is the ricer fad finally dying?

chuck88 · 01-23-2005, 11:08 AM

I forgot where I read an article on rice (I believe it was Hot Rod). they stated that there was less parts for rice at SEMA and that NHRA is either dropping the front wheel drive class or combineing it with another class. But YES!!! Rice is fading away into a bad memory!!

It's cold out there!!!

naw, it seems like it takes Hollywood at least 2 years to pick up on a trend and make a movie about it. As far as the "Import Craze" I would say they were at least 4 years behind. As far as another one, I dont know how well the second did, but if the moneys not there.

Someone needs to write another good musclecar flick, LOL. Put the real cars back into the spotlight.

Well, I know for sure that there will be a 3rd F&F movie. I just don't know when.
