Thumbs up fast and furious invasion........

alright guys, i don't know what you are all doing in your neck of the woods, but my roommate and i down here in west palm want to rain on the ricer parade down here. either fri. or sat. night we are going to the muvico in royal palm down here. so if anyone is interested please e-mail me at es25@msn.com
even though fri. is the opening, i might not be able to make it because of prior engangments, but might be able to make it later in the night, if not lets do it for sat.

I know they may not be as common as your garden variety hopped up civcs, but what are ya gonna do if you run into like an 11 second TT Supra, RX-7, 300Z/X or VR4? i'd feel kinda stupid being all pumped up for something like this only to get my *** handed to me in 3.5" tailpipe (not rice tailpipe mind you--a turbo tailpipe)

I suppose that could happen, but stock the Supra is the only one that is really hardcore fast.

The 300ZX, RX-7, and 3000GT VR4 are all high 13 cars. Well, you can get a little better out of them, but not much from the factory.

Drive your foxbody hard, you should be able to pull a low 14 with freebies in most cases.

Yeah, that's the way I like to play it. Know what works for me almost every time? When they're next to you at a stoplight and rev their weedwhacker, rev back a strong single time to them and let 'em know what they're up against. Many times I've done this and heard the other guy say, "oh sh*t!" under his breath when they hear my exhaust. Heavy intimidation factor. Enough to where they won't concentrate on the race and foul up.

Most ppl around where I live aren't worth the gas, although a friend and I played around with a '96 Mitsub!tchi turbo tonight, hehehehehe.

A few of my friends and i want to see that movie (i can already tell it's gonna be lame) and i already know all the ricers from where i used to live, where i'm going to see the movie, will be swarming there with their fart carts, hopefully i get to waste a few. I doubt any fast ricers will be there considering there's like 10 slow ones to each "fast" one. most are stickers, rims, and body kits around where i used to and currently live.

hey 84stang, don't you know that the stickers are for aerodynamic purposes. they give the car an extra .5 on their times .
