I hate how the V-8 crowd generalizes the import crowd. Yes, the "scene" is a fucking joke but we have real enthusists. I'm not one to make back handed comments or say "I told you so" but I know all of us have seen those idiots that buy a new trans-am and think they are next to godly-ness. They are ricers with more C.I.
Here is a perfect example- Bobby and I were in Reno a couple weeks ago and this guy that was obviously compinsating had a newer trans am with the loudest exhaust I have ever heard on a street car. He was weaving through traffic trying to catch up with us, almost causing numerous accidents. He pulls up to Bobby and I (we are in Bobby's WRX) and just stares. I told him very sarcastically "nice driving bud", his reply was "get a real car." Let's just say minutes later he did a loser flyby and I had a thumbs down hanging out the window and Bobby had the middle finger.
A V-8 friend of mine showed me that little article and I couldnt help but laugh because some of it is true. In a way I enjoy ricers, because they give V-8 guys big heads and then one of them come across one of us, and lose. It just makes it all the more sweet.
