i can see why they thought it was funny while doing it, but there have been many stories that start off just like that, and end badly.
when we used to race honda's we would clown on the white guys who followed suit saying they were trying to be "asian" .. sometimes it would lead to an altercation .. and ya that was when we were all in school still.
in this case, no harm no foul. just be careful tho

seriously kevin, sorry dude but that was not a ricer, all because it was a Honda doesn't mean its a ricer. no giant aluminum wing, decals everywhere that don't match or make sense, mis-colored body parts, neon's, and scoops everywhere. It was a pretty clean prelude with and exhaust, maybe engine work but by far a ricer, nor did he have the persona of a ricer. Unfortunately you are the RICER, you and your buddy have the ricer attitude and are usually the dumbass in Honda's doing stupid stuff that started the whole "ricer" name given all modders the bad name.
Kevin you are really disappointing me, especially with the other recent post of a cry fest, i hate Volvo's by the way. Grow up, chill out, and think about what path you are headed down. Don't become a Ricer

Everyone, relax. The video was posted for your entertainment. The only thing on the car was the fart-can exhaust, but we needed an excuse to flash the RICER sign and to make a hilarious video. After showing him the ricer sign, the way he reacted to it really did show us that he was a ricer; continuously trying to race us and then throwing a bottle at me because I didn't race him because I couldn't hear his honking over both our exhausts. Even though it got to the point of him throwing something at me, I didn't at any point feel like I was in immediate danger. If the guy starting tailgating me or coming dangerously close to hitting me, I would have stayed away from him...me and my friends aren't idiots, we were just trying to have a little fun.
Like jk062602kj said, my friends and I are in school...I'm sure most of you have done things much worse when you were in school haha.

Here are a couple of stupid things I did while I was in school. A 1990 Mazda 929 S
Going 40 MHP pulled E-Brake. (Smoke Everywhere)
Kid in school had a 1989 300E raced him beat him very high speeds on street (90 MPH)
Pulled E-Brake on turns.
ReRouted alarm wire to horn wire and high beamed cars while honking (alarm sound) people thought I was an undercover and pulled over then I drove off.
During U-Turns use to punch it all the way and fishtail (Smoke Everywhere)
Middle of night I went to rich neighborhoods with my buddies bullhorn (with the wannabe siren) and turned on siren and said "Stay in the car, don't move" "Hes got a gun" the screech my tires and went to another neighborhood.
Use to put Rockey Theme song and when I saw people running I use to slow down and blast the music and slowly start moving.
But don't get any ideas. My whole point is we have all dont some stupid stuff.

The whole "we don't know any better because we are in school" excuse is a little paradoxical, don't you think?
I don't think its *that* big of a deal... but its not something I'd personally be proud to do or share...

IMO, racing ANYTHING on the street is retarded, let alone in a non-AMG benz. You don’t drive a sports car…

If you watched the vid and listened to the comments, you could see we weren't out to race him. My friends just wanted to show him the ricer sign. He was the one who kept trying to race me on a busy two-lane.

I dunno if being in school is an excuse. I'm probably only 2 years older than kev. I wouldn't have wasted time messing around with that guy. All he had was an aftermarket muffler on the car, not really a big deal.

Lucky that clean prelude had patience toward your/your friends immature actions. If it was me in the Honda, I would have probably swerved into your lane and caused an accident or done something stupid.
