Promoting ricer literacy

Post by ColonelPanic »

Now there's no reason for a ricer to not know how to read! Not only does this spoiler provide the massive amounts of downforce necessary for a 110 HP car such as this Hyundai Accent, but it also provides you a place to store that set of encyclopeidas! Or at least the ricer magz with the half nekkid chicks climbing all over cars. Either way, reading material will always remain close at hand!http://www.topspeed.com/cars/h....htmlComplete rundown:110 HP/106 lb/ft torque stock+250 HP from the spoiler+100 HP from the body kit+25 HP from the electrical tape on the fuel door+50 HP from the flat black paint, clearcoat adds too much weight -75 HP because of the extra weight in the headlights from them being full of pissSoooo.... bottom line is don't mess with this one, even youse guys with lift stand no chance! I my Accent, it's a great little car - but far from anything sporty, that's not what it was meant for - it's a cheap fricken econobox! It saddens me to see one violated in such a manner as this! lol!

Reminds me of the concept pics floating around for the Subaru rally hatch rear spoiler.thats so silly. I'll roll next to it with my functional spoiler holding my 300HP to the ground and school it in first gear.

Oh cool, that one looks like a place to put your mail! Gotta leave it to Subaru to come up with something soooo cool and now everybody's gotta copy their ideas! Anybody care to tell me how the hell one of these spoilers is actually beneficial? Looks to me like they would cause more turbulence than do anything useful but I dunno squat about aerodynamics.

I was wondering where my DVD rack went to. Guess somebody found it and put it on the back of a Hyundai.

Maybe that's the arrow to line up where they originally wanted to put the bookshelf of a spoiler.Quote, originally posted by ColonelPanic »Or at least the ricer magz with the half nekkid chicks climbing all over cars. While I may not think the most of ricer culture, there's never anything wrong with half-nekkid chicks on cars

OUCH - that just hurt my BRAIN. I've done some "Ricer Mods" in my day, but that was like Foot Pedals and Shifter knobs and what not. It just blows me away that someone thinks that looks good.

if those ugly wings have the ability to be functional on some cars, why aren't they on cars like vettes or even nascars? sure nascar has a little spoiler, but nothing like the ugly "functional" monstrosities some cars have. are they only functional on japanese cars?

Hey, those are my wheels! Someone else out there likes them too! Lol...not sure I should be happy or not to be sort of associated...This wing does provide downforce - the sheer weight of the thing pushes the springs down at least an inch!

Hey now, I drive one of these cars... They pump out a whole 110 HP, not 100. But by the time you add all that stuff to it, the net effect from the additional weight probably is like it has 100 HP. lol!

LOL, yeah mine's in stock, non-molested form. No arrow on mine, I don't know why the hell they put one there... Other than to say "hey, here's where you need to attach stuff to pull me out of the ditch when I'm acting like a moron out in the woods pretending I have a subaru!" lol Maybe I can get out some duct tape and make an arrow, that should help my 0-60 time!
