Wing Command Meet - Canceled for Sunday 7-30

It takes money to actually go fast than to just sound fast. Need to attract the more mature crowd with good jobs and can afford an entry fee, pay for dinner at the restaraunt, and have something to lose with a reckless driving charge. As harsh as it sounds, the kids that live at home and are just out doing crop dusting fly-bys with their biplane wings need to be weeded out to get/maintain the actual car enthusiasts.

This shit seems to be native to import meets.... Never seen drama like this at any F-body meets.

Go to NOVA and you have a much older and affluent import crowd aka megameet

I think people came up with that definition of ricer more recently.... a shithead's a shithead, and rice was always used to refer to a different market... some folks just chose to use it in a derogatory manner.

I think some people get too much adrenaline rush from seeing alot of nice cars that they want too stand out in some type of way so they do stupid things and act like a bad ass to get everyones attention and be talked about, so they think theyre so cool and shit.
I have to agree on the import thing.. I drive an import, I have friends that drive imports.. we don't do stupid shit.. there are plenty of well behaved import owners.. BUT, 70% of the problems do come from the imports, at least around here. the other 30% is redneck retards in their trucks. just a bunch of idiots starving for attention and nothing more. They all need to just be shot and put out their misery.

I'm not saying you are or aren't because i don't know you, but I believe that the persons overall attitude and the people that they choose to hang out with is what makes them a ricer idiot , not what kind of car they drive. I know a few people who have very nice well maintained cars who are cocky "ricer" trash-talking idiots, and some people with primered civics who actually know a good amount amount cars and are pretty down to earth.
