Kare 11 is having a street racing special tonight at 10pm. They did a short preview this morning and it looked like they had a 1g caught on tape. Just giving anyone intersted the heads up.

I was down on Uni last Friday and a lot of people were talking about all the stupid kids acting it up for KARE 11 on film. Apparently they were lining up to give interviews and proud to act like dumbshits in front of the camera. Racing four wide in their civics, parking brake induced spins, playing chicken. We were going to watch them all get busted but the cops were thick in that area and we didn't want to get lumped in with the idiots. Think of the hottest most policed racing spot off of 280, thats were they all were. Wonder how it ended?

yeah, I swear I saw and recorded like 5 ricers on foodsmart and also recorded a Helicopter heading towards 280 last saturday. I better not be seen on the News tonight!

hmm....i hope that there's no 2g in there.
i wasn't on Uni, but i saw alot of cars on 280 when i was going home.

watch for the conquest. that's all i'm saying.

but actually i'm gonna say more, i was trying to get my BOV (one word) to pop off in front of porky's all night.

People should learn to drive more respectably, that way people don't get pissed/annoyed and we could actualyl hangout w/o being harassed. I really bet if people started calming down while driving down there (especially the louder cars) the cops would ease off. With all the resident complaints I'm sure they get, they have to keep the preasure on.

That's why Places around Porky's are never being busted up. People there are more mature and actually DONT do dumb stuff all of the time......
Plus, there's way more nicer cars around there than around Foodsmart, HAHA.

Darn, I missed it.....

**Goat Blower** · 05-11-2005

Yeah, the street racing thing is lame, too many dumbasses mucking it up. I will be grabbing a spot down at Porky's once in a while though, the crowd there is pretty cool, and the rings are the best I've ever found.

Is that what the person on the side of the road with the tripod and camera was doing? I thought he was probably a cop.

Don't forget the cones.

Just saw the showcase on University Car Fanatics..

Doesn't look too good for future car enthusiasts on Uni anymore.
I wonder if those guys caught racing had a talk with the cops.

j/w - Were any of you guys at porky's in screen?

Ricers

IndiEP · 05-12-2005

I wanted to watch that but was @ work. Hopfully someone recorded it and will upload it.

Here it is and it is pretty gay. They refer to ALL import owners as "Ricers." Pretty bad, but thats what the media does..

The really gay thing is that my gf's sisters boyfriend has a riced out two tone cavalier and her sister thinks I am the ricer (just because its an import), bahahaha but having the news call all import owners "ricers" doesnt help.

Lets come up with our own name for domestic guys that rice out their cars. Anyone have any ideas?

**Kracka** · 05-12-2005

Wheaters. Thats funny the media refers to us/them/whatever as "ricers" since that can honestly be grouped in the same catagory as nigger, spick, chink, cracker, etc. It was originally used as a derogatory term before it became descriptive for a type of car owner.

*edit*
OK, I just watched the video and they really didn't call anyone a ricer, just said the import crowd is referred to as ricers. Hmm oh well, it wasn't that bad of a segment, at least they realize most the people out at night aren't causing any problems. Just like anything else, its a few causing most the problems.

clean2g · 05-12-2005

wtf was that? another example of the crap the media puts out there. Didn't another news station or the same, can't remember, show something like this a year or two ago?
