If anyone has ever watched rally racing, or even Top Gear, you can see an Evo is capable of. I consider myself a CAR enthusiast, not a Camaro enthusiast. That's not to take anything away from the car. I guess my point is that you don't have to down other cars or make "car racist" remarks to make yourself feel better about owning an incredible piece of machinery. Alright, lets see what everyone says about this.

Generally, the hatred towards ricers is not the vehicle. I think there's some pretty sick Evo's, STI's, etc. Its the kids in their Civic that put 8" tips and a foot high spoiler on the rear with a body kit and decals that people apply the term "ricer" too. In my book, if it runs as fast as it looks, it aint rice. But if you have a wing for "downforce" and can't pull a 16 in the quarter, you've got a lot more issues than downforce.
