Default Street Racing

Just saw on the news...another fatal street racing incident. I swear, that must happen once a week..some young person dying from a street racing accident. What are these people thinking? Are they plain stupid? OH, wait..I just remembered..I live in California..yes they are! [&:]

Sad, it seems like people always have something to prove.

i consider it to be natural selection. its not like they were hit head on by a drunk driver. they were taking their lives into their own hands, hopefully, there were no by standars, but when a street racer dies, it is simply fate weeding out the bad racers.

THis has been going on since younger people could afford cars. Don't believe me, ask your parents. I saw on the NHRA Today that they are doing a more aggressive program to reach kids that are street racing and getting them interested in coming to the track. I can't recall the name of the program, but you can probably find it at http://www.nhra.com

All we can do is try and be safe and make good decisions about where and when to run somebody. Be safe.

No comment. We all street race but sometimes it goes to far. Sure I'll beat someone at the light but I'm not going to go ***** out and top out my car. A little fun is okay but if you really feel a need for speed take it to the track, okay guys?
