	Rice rocket - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The term is derived from the speed of the motorcycle (rocket), and the "Japanese" origin of the vehicles (a reference to cultural and historical importance of the rice crop in Japan).
		Rice Rocket is an American slang for imported Japanese cars often modified, customised, and tuned for performance or racing use.
		Additionally, rice rocket is sometimes used synonymously with the term rice burner.

	deseretnews.com \| Amaechi a Rocket; will Rice show up?
		John Amaechi and his embarrassingly large salary for sitting at the end of Utah's bench are gone, and the Jazz actually got something in return — conditional draft picks, qualification for the NBA-minimum team salary level and less of a payroll/salary cap hit for next season.
		Rice's pay for the coming season is on the books for $9.6 million, but his actual salary is somewhat less due to an upfront bonus he received for signing his four-year, $36-million deal three years ago.
		For instance, if this year the deal calls for the Rockets to place in the first 12 of the lottery, and it does, the next year the stipulation might be that Houston would have to place in the top 10 in the lottery.

		A slow car, usually a 4 cylinder mitsubishi lancer or hyundai excel that is 'riced' up by the owner by putting stickers all over it and adding a rear wing (for extra downforce on the rear to improve acceleration in their front wheel drive car).

		Delicate as a lily and sweet as cherry blossom, Rice was the pride of her strict, traditional family.
		Rice wasn't like other girls who obsessed over lipgloss and Hello Kitty...Her fantasies were filled with chassis, transmission mounts, superchargers and T-gauges.
		Rather than allow her to bring more dishonor to the family, Rice was given two options: She would wed a 65 year old pig farmer and spend her life beating his laundry on a rock and caring for his 36 children.

		As for what is 'rice' and what isn't, it's always going to be a grey area where people have their own opinions on it.
		"Rice rockets" are fast Japanese cars but any cars that have been modifyed in bad taste, no matter what their origin can get called "ricers".

	Valkyrie review from a rice rocket rider
		My first thought was that I was going to rip all the chrome off the pipe in about 5 seconds taking any corners, but it handled them well.
		It does not corner like a rice burner or anything, but it was smooth and took curves at over 100 mph, so I was satisfied.
		This bike is very well made, it is fast, it handles well for a bike of it's size, and it is extremely comfortable.

		Not to be confused with a "tuner car", which may be quite a bit faster than anything you've seen away from a racetrack.
		Adapted from it's original meaning in the mid 90's, a term used to describe an R-Type vehicle based on the phrase "riced up", which denotes a heavily modified car that is usually an import, where the cost of the actual modifications usually exceed the vehicles bluebook value.

		For every rice rocket out there that actually has some speed, there are 50,000 that have a stock 4-banger with 125 horses, a $100 aftermarket muffler, and a sticker that says "Fast" on it.

	"couch rocket" definition from Double-Tongued Dictionary (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-04)
		Crotch Rocket to my understanding is a ‘spin off’ from the term ‘rice rocket’.
		Though ‘rice rocket’ has been coined to mean any zippy little Japanese car (or zippy wannabe), the term ‘Crotch Rocket’ came out of the ‘need’ to define the typically over-powered Japanese motor bikes.
		I really don’t have a dirty mind, but when I was in college, a “couch rocket” refered to a really desperate guy falling on a sofa with his date.

		Rocket from the Crypt is still a fl belt in the art of punked-up indie rock, but Group Sounds sorely lacks the musicality and catchiness of their previous releases.

		If you go with the rice look, most people are just gonna shake their heads when you drive by (maybe a few 14 year olds will think your car is cool, but thats it)....if you want that, go rice.

		Not since the 1960s, when Bruce Lee introduced martial arts to middle America, have API males played such a major role in shaping pop culture.
		Rice rockets have generated whole new industries, from import car shows that boast attendances of up to 10,000 to the mostly Asian American import car models, whose faces (and bodies) are featured on dozens of Web sites devoted just to them.
		Ed Arguelles, coordinator for AutoFest 2001, an import car event scheduled for July 23, sees growing interest in the import scene, evidenced by an increase in import car clubs and hefty profits — some $20 billion annually — posted by the modification industry.
