Feel free to burn my toast if this has been posted before:

Race or Rice Personality Quiz

My results:
Racer X -26%
Congratulations. You are the real thing. Chances are you could tear down your engine and put it back together in a weekend. You know a decent amount about racing dynamics. The "FATHF" culture has been a bane to your existence since you've been in the game for years before that horrid movie was released. Auto-x, drag racing, track time, you know enough to not sound like an ass while talking about it, and you can probably hold your own on the track too. Race on, good citizen, for you are a true Racer.

Hrm, 2nd question disqualifies me right off the bat (truck!). Oh well.
 
lol...fun stuff. But I really wanted to answer that one question "I like monkeys :)"

Gran Turismorator
You scored -22%
You are a respectable tuner. You probably subscribe to one or more tuner magazines and know, quite a bit about your car and/or racing in general. Either that or you play a ****load of GT3. At any rate, you recognize the difference between a wastegate and a blow-off valve. In time, and with practice, you may attain "Racer X" status since it is supposed that you are relatively new to tuning and still have much to learn. Keep, working, and thank the maker that you're not a ricer.

"you play a ****load of GT3"
dang...how'd they know?

One of two things happened if you received this rating. Either you know absolutely nothing about tuner culture and chose "no idea" often. In this case, i guess i could say congratulations, but really you wasted your time taking this test...actually this test is a waste of time for everyone. The second option is a little rarer. You must be someone that knows a lot about either mechanics or racing, but jack about the other subject....or you're just guessing. Either way, congratulations....you're mediocre...but still not a ricer, for which you should be thankful

I scored

Racer X - 25%

I was rather surprised. I had heard of the downpipe, and never of an 'up pipe' (?). Which are on either side of the turbo, I guess, but which is which?

[Darin]hmm... Post this in the Drifters forum and see how they score! Ricer +100% probably![/Darin]
 
If I own both a RWD and a FWD vehicle, what do I answer to the first question?

This is shaping up to be another of those stupid tests...

Heh, turns out it's the same thing I had already done it on another forum before... First time I did it over there, I got racer X, but this time I got Granturismotator. The choices on order for the 4 strokes are completely messed up, none of the available choices are the actual processus. 👎

The up pipe is between the turbo and exhaust manifold, I believe. There are WRX guys who get performance up pipes to get rid of a pre-catalytic converter and unlock some ponies, get rid of a lot of turbo lag, and kill penguins.

The downpipe is at the exhaust end of the turbo, that actually goes out the exhaust. I know that for a fact because I replaced mine.

PS. I got Gran-Turismoroater thing as well.
 
I'm a granturismorator. Can't argue with it.

Lots of wrx guys replace their down pipe and have over boost problems until they get new wast gate or grind the entrance to their old one smooth.

I've heard about this. For some reason unknown to me, the downpipe can cause boost spikes upwards of 17 PSI (stock peak boost is 14.5). However, my Vishnu TBE hasn't cause me any problems.
 
Well, I'm technically not qualified, due to im-part that I drive a Chevy Tahoe. I filled it out as if I had one of my dream cars, an R31 Skyline (which isn't AWD, it's RWD).

Results:

Racer X - 26%
 
19% and a horrific accusation of playing GT3 a lot. Ho hum.
 
Gran Turismorator
You scored -18%

... Not to bad for a "drifter" and a teenager is it?
 
23% - Gran Turismorater

Although I had to lie about a few questions seeing how I don't own a car, so I took the quiz as if I owned my 'realistic' dream car, an S13 240SX.
 
Gran Turismorator
You scored -17%

PunkRock: The stroke order was right, but they didn't have it as a single sequence. I was expecting Intake, Compression, Power, Exhaust, but there was Power, Exhaust, Intake, Compression.
 
24. HP at the crank is a function of crank torque and RPM only
  • True
  • False
  • I like monkeys
What if you DO like monkeys???
I got 15%, btw. No complaints here.

Snort! I know absolutely nothing about what was being asked but apparently I "probably subscribe to one or more tuner magazines and know, quite a bit about your car and/or racing in general"

I guessed most of them or clicked them randomly.
