define rice

ok, every one always says they are anti rice. or they say to avoid ricing it out.
yet it seems every one has there own idea or views as to what makes a car a "ricer"
to some its stickers adorning every available inch of a car. to others its putting every possible part available on the car. i.e. hood lights, neons, odd ball wheels, a nine foot ironing board on the trunk....etc....

what would you define a "ricer" as?

This is very subjective, but I have to agree with KrasD though.

my definition of rice is stickers and wings that are aluminum and/or higher than the top of your car. it is all good to me though, whatever the person likes, it is there car anyhow. I mean, there is "rice" and the there is a "clean car" exact opposites imo i like both personally i mix it up for it does it for me and that is all that realy matters

Actually to correct you they called them "Rice Burners". That was a term used by Hot Rodders for import cars.

Rice to me is this *** I saw driving a J-Body with a GTR badge on it. A wing that belongs on an F-15, a sticker promoting a part you don't have, an exhaust system that sounds like you're doing 120 MPH but really just backing out of your driveway and a kid who thinks his barely moded powerless little car can beat anything and tries to prove it to you...whatever, it's just my two pennies.

probably a cultural barrier here my friend...not sure what the point of your reply was...I merely stated that I first heard it used at a drag strip a good number of years ago...

"Your Highness"???? lol...ok...if you say so.

It's all different wherever you go...everyone uses a different terminology for everything...what we in Canada call boring, you call baseball....

what we call Hockey, you probably call retarded...

either way, lets agree to disagree....lol.

Am I Canadian? Baseball=boring and Hockey=the best sport around.

Honestly, I dont think there is such a thing. If you see someone driving down the road and you call em a ricer they are probably sayin the same thing right back at you.

Right on bro!

I can't sit through a baseball game without getting angry that it took 4 hours of my life I'll never get back! If you get 2 great pitchers then what happens....You get $300,000,000.00 worth of outfielders picking their noses for 9+ innings...retarded.

Hockey is like football but without all the stoppages. High speed carnage....muhahahahaha!
