Unit, I have no objections with your points of view- and some are valid given your experience with the law/government. I am not trying to win you over to the dark side or change your mind. I was just trying to enlighten you to other points of view and circumstances.

However give me the right to my own opinions as we do everyone else without the need to attack me personally and assuming I have no idea what I am talking about. If anything, I am the ideal person to hold this type of discussion with, as I have strong interests into both sides of the argument- course you wouldn't have known that before you opened our mouth.

For the record, I was not trying to manipulate your point on the 100k car. I only took it as I read it. You should be more clear next time. I'm sure I'm not the only one that didn't see the deep meaning of your post.

And calling me ricer and that I don't deserve my ride and the rest of that immature crap you spewed? I hope that made you feel better. Nothing better to defend a poor position than to shift to insults and attack my integrety- which has no bearing on entering my own point of view against yours.

I didn't elect the officials in Minnesota, and I am all for *reasonable* laws being passed. But when you compare what is happening to the recreational market in your corner of the world to every faced of governed life here on earth, I think you need a little wake up call. There are extemes to everything and you have quoted some very valid ones. However, my position on street racing is firm and for reason. Just wait till you have someone close to you DIE from carless actions of others that would not have happened if the proper care was taken in the first place.

Ask yourself a simple question- should street racing be leagal? Yes or No. No in-between or conditions.

Should people be allowed to street race and risk personal injury or property damage?

If it's no, then the government may pursue what means they feel necessary.

If yes, then you would have more crowded meets and races with newbies and pros alike- (and we all know newbies drive perfect, right?) and many more fatalities.

Don't like the laws in place? Or feel the policing agencies are out for blood? I have a simple solution.

MOVE. Minnesota is only 1 state. There are many more to choose from.

Happy thoughts, Unit, Happy thoughts!
