also stare at the logo on the steering wheel while doing so, then the speedo, to the exclusion of, oh, I don know, the outside world?

The most amazing part of that video is that the ford didn't break at WOT

Stupid video. But yea it's hard merge with 70+mph traffic when the dick head infront of you is doing 45mph.

It's a Ford, you should be amazed it made it that fast under its own power. They usually require assistance from a wrecker.

Yup. Front slid pins were seized..New rotors pads and calipers and bracket

The ebrake rusted too so I ripped it off

Which is why traffic should merge left at entrances.

In Texas we can use the shoulder as an acceleration lane. Nobody seems clued in on this though.

Yes.

Here in KC, there are some on-ramps downtown that are probably only a little over a hundred feet long. Every day when I go through there, guaranteed there will be some dumbfuck at a complete stop at the bottom of one of the ramps because they simply do not understand what it takes to merge with traffic.

Traffic should not yield to entering traffic. I see this mistake all the time. Make them work for a spot and stop impeding the roadway making room for morons who don't know how to merge.

Don't forget to pay attention to pay attention to the speedo while you are looking for a merge spot.

If you don't you may merge in front of a unmarked police car while you are going 20+ (officially 19) over the speed limit.

Ask me how I know

How to merge on to a highway:

1.  Quit fucking around with your phone.

2.  Stomp on the big pedal on the right.

3.  Adjust your speed to avoid hitting slow moving morons, and fast moving maniacs.



ETA: Did you do a hit of helium before the video started?

I need to look into something like that. I have a V-10 four months off
Extended warranty. I just did the exhaust manifold studs to stainless, plugs, recall
Ticketed Y-pipe and cats, Banks Exhaust
Runs out better than before but could use a tune and shift programming to get thee most ass out
Of it.

Yeah, no.

I'll take my time to find a nice gap in traffic where I can get a steady slow acceleration for fuel economy and engine vitality.

You're gonna want to take it slow. It shouldn't take you less than 20 seconds to go from 0 to 65.
