Ok, I was in shop class today with some ricer people that I talk with during shop class. There's this little annoying kid that we really hate, and he starts spouting off about how he knows more about cars than us. So we ask him a couple questions...
First, we ask him what RPM stands for. He doesn't know. Then we ask him what the difference between a V-6 and a V-8 is. He says the V-8 is smaller :D But the kicker? I heard the ricer n00bs say "Sheesh, everyone knows a V-6 has 6 valves per cylinder and a V-8 has 8 valves per cylinder! I wanted to throw up.

Come on now, everyone likes to bash ricers!

Unfortunately, being stupid != being a ricer.

You're right...all ricers are stupid, but not all stupid people are ricers.

I was searching for specs on my engine, and someone had posted that it had 460 HP because the engine is a 460.

Reminds me of something that happend to me in H/S.

I went out the the parking lot one day after school and there are a bunch of guys standing around a car with the hood up.

I go over to see what's up. Well someone had switched a couple of wires around on this guys dist. by the time I got there, all the wires from the left bank were going to the left side of the dist. and visa versa. I had to explain firing order to the guys, show them the place on the intake Man. that lists the firing order, etc... then I walked off :)

I doubt they EVER got it running that night, no doubt had it towed home.

I would have had it towed. Working on cars has never interested me...I can reline my brakes, change my oil and a couple of other minor things but that's it.

There are hundreds of subjects that I know little to nothing about,
I just keep my mouth shut about them, and no one is any the wiser.

Fine. I told a kid the questions and HE asked the n00b. Do I have to get technical? You will lose if I do. Also, you'd think I wouldn't call myself a ricer, much less insult myself and after being on ATOT for quite a while, knowing that ricers = suck.
