I found this on the Maxima forum, I think it originated from a V8-Engine forum though.

Enjoy.

"Twas the night before Christmas and caught at the light,
Was a domestic V8 and no cops in sight,
I will try, I will try, I will try with this small motor,
To beat this damn Camaro, even with it's big blower,
As light goes green and I pull like no joke,
The Camaro erupts in clouds of tire smoke,
Now Smasher, now Rev-ver, now Stroker, now Blitzin,
These are the names of my four VTEC pistons,
Racing ahead I'm the Star of the action,
But I know I'm in trouble when that V8 gets traction,
Grabbing second, I hear the RPM sing,
My mirror is blocked by my Shopping Kart Wing,
I now hear the roar, of that big monster gaining,
All I can do is keep that four-banger straining,
In a second, the shockwave hits with a blast,
And my stickers go flying now, a thing of the past,
Don't bother with third, cause now it's too late,
Just try to act cool, like you can relate,
Looking up at the taillights as they get smaller,
The driver backs off just to give me a holler,
"You can't win them all," he says in fling,
"You may not win any," in that silly thing,
I smiled and revved as he pulled out of sight,
With my new mods tomorrow...it will be a better night."

Nice find! Thank god the Acura TL (hopefully getting the Type S) is a 6 cylinder though... never heard of people naming their cylinders. Maybe I should start naming mine (Infiniti QX4). Which Maxima forum do you visit?

It's actually pretty cool. Graphics are nice:

Riced to the max
Tail-fin rice action :)
Review @ IGN

It's a pretty good game, the thing I like about it is it's a hybrid between a sim and an arcade style racer...it's a sim in that you'll play it for a long time, and you can improve (rice up) your car as you go, and the handling is sort of arcade...kinda have to see it to know. By the way, those links are for Tokyo...2.

Thanks Konichwa for the links. Do the in-game racing look like the replays in terms of graphics? Or is it like Gran Tourismo where the replays beautiful but the in-game graphics are garbage.
