Please tell me kids in rice cars are smarter than this......
I had a kid come up to me in a tricked out Acura and ask me if ever wanted to own a real car...like his. I just about spit my coffee out on him in the Dunkin Donuts. This was happening while it was snowing like hell in Chicago. I told the kid get serious, get an education, and read about Audi and it's quattro technology. He told me he'd outrun me anytime in the snow. I told him Happy Holidays and left.

Not just ricers are stupid....a guy in a BMW 535 was telling me that ...
superchargers were for cars with an automatic transmission and turbos were for cars with a manual. I was like...transmission has no bearing on whether you get a SC or turbo. And then he said...that's the difference between the SC and turbo...the transmission on the car. This person was totally serious.

Where I live, the "Ricers" live in fear of the S4! ;O)
Many have a great respect of the machine
because it has twin turbo's! ;o)
Only the un-educated stray, temps a race, and quickly see's the advantage of Quattro over 2wd, from how far they get left behind on the launch! ;O)

That's no rice cake problem!
What you're dealing with is what I deal with every day- just in a different realm (computers). People and technology are a dangerous combination. My take on it is to gently correct them in their error and let them go if they reject correction in my areas of expertise. Sooner or later they will prove you right in their efforts to justify their own errors. Simply, let the kid be fast in his acura. As soon as he hits a corner, he will be unwrapping his rice factory from a telephone pole with a crowbar.
