Since by nature this page attracts people of many different interests within the umbrella of automobile performance (drag racing, autocross, road race, rally, etc.) and people of many different tastes (Ford rules!, Chevy rules, East Coast rules, Mopar rules, etc.) please respect the differing views of others. This message board is a discussion about cars... rice and non-rice... domestic rice, asian rice, euro-rice, or real performance cars. Your opinions are welcome, as are any questions you have about cars or car parts.<br /><br />
Racial slurs and personal threats, impersonating another user, and any other action deemed not appropriate will be deleted. Anyone who violates these rules may be banned at the sole discretion of RF, especially if you deny it when there is proof that you did it. For more on what is or isn't appropriate, take a look at the Message Board FAQ.<br /><br />
It's ok to state your opinion about what is better and why and to debate it with others, but please do not make any unsubstatiated, unintelligent claims. Don't just jump in and say "All you guys suck, my (Brand X) car will blow all you guys away", unless you can prove that your car superior in every way to every car ever made (don't even try it, it can't be done). Debating is encouraged here, stupid statements are not. So if you are going to say something, be prepared to defend it because there are many people who will no doubt disagree with you.<br /><br />
