Haha... umm... how to put it...
My brother and his friends used to refer to the PTC area as "Rice Central." There are maybe 20-30 non-rice cars in town that are modified, and that's probably a little high.
Let me put it this way:My Sentra has an intake and a short shifter. It probably runs an upper 7s 0-60. It makes ~130hp and ~130lb/ft at the wheels. It's one of the fastest modified cars in the lot at school.
Why? Because it's not loaded down with body kits, spoilers, blangin rims, etc. (LSD helps too

)
However, there are a few incredibly fast cars down here. The fastest N/A E30 BMW lives in the area, it's owner runs out local tuning shop. That shop has several VERY fast vehicles. There's a Firebird that is scary as ****. There's an Eclipse GS-T and a Talon TSi AWD that are painfully fast, I believe the latter has a 16g. An SR powered 240SX, though he's now at Tech, but he visits from time to time. Not to mention the turbo M5, 750hp blown classic Mustang, as well as a real Saleen 'stang...
blah blah, there are a few nice cars, but they are few and far between. Rice is the dominant species.
