Come backs for people who get made fun of for driving a "ricer"

I love my car, really I do, It goes fast looks good and sounds awsome. But I live in Canada in a smaller town ruled by Mustangs, Camaroes, Jacked up Fords and Chev trucks. I usually defend my Rx-7 pride daily, however lately I've been getting just bashed at work by all of my domestic driven' coworkers.

I was just wondering if anyone out there had some good lines to use on those 8 cyl. domestic guys.

Hah, well. Just tell them you're little 1.3 liter will kick most of their 5 and 5.7 liter asses hands down, not to mention run around them in circles cuz they sure as hell can't turn! Tell them to stick their 'domestic' crap up their *** since half the time the parts are made overseas anyway!

1.3 litres, 80 cubic inches, no pistons, no valves, no cams, no PITA parts, stick that in your piston and smoke it.

if any of them have v6's of those cars tell them you could beat them going up hill in neutral while pushing your car, the v8's are a different story unless you gots a turbo, and you can whoop any of them in the twisties.

If the guys have fords try:
F***ed On Race Day
Found On Road Dead
I have a personal Hatred for fords (I was/am a chevy Guy until I discovered the 2nd Gen ReX).
Sorry Can't think of anything on Domestic's in General. Hope that helps
Viva La RX-7!

Show them a picture of a Japanese umbrella girl and next to it, some buck toothed NASCAR 'ho with a Coors. That should shut them up.

Care to explain what you've done?

Where abouts in Campbell river do you live? My parents have a house in Whaletown on Cortes Island, and I pop up there every now and then. I'll be heading up there sometime mid sept. I'm sure I could shut up any of your domestic guys in town. Ask them if they want to race for $$.

There is no replacement for displacement... thats why your measly 1.3L is faster (or can be..)

Ummm, yeah

PS: of course, if you remove the trailing, then the engine will not work at all

T for top, T for trailing.

L for lower, L for leading.

Hey! Someone who finally knows my pain!

I found the best way to shut them up is to absolutely kick the **** out of one in a race, then you'll get the respect.

invite them all down for autocross..... bet them all 10 bucks each youl beat them.... then rake in the cash at the end of the day.

they wont believe its your car that won, so just tell them how shitty they are driving, and how skilled you are...... next time they say ****, just get personal and say "at least i can drive buddy..."

Sure it will! A loss of power, emissions, and gas mileage, for sure.. but I've started and ran my car on ONLY leading, and then ONLY trailing several times when I was trying to determine if my coils were good.. It ran in every situation. I couldn't even tell a difference in idle or just revving it.

Actually, i bet it would run with one leading and one trailing in... heh

Tell them that making fun of someone's possessions is a sign of insecurity and they should seek help before it results in a personality disorder.

Tell them that what you lack in displacement, you make up for in ***** size, then say, "Why do YOU need such a big engine?"

I don't think most of those domestic guys would understand any of that.
