illegal racing is illegal for a reason....ITS DANGEROUS!!! I am a cyclist my Gal is a cyclist we like living....get it?

 

I also used to play with this guy who did that....his licence was revoked for 5 years and the other gut totalled(rolled) his car...he lived but with injuries.

Are you sure you're not the one that hit tyler?

 

i know it wasnt him, it was me!

 

Here in Texas they just increased the penalties for street-racing. If you're convicted once you lose your license for a year. Twice it becomes a class A misdemeanor (which is pretty serious realy and can affect you in other areas). If you're convicted a third time it becomes a felony and now we're talking serious.

edit: Not that losing your license for a year or a class A misdemeanor AREN'T serious!

In California, it's illegal to even watch a street race. Even being present during one is grounds for over $1000 in fines.

Do you ever have anything useful or even positive to post?

On topic,

Yeah, I have a story like this.

So one night 2 years ago, me and a friend were out about 12:30 after a high school football game. He had a sports car, '93 Honda Prelude. We were in a 55 mph zone on an old highway that nobody's ever on that late. So he says, "Want to go fast?" and I say, "yes." So he slams the shift knob into 3rd and gets up to 80. "Faster?" he says. "Yes" I say. So he puts it into 4th and gets up to 105. "Faster?" "Yes" I say. 5th gear, 115. We stay up there for a few seconds and he drops it back down to 60.

Looking back, it was one of the most stupid things I have ever done. If there'd been a car on that road I'd be dead now. After that I vowed not to do stupid things in cars ever again.

 

no. leave me alone.

 

If the 3000GT got the hit, I suppose it could go that way, and if it was a VR-4, those things are hella fast.

 

yeah, that would be one bitchin fast mitsubishi!

i have a few friends that are into the car tuning scene and one of them has a civic SI with the works (NOS and all that stuff) and everyone always talks about how fast he is and he runs like 12 something secs usually*

(they do NOT street race, there is a big time dragstrip in the next town and they go there sometimes for the open nights or whatever)
