You could borrow my mystery Road race tires if you want. They must be magical as they just appeared in my yard.

No auto-x for me, too much family stuff going on that day.

The black galant with the bigger wing was the one. I swear the guy driving it wasnt 40 though. Maybe he wasnt set at max boost and (obviously) wasnt spraying. We'll see if it's at MM tomorrow. If it is, there may not be a domestic car present that can beat it. What do you think Jamie, 130+ trap?

I dunno about his trap, I started to catch him in 3rd before he shut down. He said he shelled the the tranny, I was coming up on him before he lifted though, something he didnt stick around long enough for me to say to him. I dont really know what my car is good for trap wise, Id like to say 125+ with my dyno info, but in reality its probably 115.

There's some of his gay ****. Seriously: this guy probably has pictures up on his computer that he jerksoff to that his wife took of him talkin' **** to a bunch of teenagers.
Well man I dont know the guy nearly as well as you...obviously. I have however raced both of his cars, and really I dont think you can call either one rice, you might not like the way they look, but they are mostly about function which defies the rice defintion. Everytime I raced him he was really cool about, he was hustling quite a bit the second time, but thats just part of street racing. He never threw any excuses other than he broke his car at me, and he still managed to cross the finish line before although I left off as soon as I saw him lift (technicalities here).

The fact remains though that he built both of his cars and is out racing them and having fun with them. Just becouse you or I dont particularly like his choice in cars doesnt diminish from the fact that hes doing the same thing we are. Maybe he was a dick to you and I understand why you dont like him if that was the case, but he was cool to us for he most part so Im not going to talk ****. And he beat me so its difficult for me to call his car rice since has some interesting ramifications for my car. Which in all technicality looks worse than his.

Cheers,

Jamie

NoRotor, no that wasn't me.

Jamie, my opinions of him have very little to do with his cartoonmobiles: the guy was (and I can't imagine being any different now) a complete dumbass. He we all are just drivin back to the party, and I hear this constant "faaaRRRRT *sneeze*.... faaaAAARRRT *sneeze* about 20 times behind us, and it's old man ricer in his POS doing the typical ricer tailgaiting behind my g/f driving Doug's car, overenforcing the obvious fact that he has a damn turbo (again, who gives a ****). Then he pulls a NASCAR slingshot move, in 25 MPH traffic on Locust (by Whitey's torwars Taco Bell) to get next to Doug (well, Amy) and does yet again the floor, sneeze, floor, sneeze, and Christ almighty it's annoying after hearing once, let alone half your drive back to where ever. Then he does his typical **** talking to Doug, then tells me and Mike in his truck that his car runs "11.40's on the street" (WTF is this guy smokin'? Do stoplights have time and trap speed signs on them or something?) Anyways, with Amy driving she still held him right next to her so we all laughed at this guy's BS anyways.

But then Mike informs Old Man Ricer about his truck, when it's finish, what it'll be running and to have a throwdown sometime, and the guy replies back about Mike's truck's supposed "should be" track times "Not on the street it won't." ... That left us speechless. Was this idiot trying to be stupid to purposely irritate the Hell out of us? Then he goes and tells Doug (and us when he caught us) that "Your friend back there needs to get some ***** and come back with a real car when he wants to talk ****" and that just had us laughing our asses off: "Yeah, your wife must be proud to be sitting next to her big man as he shows off like an idiot in traffic, talking **** to some teenagers." Yes, since we were the ones with the mosquito exhaust who wouldn't go the **** away when we're just trying to be on our way. That's exactly what **** in cars like that remind me of: mosquitos. They sound like a mosquito, are ugly like a mosquito, and won't leave you the **** alone when you're just trying to go about your business... like a mosquito.

Again, I don't care what he drives or how fast it is (you can't outrun ugly no matter how fast), this guy is a ricer and the definitive tool on our roads. He makes NOPIVision seem like intelligent TV.

Ricers, no matter how fast their cars may be, are still ricers. It's all about the attitude, and this guy is a ricer.
