Its true that we shouldn't stereotype everyone based on what the drive, but I find that most guy driving hot rod honda are a-holes. They seem to think that a over wound 4banger with a loud hi pitched exhaust is faster than anything on the road. I try not to sink to their level and get mad...but they are a danger to everyone on the road and should haver there lic pulled for pulling stupid crap. One thing you can do is turn your tail lights on and off a few times for tail gaters and that will get them to back off a little unless they go road rage which I find they do less when I driving the Bronco.

Ricers wouldn't **** me off so much if they weren't such ****** to deal with. I would go and say 9 out of the 10 people who have a wing and a fart can on their honda civic is a jerk. Some stupid ricer almost hit me this morning just by being an idiot. I figured I could start some road-rage moves, but I decided against it (consitering he lives down the road from me).

Ricers drive like they have something to prove....probably because they DO have something to prove.
They have to prove that their economy compact cars are performance cars. Obviously they're not, so the only real way to prove that they are is to drive like their in the indy 500.

I think the high pitched whine you here when a hot rod honda go by is the tread mill bearings from the 4 mice hauling **** in circles amplified through a mega phone... I actually laugh my **** of at some of those a-holes!

I had some ricer jump into the opposite lane to pass me. It pissed me off bigtime. So I followed him. Not recklessly, just enough for him to know. So he cuts off into some dark parking lot thinking that I won't follow. Wrong. So now he freaks and drives straight toward some white trash appartments. It was a dead end street and I didn't want to get stuck back there, so I backed off. All bark no bite. I was driving my gf's Solara so I guess he thought I wouldn't do anything. I know it may not have been the right thing to do, but it was fun watching this guy run like a dog with his tail between his legs.

I hate people in ricers. Most of them go 90+ on the highways, and act like they are 12. (In which cases, some of them probably are). Most common ricers have, but are not limited to: Tinted windows (Limo black I may add), fart cans, park bench, and an idiot behind the wheel.
I say, let em go. The police will get em'. If not, a pole or tree will.

And another thing-Why do they think that Hondas, Toyotas, etc are made by rocket scientists? I was talking to my friend who is a ricer about the new GT40 and he was like it's alright. I meanProfanity Removed They always say, "Well my so and so rice crap makes 100hp out of 1.6 liters and your 351 only makes 210 so mine is better because of the HP/CI. " Then they think because of the same statement that thier car is automaticly faster. That and they won't admit that torque is important. They say, " To tow you need torque but to go fast you need HP." They won't admit that HP is derived from torque and RPM and can not be directly measured. And all wheel drive this and front wheel drive that and it only weighs 300lbs. After a good night of drinking I have enough aluminum to make 40 of the things.

When you hit someone else with the front of your car it's your fault, because your suppossed to be in control of your vehicle at all times, even when the guy in the Ford is smiling and waving at the same time he locks 'em up.

When it comes time to explain it to the cops you'll get the ticket. The only satisfaction you may get is whoopin' the other punks you know what before the cops show up.

The thing that worries me about these low life jerks that the person they hit head on or side swipe may be my wife or daughter and they better have transportation to mars.
