![]() So I'm at Gainesville Raceway Friday night for a little Street Racing action and I'm paired up against a Mitsubishi Eclipse. I didn't have a chance to talk to the Ricer before the race, as we were paired up at the last second and I was hoping not to race him. He had the usual big fart can hanging out the back and a bunch of techno-crappo screens in the car. I hate racing Rice, as it is no competition (usually at least). Well we blast off and as usual I've got the lead on him all the way through the race (hole shot to finish line (don't take this as any compliment to my driving skill, I suck, my car makes up for me however). At the finish I do notice that he was only about 2-3 car lengths behind me which was a little unusual, meaning closer than I thought the race would be. Well I get my ticket and do the usual scrutinizing of my times and speeds. I take a peak at my competitions number and he has an end speed of 111 mph (WTF!). I immediately figure he has a nitrous setup and he hit it somewhere after the 8th (as his times and speeds up to the 8th were very average to poor, 2.3 60' time, though a decent 8th time and speed (86.9 mph and 9.00 time). We line up next to each other again and there is a bit of a wait. I ask him what he's got under the hood (by the way the Ricer is a very good guy (all my Rice talk is all in fun)). He's got all wheel drive, fully upgraded everything from a bolt on perspective, and a giant turbo pushing 25 pounds. No nitrious. He tells me he's run 116 mph before in the quarter. He makes all of his speed on the top end though. Very impressive for a 2 liter, 4 cylinder turbo. Only other Ricer I've seen that fast in a car which looked very stock was a CRX, however he did have nitrous and ran a 125 mph end time. I ran him again and we had about the same results, me running a high 13.0something and he ran about a 13.4 at about 110. I was pretty lucky as I ran my two best times at the very end of the night, which was against him. This guys car looked pretty stock from the outside, so watch out, you could get busted by some pretty Bad Rice!
