Nor is anyone trying to get them accepted as "hot rods".


I looked at ricers with an open mind several years ago and didn't like them so now that my mind is made up Ther's no chance anything you say will change my mind. Your mind is just operating at a lower level than mine so it looks good to you.


If your post and your comprehension (or lack thereof) is any indication, I would highly disagree with this. However, I'm sure in your own mind, you, sir, are a genius.



I don't go to ricer websites and tell them they should get a real car.


Show me where anyone said "Buy an import!" or the equivalent *anywhere* in this thread. Distorting conversations and statements to fit your own weak platform only pokes more holes in it.


I have a fast Porsche
Once again, "fast" is a subjective description.


but I don't try to sell the guys here on the advantages of German engineering and I don't tell the guys on the Porsche website that they should put a Chevy engine in their cars. If you want replies that agree with yours go to a ricer site.
As for the flame fest it looks like you are the first flamer not Brickman.
Once again, you're distorting the conversation. Is it a matter of grasp of the english language? Or a simple distortion of reality? As neither points in the prior paragraph have any truth (or supporting evidence) in the thread.

As for me flaming, well, yes, you can consider this "flaming" now.
