And before you ask what exactly the Rice part is, take a good look at the amps (audiophiles should spot this right away)

I thought I made some fuked up videos (3 done, 4th in the works {http://www.animemusicvideos.org/search/supersearch.php search criteria: member tmann26}) but that one had alot of time and effort put into it (my videos average around 3-6 hrs to complete). Not a bad car overall, just a sound system, no giant wings or anything...

I agree there's nothing ricey about the car itself (sept for the stickers), but take a close look at the system...

Although KEF is an awesome speaker company, they DON'T make amps...

All of the amps on top of the enclosure are non-functional

They fried a long time before and were just painted to go with the "KEF" theme to gain points at local IASCA events...

And those two little amps on the sides aren't even amps

They're actually shop light starter ballasts

The real amp that powered the subs was hidden in the storage compartment behind the passenger seat...





RICE!!

My quickest time was 12.5@110mph on Road Race Slicks

The video was shot 10 years ago with my old Sony F55 8mm Video Cam

BTW, 12A + 50 shot DOES NOT EQUAL 12.5@110mph.

I got the trans out of a wrecked Road Race car at a Daytona swap meet...


Basically the same as stock with slightly closer ratios and an interchangeable 5th gear....
