Do you even know what Pearl Harbor is and the significance of it?? if you did you would undertand the term rice and its origins...
The fast car remark was in response to someones saying something about 14 second car owners not knowing .. and nort being one fo them I had to point that out

I have to agree with CC, being born and raised in Detroit in the late 60's early 70's it was "rice" or "ricer". The term was in reference to the onslaught of Japanese imports coming in. The most common imports were Honda Civics, Datsun pickups and "Z" ...
For me it still referees to Japanese imports ... Guess I'm still old school.
