Anyone who puts a wing on a front power, front controlled car should be shot.


/that is all

Yeah, but other things you can do to improve FWD handling--like taking the front sway bar off--don't help you get any ass from the trailer park hoochies.

Okay subby, I laughed at that.

I need a picture of an 1987 Dodge Aries K car with racing stripes and a spoile please.

Please?

PLEASE?...?...?

My brother-in-law would argue with you until you're blue in the face, the shade of blue would probably match his $12,000 Dodge neon with a carbon-fiber hood and a spoiler.

Aries K? Try 1992 Honda Civic.
 
2007-05-22 11:15:58 AM
I am reminded of when I was in high school. During frosh week at the local University we went out in my Aries K (1987 model) to cruise around. The Dodge logo on the back where the trunk lock was, was the right size for one of those Lava-Cone fireworks. We duct taped a lava cone there, rigged up a whack of small fireworks duct taped to the sides of the car and shot fireworks all over the Queens Ghetto. People started calling it the BatKCar because of the lavacone on the back. Surprisingly no cops pulled us over either. Ah the memories. Thanks Subby!

Do they even have ricers in Africa?
 
2007-05-22 11:17:04 AM
Ah, the K-car. Make fun of them if you wish, but when my Dad's finally died, it had 284,000 km on it. Just keep a spare 'MAP' sensor in the trunk and you are good to go!

Yeah, send UN Peacekeepers to deal with rapes, that's a good idea.

UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - Sexual abuse of girls by U.N. peacekeepers in the Democratic Republic of the Congo was widespread and ongoing despite many revelations and probes, the U.N. watchdog agency reported on Friday.

The peacekeepers over the last year have been accused of gang rapes, sexual harassment and bribing children as young as 12 or 13 with eggs, milk and a few dollars to have sex in bushes, on the bare ground or under mango trees.

One French U.N. staffer, who made pornographic videos of children, was jailed in France for rape. South Africa is taking action against two soldiers. Allegations have also been made against soldiers from Uruguay, Morocco, Tunisia, and Nepal.

Did the assault happen in K-cars? *confused*

vernonFL: can we ban those coffee can tailpipes?

I second that notion. My buddy actually taped a coffee can on his tailpipe just to show those kids how ridiculous it looked. Yea, they didn't pick up on it.

/Dude! You're exhaust looks so bad ass!

The VW Corrado had an automatic spoiler that raised at 50mph and dropped below 10mph. And it was FF. Shouldnt have been, but it was.
 
2007-05-22 11:33:18 AM
FTA: "The Hague court's prosecutor said his investigation would mainly focus on the large number of alleged rapes."

Ha, ha, ha...Rape!


Now heres a picture of some dumbarses car:

I'm sorry. Go for a late '80s Dodge Omni 2.2 Turbo with a Super 60 kit. 300HP sneaker.

there is a rices out Saturn that always is parked up front at work. I see it every day as I walk into the building. it has stripes, a large spoiler, the signature coffee can exhaust, and large letters across the front window that say "Saturn Racing" (an oxymoron if I have ever heard one). It does make me smile every day walking into work. I have yet to see who drives it. There is also someone that drives a Delorian.

2007-05-22 11:50:29 AM
What I don't get about riced cars is how they all have that same song. Does it come with the decals? You know the one, the really bass-heavy rumbly one that shakes the windows in my condo development as they drive past...

Never saw anything that bad, but did see a license plate that said "Yifflvr". I threw up a bit in my mouth.

I can't defend some of the things these idiots do to these cars, but I have to object to your classification of Saturns as non-race capable vehicles. As an SCCA solo competitor (back when I had my MX-6), I ran into and even drove several excellent Saturns. The SCCA even had a series for those cars for inner city kids back in '99 I think - most of the cars were donated. Then Dodge got into the act a couple years later with the Neon.

Pretty much anything can be a damn good racer, it's just that gay stickers, bad wheels, and horrible wings don't do anything but make your car look stupid.

And you didn't run it off the road? WTF man?
 
2007-05-22 12:18:05 PM
The Aries K was quite possible the worst car ever made. My mom had one. It was ugly, it smelled back, and it just plain sucked. That said, it was an absolute TANK in the snow.

And regarding racing Saturns, you can race anything with wheels. That doesn't make it ok.

/mom also had a saturn, also a POS

Hey don't knock the K car. Some dude made a 10 second K car

Sure it isnt' too stock... still it is a K car.

Not too bad for FWD.

I always wanted to make a sleeper station wagon. Like an 80's volvo or something.

Anyone see that impala on pimp my ride? They dropped a 6.5L turbo diesel in it. The thing was burin up the track with bio fuel.
 
2007-05-22 12:28:52 PM
I knew a guy who totally tricked out his car...hood scoop, big fat racing slicks, jacked up rear end, flame paint job, the works.

It was a Vega station wagon.

memimage.cardomain.net

here's mine, btw I like the beaterz.com, any reason it not to have updates since 2001. the last post was may 01 dude alot of stuff happened since then. I would think if he is still paying the bills for the site he'd do something with it

 
2007-05-22 01:29:26 PM
KielbasaVr6Six6 the corrado also had an amazingly designed front splitter and the wing was there to keep downforce at a constant across the entire car, and it worked well.

My first car was a 1989 Aries.

I had a friend in the peace corps over in CAR. He said it was the armpit of Africa. 12 year old kids eating Qhat and struggling to keep their AK-47's from going off.
