It is very sad but look at those cars. Like Hammer said those are not built to race they are commuter cars. Street Racing if done right is no more risky than track racing IMO. Done right to me would be making sure the streets are clear and having spotters etc.
Unfortuanetely not many people do it this way (especially ricers) That is why San Diego passed a law saying its a misdeamenor to even be a SPECTATOR at a street race.
I wish all the media and city council people would get thier heads out of thier a**es and realize the main problem is san diego does not have a drag strip. Sure we have qualcomm which is only an 1/8 mile but its a parking lot turned into a drag strip so traction SUCKS.
Also Carlsbad is good distance for a weekend trip every now and then but too far away to the liking of most people (especially young people) that like to go after work or whatever.
These are all just my opinions though.
