Surrounded by rice....

The Deuce · 05-08-2002, 08:20 PM

I just got back from the CPA exam out in Pomona. I have never seen so much rice in so little time. Last night I walked to In-N-Out for a study break, and everything that pulled out of the lot was blowing off. MR2, Prelude, Sentra, things that really shouldn't have. I figured given Pomona's legacy of drag racing to see a couple v8's. Nothing. I almost expected the grill to have a blow off valve for when the guy gave me my food. Luckily somethings are still normally aspirated.

I did see a clean 98GT when I was at lunch, that guy was obviously from out of town too. Man I need a Mustang, anyone want to trade straight up for an Escort?!

This whole import "infestation" is horrible.....i couldn't justify spending money on 90% of the vehicles i see "modified".
I'm sorry to hear about your traumatic experience.

I couldn't justify "modding" a car to get it to a puny 200 lb/ft torque. I'm sure that's alot of torque for most rice though...
