It’s Time for a Fiesta!

RETURN TO RACERDEVELOPMENT HOME PAGE


Although I’m not actually talking about throwing a party, this new car from Ford Motors Corp is just as good as one. Being a longtime best-seller in Europe, Ford has turned its greatest weakness – small cars – into one of its greatest strengths. Specially trimmed to consumer requests, the Fiesta has a lengthy option list including a new automatic transmission and a strong dose of big-car refinement. Placed at under $15,000, Ford has really set a new bar for stylish, cheap, and gas efficient cars.


The Fiesta is offered as a sedan or hatchback (4-door and 5-door). Offered at 3 different trim levels; S, SE, and the equivalent SEL sedan and SES hatchback, there is an affordable Fiesta for everyone.


The most basic trim, the cost-competitive Fiesta S, comes well equipped featuring supportive seats, plenty of sound insulation, standard air conditioning, a tilt and telescoping steering, 4-way manual driver’s seat adjustment, power mirrors, front-row floor mats, capless refueling, a rear window defogger and no fewer than seven airbags.


The SE trim of the Fiesta takes it to a whole new level. SE Fiesta comes with dress-up chrome bezels, better cloth seating, keyless entry options made standard, a message center, and trip computer on the dash, power windows, rear window wiper, and mirrors in the sun visors.


At the SES/SEl level, the Fiesta is placed with many entry-level luxury cars. Coming with 80-watt 6-speaker sound, floor console with USB port, 7-color ambient lighting, SIRIUS radio, a leather steering wheel and Sync on the inside and trendy LED parking lamps in flashy chrome bezels and heated mirrors with marker lights on the outside, the Fiesta has a trim level for everyone.


What could possibly go wrong with this new Fiesta cruising the streets? The Ford Fiesta will surely bring the party to the streets without making a party foul.

El Chupacabra?!?!

RETURN TO RACERDEVELOPMENT HOME PAGE

Anyone believe in this Mexican monster? The “chupacabra legend” is that one of the ugliest creatures to ever walk the planet is a goat-sucking beast. A barn in Hood County, Texas, has become ground zero in the hunt for the chupacabra.
While cruising along one day in his sheriff’s truck, Animal control officer Frank Hackett had spotted one of the strangest creatures he had ever seen in his life. Suddenly coming to a halt, Hackett had shot and killed what was unquestionably one of the ugliest creatures to walk the planet. Was this thing indeed the elusive goat-sucking beast?

That wasn’t the only chupacabra sighting around Hood County though. Several miles away, a second grotesque creature was also spotted and killed. Both of these creatures appeared to be either hairless coyotes, extremely ugly dogs, or, who actually knows?

Officer Hackett and another officer from the scene both say that this creature “wasn’t normal,” and that they have “never seen anything like it.” Hackett is waiting for DNA tests before he assumes the name of the mysterious beast.

Keep your Grill Clean!

RETURN TO RACERDEVELOPMENT HOME PAGE


The shape or design of a grill can drastically alter the appearance of a vehicle with one glance. For those who do not know what a grill is, a grill is the front part of the car typically between the hood and front bumper. This part, in my opinion, is made to prevent any small object from entering the hood. By altering this part, you can customize your ride!

Since I am a Honda owner, I will talk about Hondas. The basic Honda grill, comes with a Honda sign in the middle with “wing” shaped bars along the sides. Generally, Hondas come with the silver Honda sign, but in this picture, the owner has altered the symbol into something called a JDM Emblem.

Another type of grill though, would be a mesh grill. In the picture below, the person switched the stock grill into a mesh grill. Basically, its a cleaner grill with almost nothing on it.

There is a large variety of different types of grills to customize your own ride. So go look around and make your car unique!

Stickers, Stickers, Stickers!

RETURN TO RACERDEVELOPMENT HOME PAGE

Who likes random stickers on their car?! Stickers are one of the best ways of customization to a car, plus the cheapest. Though, sometimes too many stickers may give off the wrong image. For example, when I see a car with a LOT of stickers, it gives me the impression that they are something I call a ricer. I personally look down on ricers and just laugh at them, since they honestly are good for practically nothing. No offense to any of you out there that fit this description. A ricer is basically someone who mods their car with a bunch of worthless stuff only for the looks. Along with this, every ricer I’ve seen does not know how to drive their car very well, which is another reason why I look down on them.

Putting stickers on a car doesn’t automatically make you a ricer though. A few stickers, or even just random stickers (not brand name stickers such as AEM or sparco) could just identify personality. For example, I have a Pedobear sticker on my car (I’m not a pedophile, I just like the character) because my friends always joke about how I’m a pedophile just because I’m the only 18 year-old in my group. There are also other stickers like “NOTW” stickers for example. They pretty much just show a sense of personality and character in the owner of the vehicle. It makes a vehicle unique and personalized.So basically, go get some stickers on your car! Just follow what you enjoy best whether it be to be a ricer, or just show some personality. There is practically a sticker for everything you could possibly want!
Note: Some people believe that stickers add horsepower. That is completely false.
