No, but he is the race God that inspired me to take my accord to the maximum racecar level. Since my inspiration, race God is now a part of my accord. I also compete in formula rice.

At what point on that scale does one become riced? I personally feel that 7 cups should be the delimiting factor here.

It seems to me that many ricers spend much more time butchering/ricing their cars than is in that chart. Can we extrapolate?

I see a lot of rice that would be defined in barrels, not cups!

Of course, but that doesn't make one not a sports car. If we are limiting it to only the 1 top performing car, then only one car is a sports car at any given time.

There are tons of cars that perform better than your BRZ/FRS/86 that I wouldn't consider sports cars.

The point we were talking about was your definition of a sports car. And a Boxster is still FAR more of a sports car than your BRZ/FRS/86. A Cayman is also. They provide a different experience, and yes, on the track I prefer the Cayman. On the street, I'd go with the Boxster.

You have got to be joking.

Any vehicle car be riced, even a RWD lawnmower.

The bottom one will still be faster at the track, and so much more fun on straightaways without that torque dip! haha

I'd save my breath as it's clear to me from that response that he's a troll.

tptwrc, keep thinking to yourself that "All FWD Hondas are ricers and the FR-S and BRZ are superior sports cars." Repeat that mantra to yourself as you're getting passed by a Civic on the track and maybe you'll convince yourself that it's true.

Not a troll. Just another guy that convinced that RWD = Performance and anything that is small is a sports car.
