Street racing. Yes or no
 
After just being flamed for my highway adventures I would like to know the general feeling of the board about racing on public streets and highways.

We all know the consiquences, and crap... and how unsafe it is. But shit, i still do it, no reason why, its pretty stupid shit, but its fun. and i cant afford driving 100miles and paying 50 bucks or something to go to the strip every weekend, especially considering all the fucker hicks there are there. But hey, you build me a local track, that is cheap, and ill race there. otherwise, stfu!

but yea, its all good

VagaBond-X November-11th-2002 06:54 PM

hell yeah.....i street race....and its for the same reasons above....more my financial situation
even tho all the speeding tickets don't help it.

but its dumb, careless...blah...blah..I know all this...and i know how stupid it is for doing it....but hey.....it is FUN!!!....and i wouldn't give it up....currently i'm racing my pro, and a friends 93 Probe GT (he can't race with a 5 spd...so i do it for him:D)

and when i get my RX-7...probably an FC first....damn I'll be racing all the time....and then when the FD comes along....sheet...I'll be modding the hell outta it...and making it a street monster

I hope you never find hurting people, shooting people, stabbing people, running over people fun one day. =/

(of course I'm talking about real life.. vid games are a different story =) )

protegeDX November-11th-2002 07:48 PM

i havent raced in a long time. when i did, i didnt really go over 65mph and i didnt do it at like in a 25 zone. i dont race no more cuz i dont wanna mess up my car or get caught. its not worth it. plus my car is slow as balls, automatic DX. haha there are better things to do. take it to the track or autocross

onehawaiian November-11th-2002 07:58 PM

i voted "no". but dammit, sometimes ppl just gotta learn. i do not condone it in any way, nor do i make a practice/habit of it. in fact, it's not even about racing to me. it's all about "who's da man". i don't care if you pull up in a lamborghini, u better know how to drive it.

but, no, no street racing . (that is my official statement) :D

holy crap this is fucked up tho

Well this is my opinion:


Racing up to 100 km/h (or 60 mph) is fine, but if you're racing past that point, you're an idiot that needs to be taken off the road and have their licenses suspended. I am talking about city roads, not highways......

VagaBond-X November-11th-2002 09:28 PM

never race on a street full of pedestrians...or even if the road has a chance of having a pedestrian walk out onto the road...then no racing there

main city roads i have rarely raced on....most of the time its deserted back roads....

and if i ever kill someone racing...I'll shoot myself :D

hmmm :rolleyes: my previous sentence...wasn't meant for an easy way out of the consequences...I'm just saying how bad i'd feel if i ever kill myself...thats why i never race on roads with pedestrians....or roads with 3 or more cars in sight

maybe about 6 months ago i would be different...but i've kinda grown up since then..and won't just race anywhere <--- but it seems i haven't totally grown up...cuz i still race:D

MarkSpark November-11th-2002 09:29 PM

There's nothing more pathetic than seeing a honda owner attempt to race me. Screw racing economy cars.

Identity_X November-11th-2002 09:37 PM

I am against regular street racing, but highway is ok as long as one does not hit speeds of 120mph when there is still cars in every lane!
