I absolutely "love" ricers. They try to race me with all the time with they're ridiculous spoilers and lack of horsepower. With my stock tC (or mostly stock considering that I've only changed the bulbs for my headlights to HIDs) I've always pass them and laugh. There was one time where my sister tried calling me a ricer b/c I wanted more Hp in my car.

A long time ago that was but now i really don't care about powering up my tC anymore. I just want the soon to come eight cylinders of furry (you guys know what I'm talking about).

ill be honest. i have an auto car and i put it into neutral at a light as im really lazy to hold the brake. i dont however rev the car before putting it in gear cause that is really stupid.
when u hear those cars that sound loud and with the big ass exhaust thats from a "coffee can" exhaust, those cheep ones u buy at autozone and napa and whatever. when people buy full cat back exhaust with such names as magnaflow or borla it sounds pretty decent(not a v8 or anything but its enought). i for one am running a mazdaspeed 3 cb exhaust on my mazda3 which has a stock 2.50in exhaust tip, and the exhaust is silient up to 2500rpm until its starts to growl not fart lol.

k now time to beat on ricers. i personaly hate when guys in these cars pull up behide u with their stupid 8k xenon headlights, and their high beams on. i have tints on my car i still get blinded by these jacka$$'s. i also hate when they doo a "ricer fly by" lmao its the funniest thing. me and my dad are crusing in the camaro and all of a sudden 2 kids in a pontiac sunfire all decked out with wings, and lips, and sideskirts and what not decides they want to fly by my dad , lol stupid kids got their butt pulled over for speading in a school zone hahahah

I remember fondly having a car load (i.e. 4 people) in my '99 Z28 as we pulled into the parking lot of a local movie theater. A guy in an Integra Type R and a guy in a Probe GT were revving their engines right in the main lane next to where the line was forming for the ticket window. I wasn't sure WHY they were revving their engines and acting dumb, but the Folger's Can Exhaust didn't really make much of an impression on me. I pulled up next to them, unloaded my passengers and one of the guys looked over at my car and pointed and laughed. I smiled as he yelled over to me, "You wanna run?!" I responded by revving my LS1 V8 with the SLP Long-Tube headers and Loud Mouth Exhaust (essentially NO Muffler). The guy just stared as I put my hand up to my ear and kept yelling, "What?! What?! I can't hear you!" I finally stopped showing off and the guy yelled across to me, "You're dumb, man. You don't know what I got!" I responded with, "I know what you DONT have." He got mad and punched it out of the parking lot, lost control of his FWD rice rocket and sideswiped a car 2 lanes over. I just watched and laughed as the police were called and he was issued a ticket for wreckless driving or C&I as it used to be called in NC. The guy in the Probe GT with the huge body kit just about duplicated the feat. I will say that he got his tires to spin a little bit. All-in-all it was one of my favorite "Jackass" moments.

That happend to me today. about 5 kids in a riced out VW passat i think had the cheap tuner rims, the ones that cost like $500 for all 4, and a fart pack that was damn near scraping the ground. you could tell they cut the springs cause the wheels were all toed out and the car bounced like a bowl of jello. they pulled up next to me and kept revving the engine, it sounded like a busted leaf blower. Now I just have the 3800 series V6 in my 'Maro with stock muffler and exhaust, (getting the Magnaflow dual kit at a later date) so me revving my engine doesn't sound that great, but i digress, so anyways as the light turns green he stomps it and manages to squeak his tires, lol. at the next light i showed him how he was supposed to do it and left a 25 foot long pair of skidmarks on the pavement. normaly i wouldnt give then the satisfaction but i've been really giddy latly with all the 2010 camaro photos and updated info. Plus it's in the Camaro Laws. :P
