Well first off, this is not Palmerwmd, this is Former_240_s14.

I am down here in Louisville Ky, hanging out with TonyVQ and Palmerwmd last night and I started to noticed how much rice this part of L-ville has to offer. Let me tell you it has more rice than all the Chinese do in China!!!

We were comming back to Fred's pad when I noticed a 88 Accord Lx with the pep boys brand aluminum racing spoiler, it had an awful lgt. blue paint job, it had a horrid excuse for an exhaust, windshield washer lights, and interior neons all throughout the cabin. The guys and I were def. dying laughing in my car.

Earlier that day I noticed a newer Caviler with a body kit, terrible chrome wheels, and dual exhaust. The thing was the exhaust pipes were smaller than in diameter than a roll of quarters. Fred and I were like wtf??!!!

Preston is the road Fred lives off of and it def. has it share of rice, if you are ever in a quest to find rice, you don't have to look any further than Preston rd. in L-ville.

i'll make it up there one of these days. i would like to see some of those ricer's and make fun of them. but down here in BG, OMG there are some horrible ricers. the guy on here, integraLS96 or sumthin, is a ricer, lol. has altezza's, fart can. we make fun of him so much. he always gives us excuses on why he has those things, like "i am going to go talk to the previous owner about getting the stock tail-lights back" and junk. and yet, he has had his car for like a year and hasn't done any thing to turn it back to stock. oh well. whenever i need a good laugh, i think of his car. i hope he doesn't see this post. there are many other stories i could tell you of ricers down here but i don't wanna use up ALL of NICO's bandwidth, heh heh.

Here we go... I took all of these pictrues while Rubin (Former_240_s14) was driving my car. It's too bad that we did not come across any more than these, especially that 88 Accord he mentions above!

This first picture is of a Chrysler LaBaron. You can't really tell in the picture, but there is a "Supra" wing on the back of it.

Call this rice if you want. I'm not sure what to call it. It's a Suburban that was parked in a lot as we drove by.

This one is one of my favorites. This was one was not taken on Preston, but on I-264 near the Preston exit. This is a good one! You are looking at a very very rare Camry indeed! This is the limited production Camry Type R!! As indicated by the Type R decals on the trunk lid and rear sides! Since it was a Type R it was difficult to keep up with. Thanks Rubin for the aggressive traffic manipulation used to catch up to this one!

And last but not least, we have this pimp Jetta! I was driving when I took this one at a light. Fred was with me this time and Rubn was in his car behind me honking to take a picture! I did not notice the Saab "turbo" badge on the back until I looked at the picture. OH THE HUMANITY!

Nothing yet. I have not had an opportunity to take it back to the dealer that screwed up. I really havn't decided what I'm going to do yet.

Yeah,Repoman and I went down to LOUKY today to meet up with Former 240, Tony and Fred. While driving on 264/265 lost as usual, we saw plenty of rice out on the streets. Both of us can vouch for the sheer numbers of rice out on L'ville roads. Makes Indianapolis look good!Thanks for the hospitality guys. We had a blast.Bud

Lou to Indy is about a 90 min drive.

Yes, I'm a Kentuckian, so I measure distance in minutes!

Actually, I think the drive time from Indy to Dayton takes about the same amount of time.

Hahahaha, yeah that is Buckshot's Suburban. It seems the only people that have heard of him live around here hehe. He is from Shelbyville. He will be at Casper's this year like he is every year.

And yes there is a lotta rice on Preston but to me it is where the little kids hang out at. However sometimes there are some nice cars out there usually of the domestic flavor but there are sometimes nice cars.

What kills me is the shear amount of Gs that roll around Preston with their 13inch wire rims and think they are gangster. Those guys make me laugh the most.
