I think it can be concluded that everyone has their own opinion. Everyone here can see that.

Of course, Spike knew that from the beginning. He just really likes to stir the pot for his own amusement.

considering that the huge wing and front clip actually did their intended job.... I dont think so.

I've never been a fan of Mopar stuff, but even I acknowledge that that car really delivered results.

What is the purpose of that wing, though? Its surface is parallel to the ground so it's not creating downforce.

they are used as benches for before and after the race.









seriously tho, it isnt perfectly parallel to the ground. nearly parallel, but not completely. it does offer significant downforce at speed compared to the base model of the charger or belvedere that the respective cars were made from. in fact one not so known fact of why the spoiler is 3 ft high is because the designers started a lot lower, then kept raising it and raising it and raising it and raising it till their track numbers started to decline, then they went back to the last height which was 3ft. and left it there.

I can't remember what I was watching but they said one of the reasons it is so high is to open the trunk, since the spoiler is not mounted on the trunk lid itself.

Didn't they put the front nose and rear spoiler on this car because without them the car was so fast it would lift the front off the ground?

That is about as non rice as it gets I would think.

Although 3 foot wings do seem a bit excessive

If it's producing results....

no, i don't think that is ricer, but its getting there actually, starting with that color and wing.

This thread brings back memories.

In this part of town where i know every ricer, hondas, for some reason they are switching over to scions tcs , still ricer and of course they had to add some rice to them.

And here are some more for the thread.



wait....is that a wing on the hood? i don't wanna see the bumper.....

this was the website, lol http://www.stangbangers.com/RiceRiceBaby.jpg


Can you guess the best thing in this picture?


You got it, the sobe bottle.

Nice spot, he'll never find you there.
