Who thinks that this ricer crisis orginated or helped originate from the fast and furious movies, ever since those movies came 10x more ricers came polluting the streets of planted earth. I think those movies are to blame.


I gotta admit i liked the 1st and 2nd movie but like it becuase of the races and had an ok plot but i never liked the ricer cars.

The ricer problem was a crisis before those movies, and caused them. It became an epidemic as a result of the movies.

I actually liked the second one, but i think it is only because the first ten minutes had a old skyline in it Yeah, I think thats it because I never seem to watch the rest of the movie. Never saw the third one. I was told it was a waste of my time.

The 3rd movie is a waste of time it has no plot and no good cars, not even ok loking ricer cars like the begining of the second one and no races at all, it was all about drift racing and they were boring they were drifting in mutistory parking lots.

Wouldn't be the first time a real car was put in their show...Charger, challenger, and camaro did make appearances in the first two shows. As for how the producers made the cars look in terms of HP and racing ability, we won't get into that. Not to mention the skyline he was driving at the beginning of the second movie. Thats the sole purpose that i watched the second movie because he was driving a R34 skyline, and he only drives it for ten minutes

I'm sure there will be. Haven't you noticed the trend in the FF movies? They wreck all the real cars.
