ok well it wasnt that crazy, but it was the first time i have ever seen something like this. a riced out sentra and it was a type R with the driver being in his 40s(estimate). how many older guys have you seen driving riced out cars? i didnt get the chance to run him, cus i was on the clock at work...

I have seen a few ricers around here with old guys driving. Also around here most of the ricers I see now are women driving. I don't why but oh well. Got to love those Type R Nissans

Yeah I saw this 40yr old guy in a Civic with GFX and wing. Not sure if there was a fart cannon on there though. I really hope it was his son's car.

If a chick is driving a car that looks like it's been worked on, I don't care if it's yellow with purple polka dots and a quadra stack wing on the front. Especially if she's good looking. I was at a cruise with one of the old techs here at work and he saw a riced out yellow civic with white wheels and a big wing etc. He thought it was pretty cool.

My friend who lives in San Diego used to own a '76 CVCC civic that was FATF green with no bumpers and it was lowered and loud blah blah blah. His 70 year old dad would drive it around when he was at school and try to race Ferrari's.

i saw a guy who was about 55-60 years old down @Huntington Beach CA, with a 300zx all riced out and a 300 shot of NOS, people were crowding around the P.o.s. like it was really cool. The only thing cool on it was the spoiler (LOL), it didn't even have rims on it. A 300 shot of Nos though, I Didn't ask him to race...

Are you sure it wasn't a 30 shot of nitrous? We all know that ***** math makes a 3 hp gain from a K&N filter into a 30 hp gain, so a 300 shot of ***** spray is about a 30 hp shot in reality. :lala:

i once saw this guy from the army in this little hatchback civic... had a fart tip and all the stickers one could think of.... he was in full military dress...
and a 50 year old guy came in today lookin for a intake for his Infin. J30... my jaw dropped.... he used to have a 68 GTO that ran 10's.... where did he go wrong?.. he said he had strait pipes for his J30, yes dual exhaust.... i just told him to make something for his car out of exhaust pipe and a clamp on filter....
it also doesnt help when ur boss had every Si honda made.... he said he would put intakes and exhaust on it and they would be fast..... yea...ok

I was driving to return some ignition modules that I had borrowed to troubleshoot last week, and I saw this rice rocket on the freeway with a huge exhaust tip. As he was taking the offramp ahead of me his exhaust disconnected from the I pipe back(it was probably duct taped or something) and started scraping on the ground(this was at about 60mph). He pulled over. I was laughing my *** off. I bet his 5 inch tip hit something on the road since it sticks down so damn much. Of course the piping going to this 5 inch tip looked to be about 1.25inches in diameter.

Probably a muffler off of a Peterbuilt. LOL

Even Muffler shop guys have a sense of humor.
