Yeh well I'm no street racer but might I say to the LA cops, sort your own mess out before advising others what they should do. Like crack houses and no go areas of LA

Bunch of gay boys if you ask me, ooh real crime is soooo hard, lets pick on something easy and then make out how wonderful we are. How do you LA people put up with this nonsense? If you want it keep it, we have enough problems of our own without importing yours.

its not if you get cot street racing, if you get got racing with stolen parts on your car, in CALI anyway, i got got chasing a porsche doing 153 in a 70 and most cops just dont wanna deal with all the BS like court paper work and the like, unless your act like a ricer and get cought with like nitrous or the idiots who take all the smog stuff off their cars to gain the 10HP, you shouldnt really worry about them taking your car..

street racing if done the right way can be VERY safe, the idiots who crash during a race are people who either have no clue what they are doing or drive over their limits, every street racing accident i have seen was from a stupid driver, there is very rarely a true "accident" but street racing aint what it used to be, cars are just cars they can be replaced and rebuilt, i honestly would kill myself if i killed another person in a street race..

But while we're on the topic, here's a local news clip I recorded about streetracing:

its fine to crush the ppls cars who are actually street racing, and caught doing it, thats why there are racetracks, and some, like my local one, offers friday night drag racing, tons of passes for 20 bux. in ontario canada right now, they are crushing cars that even look sporty. if you put wheels on a cavalier, or honduh, they will impound and crush it. dont even think about body kits. now to that i say its a wee bit harsh, i think a car is kinda some ppls pallet to draw on. and customizing that is one thing, but it doesnt mean that there gonna race.

their are people fighting(lawyers are winning back cars) this sayings is unlawful for the govt to crush your property. even though driving is a privilege does not make it right to destroy your property.

haha, i like that video nismo, its pretty damn funny how they make it seem street racers are ingenious super villians. they use cell phones and light signals OMG!!! they are outta control soon they will take over the city. i saw one nice car in that whole video, the s2k.

The guy in the 350Z probably crashed on the way to the races because he was talking on his cell and couldn't drive at the same time.

its easier said then done for going to a race track, not only that if you like only driving 5 laps on a crowded track full of slow *** honda's and assorted vehicles while spending $500 in the process.

Tracks are over rated. I hate the whole take it to a track thing. Half the people don't know what there doing anyways. Last time I went to LVMS, I got told I couldn't drive around the water box. I tried to explain I was AWD, and the idiot working the lanes said to me, just burn the water off. I politly told him AWD don't do burn outs, they grab and go. That's why you have AWD.I eventually got kicked off the track anyways. And they don't prep the track correctly unless there is a big event. I've seen alot of people get squirly on the big end.

I dont plan on street racing any time soon but I can see why some do it. For me its over an hour drive to the closest 1/4 mile and thats a lot of gas money for a young kid.

hoov100

the nearest 1/4 mile track is 3 hours at pomona, i got kicked from willow springs the last time i was there for basically driving to fast and the car "not having the proper safety equipment for the speeds you where going" sorry if i am faster then all the retards who come here to try and play with their toys, for ****s sake i was in a dam is300.

snwbrderphat540

is300? how the hell did you get kicked? at my track if you run sub 13.7 you need a helmet. sub 12's i think you need a cage. and you get a warning first.

hoov100

willow springs is a road coarse SNW..

anything below 10.5 and you will get kicked out at the 1/4..

snwbrderphat540

i dont get it.... i thought we were talking 1/4 mile here. not road coarse

hoov100

im talking about both, did anyone look at the map i posted in personal road courses?

snwbrderphat540

i dont look at things inless im told to or its blatently in the open. lol.

flightforlife07

too bad they just closed our drag strip no more legal racing down here in lancaster...

zstreet86

god damn this **** just pisses me off. one time i was speeding down the street, not even a car in sight. cop pulls me over for illegal street racing. i would have gone to jail if my dad didnt know the cop. i hate prejudiced cops!!!! i have an endless list of stories about this bullsh!t... and they saddest part is i cant do crap about it.

260zturbo

not to be a ******* but you could try doing the speed limit. its obvious they are searching for people. just stay low on the radar.
