Are you sure? Ricers are known to put their cars in neutral a lot to make it seem like they have a stick (because stickers are faster, and ricing is all about the appearance of a fast car).

FYI, no ricer has ever drifted. RWD and some torque a civic will never have; no matter how big its wing is, how brightly colored the break calipers are, or how much it sounds like an abused weed whacker.

That's a pretty wide swath, but maybe try Moody Street in Waltham. Lots of good options there, not too far from 128.
