Nice race's dude.
You have to wonder what some of these import guy's runing mostly stock engine's are thinking.
Word has to be out by now to not try and run against domestic muscle, but they keep comming.
Do you think it's because of the " I know I'll lose but I'm gonna go down swinging" mindset?
Anybody have some insight on this?

RE: A Rice weekend.............
very nice kills. The VW was had to have been the best one. I always like messing w/ imports.
I think that a lot but, not all import owners hear "rustang" and assume that it will be slow. Also, a NEWER _____ can always beat an older, more mileage 5.0 Fox. hahahhaa Newer doesnt mean better.
Although, there are some cool import owners. I have run plenty that just want to run them to see what they would do. Similar to us running a vette just to see what we can do. One in particular told me after I complimented his clean and very nice looking integra, "Well, it is my car; it is no mustang but I like it." Not a bad mindset.

RE: A Rice weekend.............
I got three rice stories from this weekend, and I was going to start my own thread until I saw yours...so I guess i'll just add to the humor
Race 1...Galant with rims and a "system"...both the guys gave me the mean staredown at the gas station. Later on, they saw us on the road...tried to pull a fly-by on me, but I just downshifted and left them...this happened about two or three times until they didn't mess with me anymore
Race 2...A saturn with an exhaust...revving at me, I didn't really want to race him, but my friend was with me, and he never has been in the car while I got on it...so the saturn got like a 1 car headstart and I just passed them.
Race 3...not really a race, but it was pretty funny. Super riced out tiburon is flying down this road. Me and this 99 gt gave the nod, and we just started surronding him, then an 03-04 cobra pulled in front of him. 3 mustang exhausts going off at once with the tiburon in the middle was pretty hilarious. We saw it later at the place me and other cars hang out..and my friend kept pointing it out and saying how it got "mustowned"(pretty lame now, but funny at the time)
