This Ricer bashing has grown tiresome.
What bugs me is the assumption that because it's a Honda, it a) doesn't deserve to be hot-rodded and b) can never be fast.
Ever driven an 89 CRX with an ITR engine? Or an Accord block hybrid? Ever seen a homemade twin turbo setup? You think that shiz won't eat you alive?
And as for the rant, in making fun of the ricer, he displays his own ignorance of aerodynamics. Downforce has nothing to do with the drive wheels. The only stipulation is that, for any car, if you're going to do it, you have to do it at both ends. (And then, of course, there's some tuning to do.)
I'm not saying there aren't stupid ricer cars. I'm saying that some of the rants against them are just as ignorant. I did some stupid stuff to my first car, too, and I'm still an avid car enthusiast.
