Talking Ever seen/heard a grenading rice engine?

I don't know if these links have been posted before, but they're probably worth another go-around in any event:

And the follow-up:

That was great.

I think his ego went from 100% to about "oh crap, I hope mom and dad are gonna pay for this"%.

Speed costs money, how fast can you afford to go?

If you can't run with the big dogs, stay on the porch.

Damn....thats funny you posted that. I was in school earlier and this guy who was sitting next to me was just talking non-stop about his ricer. I kind of know him, he's this know-it-all loudmouth type. So he's going on and on how he gots nitrous, a new cam, all this junk in his new integra. He says he's beaten camaros, just about everything there is with it.

I asked him how much he put into it, he said it was like 12 grand. I try telling him that if someone with a z28 put that same amount of money into theirs, they'd blast his car easily and just about every other car out there. Well he got all mad at that...

So when we were walking out of class, this guy gets in his car and drives by me. He flips me off and just guns it. It was kind of impressive for about a second, then i hear this "WHOMP" and i hear particles of something fly everywhere, kind of like a trashcan with sand in it getting kicked all over the place. This guy stops dead in his tracks, i run up to see what happend and i see oil all over the road along with small metal particles. He gets out with a stunned look and said "what the $&%& was that!?!". I tell him he just blew his engine. He shouts "No way!".

Then he got under his hood and shouting "No way!!!", "oh my god no $&%&ing way!" and such for about 5 minutes. He was getting highly emotional, he started kicking and punching the sidewalk, shouting gibberish and cursing god. I was getting cold so i went to my car, he was on the verge of tears when i left him.

I was impressed that the one set of guys was able to tear the motor down and identify parts.

The other dude no doubt was toast. That thing was reving high when it went, you could really hear the parts clang around until they stopped.....major damage dude.

So awsome. We need more stuff like that around here.

I would be so proud to have been driving the M3 and seen it all close up. Thats the hardest I've laughed all day.
