The Ricer Fly By

[Cano]

didnt happened that much to me, because I drove a 82 ford fairmont wagon... and well, you dont xpect to race one of those hulks (still, it ate some mustangs and even a camaro once...) I didnt get that many races, but it still was a good sleeper, at least in its league (read slow V8s... didnt have mods because I didnt have money and it was the family car) that of course ate little cars... Id just remove the damned fuel economizer and swap the carb and I was ready for a fun nite... aah, they were good times... hope to get her back so I can really hop her up and the dont eat mustangs, but porsches and vipers

Cano

maybe they've all rusted away? i remember seeing HUNDREDS of fiat tipos in the UK back in the early 90's but i'll be damned if i've seen a single one since the year 2000, people throw them away and thats that, you never see them again.

from the looks of the glh its probably a good thing too


question, do you pronounce the name cam-AIR-o or cam-R-o? (the word camaro)...

also something occurred to me about rice this morning, if u had an evo 7 kitted out for rally, proper racing mods and everything and u drove that on the streets, u couldn't really call it rice, since it needs all that kit for stability + speed. so if your car is 'riced out' but has the engine to back it up (400+hp) then its not rice anymore. unless of course you stick on stickers that no one pays you for and if u drive like a moron (ricer fly by) then ur car becomes auto-rice whether it be a ferrari f50 or a civic type r

cam-AIR-o.....***-er-o....anyway I like the rice comment by Nightmage82

 

[Shinez]

Exactly..There are plenty of show quality cars that are fast, hell..Look at Supra's and Skylines and Rx-7's...90% of Rx-7's just don't look right unless they have a huge spoiler...Sometimes it matches...Alot of the times it matches............Rice aint nice, but fighting rice is coo

 

[Joey D]

I don't like any wings or spoilers on most car. Camaro is ok since its built into the car.

RX-7, Skylines and Supra aren't fast as hell, yes they are quick, but fast? No a Corvette is fast, a Viper is fast, a Saleen S7 is fast.

 

[Shinez]

Lol..Supra's arn't quick..they're fast...Not many corvettes are FAST...What...2 models..no 3?

 

[Shinez]

ok then...M5's, Porsches....Camaro's look like crap...MOST vipers arn't that great stock and a saleen s7 costs loootts of $..Want me to name a bunch of independant exotic cars that have wicket top speed and look nice?

 

[Joey D]

your saying 0-60 in 3.9 seconds is slow?

 

[Joey D]

your saying 0-60 in 3.9 seconds is slow?

 

[Shinez]

Once again....That isn't fast..That's quick..I thought we established that like 13 times

 

[Shinez]

An ATV can do that with mods..Does it mean it's a fast ATV no..it means it's quick

 

[skylineGTR_guy]

lol.....Im thinking ATV with NOS....5 inch pipe and huge spoiler..funny

 

[Joey D]

The Vette will do 175 limited.

Well then what about the Saleen S7? It goes what 190mph and the fastest 0-60 car right now.

The Viper, 195mph and 0-60 in 4 seconds

Thats fast!

 

[Shinez]

............The Saleen S7 only does 190..I would have thought it did higher, what's the CTR2 do in real life..The AWD one that is...Aswell as that isn't it the Z06 that does 175, not just a C5

3.9 is the fastest stock cars acceleration?...That's poop I can run faster than that..Nah J/k,..But um....Supercars.net seems to dissagree as do I..I always thought it would have been the ZL1 aswell..Since the ZL1 is the only Foxbody that gets respect from me and all.

[Joey D]

well according to Road and Track its the fastest

 

[skylineGTR_guy]

faster than a Mclaren?

 

[Joey D]

Fastest production car. The Mclaren is no longer produced, i think. Or maybe is it's the fastest American car.

 

[Shinez]

Lol..No the Mclaren is the 2nd fastest..top speed wise in the world...it is the fastest officially but the 2nd fasted unofficially....unofficually it was taken out by the W16, and The Saleen S7's 0-60 is 3.9..The Zl1's was 2. something

 

[Shinez]

The blitz Skyline R348 does 0-60 in 3.0 flat...And the Camaro Zl1 does 0-60 in 2.7
