When your sitting at a light and some other POS is reving his engine, just to try and get you to hammer it. No thanks. :rolleyes:

I don’t sneer at the ricers I find them amusing. It is a nice distraction when you are driving down the road concentrating on the body you have to dispose of when a new victim…err…I mean ricer drives by causing you to chuckle. Ahhhh…you have to cherish moments like that. ;)

My first car was a Datsun 310GX. It was a great little car. I like most of the "ricers." Ive always liked the Datsun/Nissan Z series and think the Nissan 350Z is a car I might get. Though they need to be updated, the NSX is a hot car.

What gets me are the cars that look similar to Corvettes, like the trans am. I think its pretty funny when they look at your car and think they are driving a car thats just as cool. Yeah right.

Ricers usually. I can resist them quite easily. I like my insurance rate where it is(Not really) and don't street race. Now, if they we're at e town, the bs stops when the green light drops.

I hate most Camaro/Mustang/Firebird wannabe hotshot drivers. 'Look' they say, " I can put an OBNOXIOUS flowmaster exhaust on my car with HUGE chrome tips and drive like I am in the Indy 500 during CA rush hour". Don't get me wrong, F-BODIES are NICE cars (no comment on Mustang), and I wish to own a few of them someday. Vette drivers carry themselves well for the most part, and vette themselves are unobtainable to most folks (even though they really aren't), so vette drivers I think are good and respectful drivers. Give 300+ HP to an 18 year old for <20k, and see what happens. Sometimes I wish Camaros/Trash-Ams were more unobtainable to the unwashed masses.

A V8 does not give people a right to drive like complete maniacs when others are at risk.

RICERS!!!!!!!!!!! I HATE RICERS!!!!! I just think it is hilarious that some idiot will spend 5k on a 4 cyl P.O.S. to get it to try to hang with a vette. They are obnoxious as hell. I have respect for almost all American muscle. It is what makes this country the greatest!!!!! I have owned 5, 5 litre 'Stangs and am preparing to build my 6th. I think that any nice 70's 400 4spd TA is also a grat car :cheers:

I love driving down the road and I can see a ricer trying to get up with me, and when he pulls up along side I laugh at him. They just hate it :yesnod: For some reason they think there civic is equal to, or better than a vette :nono: . Silly Ricers.

I don't sneer at anyone, but I do get a lot of laughs at "ricers" and kids with after market exhaust. Most of these types just want to see us run. They know that they have no chance. Except for those serious ones, then we get to race..win some loose some. :smash:

Too bad you can only vote once. There are several "types" listed that get a snarl from me.
