I hate to beat the ricer horse, but what's the best excuse a ricer has ever given you for why he lost a race? That, or what's your favorite ricer-bashing quote.

Now, I'm not talking about imports in general, but the true ricers.

Domestics can also be riced out, keep in mind.

The best excuse I ever received was when this dude told me he had his wing tested and it produced too much downforce, so he had to get it fixed... WTF???

I know my Mustang is only V6, but I can still beat a lot of ricers. I really enjoy racing with my '97 Dodge Intrepid (3.5L V6). Ricers usually think its big, family sedan, and I don't have chance against them.

The excuse I usually hear is that their car is too good comparing to my Intrepid and they didn't really want to race.

Yeah, Lincoln Mark VIII's run low-15's to even high-14's stock, and people get the most surprised looks on their faces when they get lit up by one.

After I smoke one they usually pull up next to me at the next light and tell me how their engines are more hi-tech than mine. That makes me fell even better because my "low-tech" engine just smoked them.

I like the line, "I have more horsepower per liter than you could dream of!" Yeah... Not hard, seeing as you have 2.0 of 'em...

...and be sure to speak very slowly so they don't miss the joke.

And they need that 5" tach because the RPMs climb soooo fast on a I4 from 5,000rpm on up...
