funny stuff from a friend

Your Honda does not impress me.
Your Acura is nothing more than another speedbump in my eyes.
My Jeep has more torque than you could ever squeeze out of your little Eclipse.
My name is Justin Chesnutt, and I hate rice burners.


Let's get a few things straight... The bigger your coffee can exhaust, the more your crapbox sounds like a turbocharged lawnmower. Your car cannot fly, it does not need a wing. Tacky oriental symbols on your windows are not cool, this is America and you should advertise your crap in English. Hoods and doors that don't match the body color just add to the "just came from the junkyard" effect. Cobra eyes... how in the Heck? Who the heck puts Christmas lights on their hood anyway! I wish I had a plastic bodykit that hung down to the ground and forced me to take small bumps at an angel so my crap don't break. Engines that have less displacement than what they sell soda in are not gonna cut it here, we grew up with big block monsters. Blowoff valves do not make you cool, I can make the same noise with an air compressor and trigger valve house. There's nothing special about a turbocharger, every diesel engine ever made has one. Take your rice bowl crap back to Asia and buy a real car... an AMERICAN car.

lol, actually if they autocross the rear wing is practical, it provides the rear downforce which equals better handling. never seen a ricer autocross tho[addsig]

probably will get me black listed, but we're here to contribute, right?

where was the funny stuff? regret not going along with the crowd on this one, guys, but trashing cats is one thing - trashing other's rides is something else.

trust me, i'm real glad i grew up in the muscle car era with the big blocks 'cause i would not want to think that i may have 'jacked-up' a honda if i was part of this generation.

it's the new rage. i don't understand it either and belle and me call them, 'fart cars' because of the way they sound. but hate them?

by the way, does owning a jeep made in canada qualify as an american car?

where'd this aggression come from anyway?

Hmm...
A bit harsh, but i see where you're coming from.

My other car is a '02 toyota celica, and its a fun little import. Some would say its a bit on the ricey side, but i like to think of it as being subtley pimped out enough to still keep its dignity. I believe a little diversity is a GOOD thing with cars.

Most of the imports that get riced out have tiny engines that rev really really really high, so having a fart can exaust actually does make a noticable difference, but 90% of ricers just like it cause they wanna impress their ricer friends with the sound.

As far as the wings? C'mon... Everybody knows that wings are for maxi-pads and cars that actually HAVE RWD.. :-D

I wouldnt go so far as to HATE ricers... I find them quite amusing.
You gotta remember that most of these kids have seen F&TF one to many times and have NO IDEA that performance takes more than the addition of a "Type R" badge...

Anyways... I just realized after typing all of this that this thread SHOULD be in the general forum so i'll shut up now.

autocross is usually done with good handling cars. the ones ive been to havebeen in large parking lots and its basically a course set up with cones and weekend warriors dukin it out for the best time through the course. there are different classes for the different cars. there are time penalties for cones knocked down. its basically time trials but the official name is autocross. so the better the car handles the faster you complete the course. that is where the wing comment comes in. with better rear downforce you get better handling, even from a FWD.

there are 3 different classes of import drivers (or ricers)
1.the factory ones that people drive because they're cheap reliable and get great gas milage
2. the posers, these are your most common "ricers" they have stickers and altezzas and clear corners, but not many performance upgrades, maybe a can and some intake
3. true street, these are the real deal, they have the headers, exhaust, intake, you name it, all their work is done professionally, they have full body kits that actually look good, not chipped hanging off etc. these are the ones that win shows and are usually driven by older people 20's -30's, most high schoolers dont have the $$ to put together a REAL car.

i love my jeep, but i also love to take my dads little 5 speed civic out and run up in the high RPMs and scoot around town. we laugh at the ricers but the thing we must remember tho is that to them, some of us may look like ricers. like myself for example, i have intake and exhaust as my only performance upgrades, those dont do much. i dont have a lift or anything so basically i have a stock jeep tahts a little faster. the honda equivalent would be a civic with a can and intake. we look at them and laugh and say "haha look at that can thats gay, that thing isnt much faster than stock" they look at us and say "offroad jeep? i think not, those are factory tires, that intake and exhaust wont give him enough power to get many more places" all im saying is you guys call people who havent gone all out ricers, and i know that many of us havent gone all out either, neither of us (us and ricers) have enough $$ to complete all our automotive dreams.

to finish this novel i leave you with this thought, i find myself occasionally laughing at some kid who goes zipping by with an ehxaust system and some altezzas, especially when i see its an automatic. but i know that my car doesnt have a single offroad mod on it and i still offroad it, his car may not be any faster than any other civic, but he still races it. we're all car modders, we build ours to go anywhere, they build theirs race. to each his own, lets just respect them for the time, love , and effort they've put into their rides, even if its not what we think is cool. and im out PEACE[addsig]
