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).ClutchDisc wrote:I was behind a ricer coming home today. It was a early 2000's Focus with a huge tail pipe and a muffler that was so loud that I couldn't even hear the S-10 revving! It was a stick though!

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.watkins wrote:

Jokes aside, that's awesome. The kid can't jump around and do stunts like this:
...but he is enabled to kick some sweet drift action.

@bostonfit (I don't know if that does anything...might not be the right SN anyway). Anyway, I'm going to Randolph for work tomorrow, know any good food off 128 between 2 and 24?

Re: Misc Thread VI: Return of the Threadi
That's a pretty wide swath, but maybe try Moody Street in Waltham. Lots of good options there, not too far from 128.DrJerryrigger wrote:@bostonfit (I don't know if that does anything...might not be the right SN anyway).
