It is disturbing that some of you memorized all those quotes. That means you must have idolized the movie at one time in your life. Now I'm thinking that you guys were probably the punk ricers that I described in my first rant, and just grew out of it a little

In drifting there is no race. Don't compare racing to dancing.

Racing is where the first guy to the finish line wins.
Dancing is where you show off to a group of judges and hope for the best.

Jesse, since you were the first to reach in and grab some chicken, why don't you say grace?
Thank you for directport nitrous injection, four core intercoolers, ball bearing turbos, and titanium valve springs.

Ill admit that I was a ricer for a couple months after that movie came out. When the first one came out I was about 13 and I thought those cars were the coolest things ever. I told my dad I wanted to build a silver eclipse with a turbo. My dad then proceeded to take me to various car shows with muscle cars etc... and basically saved my life haha.

PSST...look at the Yellow label....the gas itself is non-flammable. HOWEVER, a non-flammable gas that is an Oxidizing agent can/will support the combustion process.

The dangerous materials definition of an oxidizing agent is a substance that is not necessarily combustible, but may, generally by yielding oxygen, cause or contribute to the combustion of other material (Australian Dangerous Goods Code, 6th Edition).
