I for one never thought of it as a racial comment, it's just you don't read to many kill stories that mention the ethnicity of the driver... so I was curious if it had any significant purpose in the story. Once again nice kill and **** ricers!!

But more on topic, good kill. Around here most of the hispanic ricers are Puerto Rican or Dominican, only mexicans I race usually have sleeper 57 chevys or suped up pick-ups. In no intention did I mean to assume you were a racist, some topics just bug me a bit, I mean no offense. My bad if it came off like that. Plus on here despite our cultures are blood type is still GM

No man, that's fine. I understand what you mean and your damn right about our blood types being GM! That's what we all love, GM power.

The guy had a mexican flag plate on his car which is the only reason why I mentioned that. It really doesn't matter though. Thanks, and your damn right about them ricers!

I am hisp, calling the guy mex didn't bother me a bit, no big deal. It's true here too, not too many v8 guys with tans it's kinda gay getting upset over it. I mean look here...

we laugh, it's not being racist posting those though we can all agree that some group could be ID'd from them.

FYI, i think there should be one with a crooked upside down visor

whatever i guess.


Nice kill btw.

Do i look like Mexican??




Not all Mexicans are brown, acually a lot 30-40% of Mexicans (myself included) are descendants from spain or other european countries.

Good kill on the Mexican ricers, its a disease down here also

Nice kill. Yea, stock dsm's only run high 14's low 15's, especially with a vert (I don't imagine that was really much of a race at all lol) but it's really easy to wake them up, they're most comparable to a foxbody mustang... It might run 15's, it might run 12's, you usually can't tell by looking.

I'm sorry it's making you sick but if you can't read something without taking it out of context then why are you even posting in this thread? I said that because the dude WAS a mexican, not that it makes a damn bit of difference. The ricer crowd around here is mostly hispanic, it may not be in your area.
