OH shit

only real street racers with 8-10 second cars can get away with shit like that. they have the money, the power to escape, and everything they do is planned. **** anyone who thinks theyre bad *** and try to race everything they see on the road.

has nothing to do with money and has EVERYTHING to do with location, time, and being planned out. I had around 250 street races before retiring and never got close to getting caught because the cops were never around.

The "real" races go down in the wee hours of the morning in secluded areas with a few spotter cars and that's it. You can get a race off and be gone in under 2 minutes.

Ricers and other amatuers ruined the sport, so I got out of it, but have no regrets...

Granted, this is an exception.
But at this point it's more of an outlet for amusement...it's no coincidence the members of the forums I actually read are 15-20 years older than here.

Ah

Why do street races when you can just go to a track, have better traction, be safer, and no possibility of a ticket?

I guess if it is all planned on a smooth street and nobody is around it is kinda safe.

oh well
