Rice Burner haters, why????!!!! Options

[YellowTwo]

okay, these 2 people were talking about burning out and stuff cause they had their so called "american muscle" cars and i said that my car can burn out pretty well but not really good. so one of them gets pissed off! he tells me "you might be able to PEELout but you cant BURNout"...i didnt know there was a difference!

so then he tells me "you cant even talk in conversations like this cause you have a rice burner you f***er." so then, later, they are talking about how many valves they have in their engines and they both say 2 valves per cylinder and i say "i have 4 valves per cylinder so thats like 16 valves." (not trying to act like my car is better or anything) and the guy gets pissed off again! he's all "no you dont! thats bs." anyway, i tell him im positive because it says right on the engine "16 valves".

this just pissed me off very badly. he always talks about how "4 bangers" suck ass. some of them have over 300 hp! plus, he has this crappy $2300 '89 mustang w/a crappy paint job and he thinks his car is sooo much better than mine. he hates all rice burners and i just dont understand how people hate them so much. he knows that i know that his car is faster than mine...but its not slower than **** like he says it is.

thank you for listening to my frustration of these kinds of people.

fact is i was reading the fourgasm article in C&D. they had a bunch of "ricer burners", made by some fairly decent aftermarket companies out there testing their cars and such to see how they measured up. they had some pretty quick ones, and most were in a pretty decent price range. the most expensive was a cobb tuning WRX which totaled like 84K, the second most expensive was the Comptech S2000 which was like 68K. the comptech finished the competition the fastest, which consisted of a standing 1/4, into a road race section, then onto the oval track where you brought the car to 130 MPH, then once you did that, you got onto the brakes untill the car was at a complete stop. all in one run, testing all aspects of the car. (this was done at CAL speedway.) well after the competition was done, and everyone was packing up, they brought out a bone stock '04 Z06 which i think cost like 58k, which spanked every car in every aspect, and finished the course 1.4 seconds faster than the comptech S2000.
