Any one actually street race?? Options

[97sccelica]

Anyone who races on a public road is a complete and utter tosser. No arguements.
It is totally stupid and the participants are usually young pricks who have a severly depleted neural function and an extremely small ****.

you havent seen the street races here in SoCal

the real ones anyway, they are dominated by people in their late 20's to well into 50+ years old. and they dont just race around from light to light. they have set streets that they go to in the middle of the night with look outs everywhere.

oh yea, and they only race for money, otherwise, they dont even pull their car out of the garage.

i went to one in palmdale. long ass straight road in the middle of the desert, no one around for miles. the race was for $1160. turbo mustang vs turbo civic.

then a few weeks ago i followed these kids(16-20) to a local industrial center. it too was empty, but these were the moron kids that just race for fun, there were 26 cars there with about double that in people.

at the end of the night i had to help a moron get his car off of a hill where he crashed trying to take a 90 degree turn at 85+mph in a tiburon.

everyone tore ass out of there when that happend, i wasnt actually there because i left shortly after i arrived(no one wanted to run for money ) then came back to dump off some trash after the crash happened.

a real organized street race is a lot of excitement. if you go to one, my advice is to just watch, **** can get crazy when the loser does not want to pay up

I once saw this street race where there was this super fast Orange Toyota Supra with decals on it going against a real nice black Dodge Charger.  Then, they both hit their NOS and jumped over a railroad track and then black Charger hit a semi and flipped.  It was cool.

Street racing is dangerous.

I haven't raced in about a month and of course racing is stupid it kills a couple hundred people a year (so do truckers, well thats usually in the thousands). IDK bad or not i'll do it because I would personally rather take the chance of being hit by a Civic doing 65mph than a Mustang at a strip doing 120mph, but that's just me (BTW that almost happened twice at Rockingham last time I was there). Street racing does have some sad endings, like this guy had his alignment knocked off, but was out the following weekend with enough a** to blow his tires in a burnout (for whatever reason IDK).



BTW he asked who races, not if it was bad, if you want to knock it then go find some muscle head NHRA forum and talk about how bad it is there, oh wait organized drag racing was started by a bunch of street racers prior to the first drag strips in use (dry lake beds in the Mohave) after WWII (cars and racing have been around much longer). Saying street racing is bad and nothing ever comes from it would be like saying the NHRA, NASCAR, D1GP, and even the WRC are bad because that's what came from it, if not for street racing then you haters would have no Formula D to watch on TV or a local drag strip so stop knocking and learn a little more than the bogus a** fatality stats that the NHRA post from like 3 years ago (in which there was like 3 in the entire state of Florida over a 2 year period).
