Street racing
Five pages seemingly supportive of street racing. What's wrong with this picture. I guess those of youth and those who want to do their "own thing" will bray "its our right". Hopefully time and maturity will set in. In the big scheme of things none of this is really important, in fact it is downright irresponsible as it places at risk innocent bystanders, whether of physical proximity or those not involved, whose insurance rates will increase because of the selfish wishes of a few immature drivers who wish to boast that they "best" another. Sick and selfish in the true meaning of the words.

they were not street racing, they found an abandoned stretch of road and drove at speed slower than the speed of traffic on most interstates. it isn't as if they drove through a school yard

NGG, i remember you flaming me in my thread. Are you like 60 years old or something? Do you normally speak like that Or are you trying to act like a grammar professor? His empty road is like a track. He said he had a car blocking the only entrance and he should be familiar with the roads since it's his home area. It's more likely that people racing on the track will hit something or someone than lextasy and his buddy.

And to you Igofast, I am not a grammer professor, just someone who was educated to express himself articulately so there is little chance of miscommunication. You are however, directionally correct on your guess as to my age. I am actually 65, a proud owner of an IS350, other past high performance cars and the victim of youthful indescretion of street racing (with scars to prove it). Additionally, I suspect that your stated New Year's resolutions will prove temporary at best. Whatever you do, stay safe......you seem to have a good sense of humor.

Oh how easy it is to wind you of youth up. My comments were addressed to street racing in general, even though this thread referenced a "controlled" public road. That in itself is selfish...appropriating public property for private use..ah well just another proof of the thoughtlessness of the participants.

If my hunch is correct, the topic is irrelevant. I know the type; some people just love to judge. Deep down, they don't want to...but they cannot help it. It is a neurotic addiction.
My thoughts about street racing aside, I am also glad that it was conducted in as safe a manner as possible.
