Re: Riced Out!!!!!

If you make it look good then at least have the power to back it. Please it just seems better.

Re: Riced Out!!!!!

haha... Of course I'm kidding... I once saw this fake magainze cover for rice rockets that went along the lines:

"New Body kits reviews: Dress for the 9's even though you can't break the 17's"

"New decal sets dyno tested"

In the days of American Muscle Cars we called that a "Sleeper" and they got the most respect.

The guys who decorate their cars to 'look' like racers are usually big talkers with not much else going on.

The street racers that you DONT want to mess with were the quiet ones whose cars look totally stock. If a guy is willing to bet money on a race armed only with what LOOKS like a stocker then you better not take that bet.

Bling-bling cars are a sign of a tiny pecker.

Having owned a Civic Si, I feel the need to tell people that some of us actually need the spoilers and body kits (Civics start to float above 160.) I could retire if I had a dime for every punk who has revved up to my stang right before they turn...pussies.

Its not coffee cans, stacked wings, body kits, and stickers that makes me hate it. Its the person's attitude that I hate. I think its the person that makes it rice. If some guy in a tricked out Civic stops in the lane beside you and starts revving his engine up real loud at you and laughing at you, then that is what causes you to hate them.

Someone mentioned chrome as rice........but I want chrome door handles, lol

You have a point there, I wished I could have lived back in the '70s when all that was going on.

One more thing, I always wanted an El Camino

Re: Riced Out!!!!!

My thoughts on "ricers":
I have met some guys, that take economy cars, and build them up, and i have respect for that. I have met some guys that throw a K&N filter in there car and try and race a 5.0 mustang. The latter should be hurt badly. There are far too many crap boxes on the road, domestic and import that are slow, crappy, and a waiste of space and precious oxygen that my engine needs to be breathing. The stupidity is not confined to ricers alone.

Re: Riced Out!!!!!

ok... i really really need to clear something up here people.... you all have a very scewwed deffinition of a ricer. A ricer is called a ricer for a reason. You know how in Japan they eat an excessive amount of rice?? *hint*HINT* A ricer is defined bye where it is made... not bye who drives it or what is done to the car... all Japenese cars are ricers...in and out... just a ricer. But the has been a point proved... a lot of those people that drive ricers are aragont (i cant spell, gimme a break)...
