![]() Is it just me, or does this get harder to believe all the time? There is no way something like that could fly out here. Even in the best places to street race in LA, this kind of discussion would take so darn long that the cops would be there and gone before anybody got to race.
I know there are places around the country that are a whole lot different, but this stuff seems a little too out there. I'm impressed that you can keep your story straight every time you tell it, but I have to call BS. Who tries to bracket race on the street? I want to see some proof of this malarky taking place. Maybe then it will make more sense.

![]() How come if you have been racing for 20 years, which would make you 14 when you started racing, you don't have a faster car. If you like to race so much and have so much experience in it, it seems you would have a faster car. You wouldn't have to give people 25 car lengths.

![]() Uhm here.....More than 90% of the articles I have seen that mention Street Racing say that East Coast Street Racing is Far More Serious than West Coast..... So show me some freagin proof of this please.
I am not going to take your word. Its like me saying the same thing More than 90% of the articles I have seen that mention street racing say that west coast street racing is far more serious than east coast. LOL and how did you come to the conclusion that there was 90% did you calculate them out? and also what about central US are they more serious or are they just medium serious? ![]() Duece is a very smart guy ![]() |

![]() STreet racing has got to be the most serious here in north eastern Colorado. We get out the tractors and line em up, I usually give people a couple tractor lengths cause I got a 100 shot on my Ferguson Plessy. It's just an inline 6, but its got mad low end power. We usually just race for cattle or sometimes if its serious horses. j/k
![]() To me sreet racing is about fun and seeing how your car compares to others. Not money, but thats just me and everyone is entitled to their own brand of racing.

![]() my brother had a 94 probe gt. never ran it in the quarter, but i ran it on the highway on the way to my junior prom. car had chip, exhaust, and filter, and topped out around 140. so they are mildly fast.

![]() I thought you would give up by now. I am glad I am in error. Ok 1 at a time, here we go.1..Use a Handi wipe with a little alcohol to clean the KB.(I was serious about what I typed,however)2.. We are usually so far out in the woods we have plenty of time to do what we wish. We were there for 6 hours 1 night.3.. Makes Sense,I am speaking of Money races,Why win a race for free? Why make him think you are fast? That's the idea,"Make him think you are slow" Then get him

![]() Geez...you should write a "how to" street racing book dude. Not that anyone would read it with any ounce of sincerity but at least it would give you something to do for awhile. Maybe start your own club even. Just think about it, you could all sit around and dream up these wonderful ideas and try them on each other to see which works best. Once perfected you could spread havoc all over the land with street racing victories, become millionares, and write more books.
I usually don't get involved in this kind of stuff but this is ridiculous.

![]() I have been 100% honest in everything I have typed.I am in fact known as kinda the "Race Guru". I enlighten people on what to Get and Give when Racing.Be that as it may. I have simply responded to posts that were directed my way. I was asked by more than 1 person not to shorten words, so I type it all out and it gets a bit long.I NEVER have used the quote option because that takes up to much space.I still don't understand the big deal. So what if the VAST majority of Races I race and that are raced in this area, are NOT Heads-up?Not my Fault.

![]() Wow this is getting a little silly. Say does anyone remember what the thread title was. LOL 93 probe gt how fast. Might need to change that too. How to write a street racing novel. I think everyone is entitled to there own opinion. You can race what ever way you want to. And it doesnt mean that everyone else has to agree with it either.

![]() Thank You. You are 100% correct. Um? I think maybe the Probe messed everything up as it went by at 140.
