man, if i saw you guys racing, i'd jump in too, so you're not gonna get any flamage from me... 😛 but check out this vid... it'd be sick to run with them!! although most cars would prob'ly get toasted

warning for 56kers - it's a 70 meg file, but if you're not on 56k, pick it up... it's a good vid.

Wehh wehh wehh street racing is dangerous wahh wahh wahh. You know what? No one is going to plow into the back of your car street racing because no one raced when there are cars in front of them.

Do all of you complaining about street racing obey the speed limits? Driving 100mph is no less dangerous than street racing.

It was replaced with an ACT stage 2 clutch last November. He didn't really drop it either, more of a slip, but still, it severely limits the clutch life 😛

The GTP runs a 13.8 @ the track... the Civic hasn't gone yet with the turbo on, so we'll know later this year. He complained after the race about not having traction and getting jumped on the 2nd honk. He always has an excuse

Otherwise, and we tell him this everytime, he needs how to drive his car better. If he spent half as much time learning to drive his car as he did complaining about getting his ass kicked, it would have been a better race.

please tell me you're joking. there's a big difference between a steady 100mph on the open road, and 100 mph right next to 2 or 3 other people who are also busy paying more attention to how they are doing than what's on the road in front of them. not only that, you and the people next to you are already proved to be morons because you're street racing, whereas at least on the open road, if you came across someone there might still be a chance that they're not morons.

I know... the Civic driver wanted it

Didn't matter, he still got owned. 🙂

I'm not advocating that godmare shoot you for bumping him racing. However, until you've seen people die from injuries sustained in an auto-accident (gasp! it does happen), maybe you won't understand why he wants to.

It's not like the civic is designed to race anyway. I can't tell you how fun it was to watch two honda's go at it trying to beat each other to a 17sec ET. So I don't sound prejudiced against imports, there was a pair of 1996 pontiacs frequenting the track as well. Equally exciting.

Also, you should SERIOUSLY consider posting documentation of illegal activity with the license plates hangin out there.

Stick to the track, and get off the freakin roads before you kill yourself, or more importantly someone else.

Nope, that download only supports 56k modems.

There wasn't anyone else around them. It was an open road essentially. If anyone had died it would have been them.

So they got lucky it was empty that time. I doubt that any street racer clears the road ahead before racing. I also saw them brake hard just before another car in the first vid.

"About 40,000 persons are killed and 3.2 million are injured in automobile accidents every year. This averages out to about 110 killed and about 8,800 injured every day."

I'm scared as it is to be out on the roads. No need to make it worse.

And did you watch the 2nd video? People think that's cool?
