Default Post your Stories about Honda Ricers...

So I decided to tell my "expereinces" about run-ins IF you any stories w/ these damn Honda wannabe race car driver losers.

1. There was a RSX(DC5) totally stock w/ an Intake, tinted windows in front of me..I guess he spotted me Switched lanes slowed down...waited till i was next to him and BAM!..Revv'd his engine and took like a Banchee....WTF!...haha

2. Saw a civic SI maybe a wannabe SI stopped at an intersection going the Opposite side where I was stopped..I guess he spotted me too Stared to REV up...the light turned Green he gunn'd it in front of me...I just Laughed..

3. Just today about 20mins ago a EX civic 01-05 ALL riced out w/ Go-Kart Muffler, Altezza Tail lights and Decals galore..starts tryying to race me down the street I was like WTF?...u gotta be kidding me....HAHAahahaaaa....

Oh Man I have many others...Just seems like its mostly Honda Drivers that keep REV'in their **** at me and trying to race....ALL the time!

Glad I got outta the Honda Scene.

There are actually quite a few nicely done Honda's in my area that would embarass my tC. When they are done correctly, I absolutely love them. But, they are few and far between compared to the typical ricer.

4 door '90-ish civic with four guys in it tries to intimidate me on the 5 northbound, swerving, speeding up, then slowing down, then rolls the windows down and start pointing and gesturing... no thank you....

On the 5 going south, 2000 something civic with some dude and his chick/sister/aunt/whateva pull up next to me and do the whole speed up/slow down 'cuz I'm a hard a$$ thing. Eventually he notices I'm not interested in playing that game and he takes off like a raped ape. Jackass.

Not talking about How Nice Hondas are....Talking about the "racer mentality" that Honda drivers have..Always REV'in their cars w/ Go-Kart sounding mufflers...

Just about everyday some one tries to race, the whole thing about is, you never kno who really has some power or not. Most of the hondas around my way that look like shi*, the owners just focussed on the motor...

the first day i had the car back in NY, i was out with my boys and we stop at a stop light and this POS civic hatch pulls up next to me. no joke was like 5 different colors, fart can, etc etc. he says to me " you wanna lose to a 400 dollars POS?" i just looked at him and laughed. as soon as the light turned green he floored it, missing every shift. i waited for him to have about 5-6 car lengths then didnt even floor it to catch up to him.

i love ricers : )

but it is true that if done up correctly honda's are one of my favorite cars.
