although i fully agree with you on the street racing is not good for us as a whole... i have to prioritize my issues in a order of how many deaths per year they cause...

1. drunk driving... how is this still a popular activity ? jeez i had two people i know killed by these morons in the past 3 years but it never made any headlines... i guess its old news...

2. SUV driving err steering morons... get the hell off the phone, if i have one more SUV pointed at me i have to dodge i am getting a RPG to launch at them...

3. poorly maintained crap buckets on the road... no brakes and bald tires oooh yea, don't have to be flooring it to run into me, they just can't stop...

4. street racers... eh so they kill a few dozen people per year but dam does the media love their story cause it gets peoples blood boiling... compare the number of deaths from this to the three above and you'd be shocked... what's the difference between them ? all resulted from ignorance... can't tell me someone being ignorant enough to street race is worse than someone ignorant enough not to get tires and brakes cause they're cheap bastards or too busy with their cell phone in their rolling house...

not to cause a argument about this... but the numbers don't lie... so i think we have bigger issues to fry in this country when it comes to our roads... but since its so popular, why wouldn't we fry the street racers (do they even exist anymore, i swear in my area it has died down seriously, thankfully so) ... hell i haven't had more than 3 or 4 people attempt to race me since i got the car (i did not bite... why ruin my comfort hah)...
