Why i hate street racing

[TenSpeed]

Sorry for the loss of your friend. The circumstances may never be known, but a life was lost, and that is never good

I highly doubt that.

That was my exact thought when I read his post, too.
Three weeks from now he will have forgotten all about saying that.

You guys took the words right out of my mouth. I guess we will see what happens with nolaboy and his street racing.

It wasn't just about just this one story alone. Like I said someone was just killed out here also. The task force is another reason. I have gotten too many signs this past weekend.

Houston is the mecca of street racing. I'm wondering what's going to happen with tx2k this year since the new task force was formed. But to be honest I don't care what you think I'm done.

racing to over 225 mph? what were they racing in? salt flat cars?

I've heard that the fastest speeding ticket issued in Texas was at 242 MPH in a 75 MPH zone in a Koenigsegg. Anything possible.

UGR TT Lambos come to mind

 

[nola504boy]

Yeah it's a lot of tt lambos here.

200 is the new 150.

Not trying to hijack the op thread but this just happend last week here. That's why I post the link with the street racing task force now. I don't know how fast he was going but he was riding. They're about to really start cracking down on everyone.

Sucks for you OP, may Greg RIP. San Antonio's track just went bankrupt, I can imagine the racing scene here will get full retard come spring...

 

[char259]

Nola. Guessing the result of that was probably not good

The guy with the hellcat was arrested. Don't know about everyone else.

Damn he did it again!

Thats why I don't street race.....safety debate aside, I am too old for that shit with the poopoo. One bowel movement a day is enough for me.

plus the cost is insane, expensive ass tickets and impound fees dl suspensions ect it aint worth it when that money could be put towards mods instead and track time

Yup. Exactly why I have no desire to crank up the boost and power on my car. As you know even the best prepped tracks sometimes can't keep a car glued down let alone the crappy public streets. No way I'm jeopardizing my career, my future, my life or anyone else's life because of some idiot running their mouth wanting to race on the streets. I've got a lot more to lose than they do. Guaranteed.

 

[lostsoul]

I dont know about your guys area, but racetracks are hard to find and when you do go out of the way to "take it to the track" the poopoo is there to F with you $$$

as bad as cali roads are racing on them is crazy. Just wish there would be more little places too race and not have a swam of police pulling people over for little shit.

Up here in Idaho the only "racing" on this side of the state is they close a giant parking lot and do 100ft drags. Its super fun to watch................... not
