Well you have two problems with your list. Some del sols come the B16 motor so I would classify them as a sports car. And if you take mom's accord and swap a H22a into it...that would be modding it. Now how would that make one a ricer?

Repost!!!!

Honda guys are cool. you all just don't know the right crowd. I go to a weekly Honda meet and I'm the only other make of car there but all the guys are cool as hell and are not ricers in the least. They hate rice just as much as everyone else.

well...that is one long list of stereotypes, some of them arent even true.

I think louie, or whoever wrote that has some issues they should deal w/.

If you took offense to this instead of laughing about it, obviously too much applies to you.

I've got:
The back lighting in the gauges in your A-pillar gauge pod work long before the actual gauges are hooked up.

^^^ that one is all me. I'll hook it up one of these days!

dont get me wrong i thought alot of it was funny but some stuff has nothing to do w/ cars at all.

I'll admit, i am a Riceboy :tongue:
You have aftermarket FRONT wheels for racing but stock rear wheels.
i got a set of 3 rotas for very cheap from a friend i am gonna put Drag radials on 2 of em.

You push your car through the staging lanes. That way, maybe you can break into the 16s by keeping the motor cool between runs.
i do this also, why not try to keep the motor cool.

Your baseball cap is always on backwards when you drive (the first sign of mental retardation, wearing your clothes backwards... BE).
nothing to do w/ being a riceboy...i hardly ever wear a hat myself, and no not backwards.

You spent all night on the Internet trying to find a company that makes a turbocharger system for your Hyundai...
not that i would spend money on a hyundai or anything, but what's ricey about a turbo?

You think the Del Sol is a sports car...
no not a supercar or anything but it is sporty, its the crx's replacement.

A torque converter does NOTHING for your car.
actually you can get a high stall converter for an auto, and get better 60' times.

If you think that 180 horsepower and 185 lb/ft of torque are impressive for a ‘mildly’ modified engine.
i'd be happily impressed if my DE put down those numbers.

If you think colored head lights work better
i have yellow headlights, i am a ricer. i swear i like them better than the stock ones i had, and better than the $50 piaas i had in there.

Ok i dont see how any of that has anything to do w/ being a "riceboy"
sounds like he just doenst like white ppl, w/ a certain image..lmao

i just found that list on another website. It made me laugh so i figured it would make a few others laugh. I din't actually think that everyone was going to go through and analyze each one.

i made my OWN list...on top

oh i also replaced my stock gauge bulbs w/ blue ones. now thats some rice:)

what about the wide broadway mirrors so you can see yourself driving... lol

i guess its safe to say you are a

cracker if you
-have a 5.0 old school mustang..
-drives a car like Joe Dirts..
-look like a rodeo guy driving a import
-drives a car with a 350 in it
-drives a truck with tires so big, you though it was gravedigger

you are a beaner if you
-if you drive a old town car with daytons on it
-or any car with daytons on it.
-drop your car so low, you can hear it scratching the ground
-have air spray decal on your car
-put up name signs on your rear windows
-drives a car that can hope higher than a kangaroo
-a car with beat so loud you can hear it from across the country
-or maybe drives a pinto!

funny how people sterotype others but a about a few years ago you dont really see any whiteboy or mexicans or anyone else besides some asian dudes driving imports with all the goodies....NOW when you see an import on the street you figure it be some asian dude but it turns out to be some white boys or mexicans or others...sporting the ricer style...FUNNY isnt it!

One things for sure, you never caught me hoping down the road, or driving a old town car with daytons...or a old school mustang that sucks up 1 gallon of gas everytime you step on the accelerator or a trucks with bigger tires and a tractor!

OHH and if you take offense in this, maybe this might appy to you too!

whooaaaa...someone cant handle being a ricer...hey..its ok buddy..just let it go...its not a race thing...its just a "name" or "term" that people use...if you hate white and mexican people, than mabey you should take yourself somewhere where their aren't any...and personally, I don't like those mustangs either..but SOME of them are DAMN nice cars and could smoke alot of the cars out there...and also, seince you claim that others didn't drive imports before...do you just want all other races to drive domestic cars besides asian or something?..get a life dued...this thread wasn't meant to "diss" anyone, or say ANYTHING about race..its just a goofy liddo thread, and I bet that YOU would even agree to half the things on the list...late yo

I am guilty of all the stereotypes. I have had or built:
1) 1958 Lincoln Continental : suicide doors, jet black paint, chrome & gold everywhere, gold Daytons, $4000 in stereo equipment.

2) 1970 Plymouth Baracuda : 440 w/shaker top, sky blue glitter paint, 1/4 in 10.4, Kragar racing rims, Single digit MPG.

3) 1998 SE-R : Genuine R32 aftermarket front bumper cover trimmed & reradiused to fit (before there was an R32 look-a-like kit from VIS...doh!), OE 1997 Sunny GT sideskirts, carbon fibre hood.
And the kicker: It came from the factory with both rear wing and rear window third mount brake lights!

i didnt read it all

but
If you think that 180 horsepower and 185 lb/ft of torque are impressive for a ‘mildly’ modified engine.
would be impressive... .. this is obviously written by a domestic guy. a 4 bangers not in the same "class" as mustangs and camaros :ugh:

Its funny you mention that. I was in line at tech inspection at the track on friday and there was a guy in a convertible old school domestic talkin on his cell phone. As he was driving down the line next to me he was naming the cars to the person on the phone. He named the mustangs, camaro, f150 etc, then when he got to my car he said "RICE ROCKET". I found it kinda of amusing, just because I drive a non domestic car that I dont deserve respect. Oh well what can you do.

/\/\ hahaah rice rocket. i had a C5 vette like 50th ann. or someshit and a twin turbo G35 coupe by a car length all the way into 3rd gear, last time i was at the track just because i launched so good on them, it was funny seeing them get kinda mad until they finnally pulled me at the end. kinda makes me wish it was a 1/8th mile track, hehe

btw, the lady in the vette was pissed cause she practially threw her helmet into the pass. seat afterwards, needless to say she didnt run a 13.

my body kit isnt painted yet... uh oh
but my car can kick yoursis ars.

This does sound like some of the domestic guys ive run into, and push rods do suck, along with the cam in block they came in.

Honda guys are cool. you all just don't know the right crowd. I go to a weekly Honda meet and I'm the only other make of car there but all the guys are cool as hell and are not ricers in the least. They hate rice just as much as everyone else.


Agreed.

It's just that there's so many of 'em in the world, it's real easy to see & remember the desperately stupid ones. I don't know any of them. I avoid 'em.
