  • In case you’ve never watched a Hoonigan video that involves going fast off-pavement, we’re just gonna let you know that Darren Parsons is the dirt daddy. But even the very best can reach their limits sometimes, and Darren’s old Ford Raptor setup was almost completely lost to a fire/roll type situation. But now, like a mid 90s phoenix from the ashes, it’s back as a Ford Ranger. AKA Darren’s high school danger machine.

      This makes me want to rip the 370 out of my F-body, sell the chassis,, sell the nitrous setup, and throw it in an old S10 or Blazer with a Procharger and dump the rest of the money into a backhalf, cage, and suspension🤤🤤🤤🤤
