Default my car vs. rice

I was on my way home from my girlfriends house when I see this riced out car with a huge wing, blue neon lights and an ugly paint job with 3 or 4 hispanic looking guys inside.He pulled up to the light and started checking out my car. I gave it a little gas when the light turned green to show them what the LS1 can do and they continued to follow. As I started to slow down I see him go faster, so when he reaches my car, I give it WOT and toast him. I slowed down only to see him trying to do the famous ricer fly-by. I wasn't about to let him pass me, so I give it WOT again and once again, smoke him. I went to about 95 - 100mph and just slowed down, and saw his *** clown friend hanging out the window waving his hand like they just won a race I just don't understand.....

Hey becareful, some of those guys are crazy, last week here in Colorado, some trash Honda that lost a race I guess [Then again on the news everything is a race] shot the three people driving the other kid.

Two years ago, a Viper smoked a modded Honda, the Viper owner laughed and the kid in his civic through a brick and nailed his hood. I don't understand either, but then again I don't get why people race some cars, and think 30 foot spoilers help the aerodynamics on a car that barely needs downforce because it can't go high speeds.

Although you have to admit, thats the best upgrade a Honda could get, weapons.

Maybe he was just trying to get rid of some extra weight so he could have a better shot at the viper?



Dumbasses ... (the viper guy too, for racing a honda in the first place)

Ricers seem to have the worst attitude around by far. Like someone said in another post, muscle car owners are for the most part really cool whether they win or lose. Ricers get really pissed (And in some cases violent, I suppose) when they lose. They just can't accept the fact that their cars are not built for that kind of performance. I was just cruising along the other night and a ricer was driving beside me (I don't even know what the hell kinda car it was under all the body work- Cavalier maybe?) and he was kinda' gunning it, I suppose to impress the girl riding with him...well, needless to say...don't mess with an LS1, lol. Bet she was real impressed.

It's worse if you live near a college. Those guys should know better. But when you mix too much alcohol and no authority, you get problems. That's why the cops just LOVE to sit on 140 above the college after 1:30 AM.

I cant remeber exactly where, some guy with a red Viper down here I met in Aurora told me about it. A guy in a Viper got a brick at his car, guess did some bad damage.

But on a real note..every time a spoiler is put on rice a clown dies.

Let me preface this by saying I DO NOT CONDONE THIS ACTION!!!

A friend of mine, reserve officer, has an older Vette. He likes speed, and likes killing ricers. He got one brick and got even. The brick throwing driver of the car immediately cut and ran. I was in the passenger seat, looking at the crack in his fiberglass hood. He took off like his head was on fire and his *** was catching after this guy. He caught up on a rather windy country road (late at night) and got his revenge. He pulled his .38 off duty special out from under the seat, and fired off five rounds of blanks at this kid. The kid in the CRX dumps off the road into the corn field, hits a ditch too fast, and rolls his car.

While I don't agree with it, it was beautiful. He sure could have gone to jail for a while though.

Your friend should think about the outcome before he does something stupid. He should have used live rounds!
