The term "Ricer" doesn't bother me as far as from a racial standpoint....well, I guess it all depends on how you see it/use it.



I use the word as a play on the word "racer".



RICER - n. (rye-sir). 1. An import car owner who claims that they can race, yet is more concerned about slapping a tip on their EXH system, a giant set of speakers, and more counterproductive modifications to their vehicles. 2. A Honda owner who claims that the massive amount of stickers on their vehicle of choice is an increase in performance. Also known for fixing large, unnecessary wings to the back of their FF cars, not out of necessity, but because "it looks cool", whereas any FR owner with sense would know the wing is counterproductive since no downforce is necessary in an FF.



But, like I said, depends on who's using it and how..*shrug*
the next person who makes an aero comment like that will be fed to my scarab beetle collection. Ask Realtime Racing....LOOK AT THE BTCC YOU ******* MORON



2 asian guys i know (one still has the japanese accent) have called many a car/driver/******* driving units ricers



"deh ricer his wing is boosheet"

their rear wings on FF cars are needed due to the high speeds they run at while taking corners etc. it's ONLY needed at high speeds on FF, liek super high, long maintained speeds. not "hey im going to school" speeds.
