Off Topic Are you a Racer or Ricer? Find out Here

You can tell that ricers wrote that. The mention things like "cams". No no. Real race cars do it with 1 cam. :D They never mention superchargers or nitrous because those aren't really ricer-specific.

Anyhow, I scored a -29%. Just another example of how stupid the test is - who scores a negative percentage?

this is what I got:

Racer X
You scored -28%


Congratulations. You are the real thing. Chances are you could tear down your engine and put it back together in a weekend. You know a decent amount about racing dynamics. The "FATHF" culture has been a bane to your existence since you've been in the game for years before that horrid movie was released. Auto-x, drag racing, track time, you know enough to not sound like an ass while talking about it, and you can probably hold your own on the track too. Race on, good citizen, for you are a true Racer.

Some lame questions though.

You are a respectable tuner. You probably subscribe to one or more tuner magazines and know, quite a bit about your car and/or racing in general. Either that or you play a ****load of GT3. At any rate, you recognize the difference between a wastegate and a blow-off valve. In time, and with practice, you may attain "Racer X" status since it is supposed that you are relatively new to tuning and still have much to learn. Keep, working, and thank the maker that you're not a ricer.

...ummmm cool i guess....i dont know alot about turbochargers, but i guess i did ok....

at 8%

"You are dangerously close to falling to the dark side. Chances are you have a couple things like a Short Ram intake or maybe some lightened pulleys. And you've probably hung around some genuine tuners, so you know the lingo. But most of your money has likely gone into a large erector set wing, or body kit....but at least it's painted. You are a quasi ricer."

At least it's painted :p

I'm guessing that I got this because I'm pretty lazy about doing little things, like changing the oil. That, and my paint and body work cost a hefty chunk of cash and I still have stuff to do in that department (mainly interior and top).
