hey silver man, ya sound like a young kid, and i 'm not that much older than ya, but i've been around and Friedchicken is right, when you
think theres no one around, you need to be on the full alert, because your mind wants to be lulled into a false sense of security, and when that happens, your not 100% concentrating an, when ya not 100% concentrating is when **** happens. there are too many things you need to learn before successfully street racin or any kind of racing: psychology, vehicle mechanics, physics, etc. and all of this comes through practice, and research... doin ya homework before walkin into any fight. its what separates you from those Dumasses in highschool in their brand new sports cars who smashed em up the day after the got em...driver ability, knowing yourself and the vehicle's limits. i've personally known a few friends of that've wrecked their rides, lives, or other peoples lives, through immaturity and street racing. jus las month a girl in my hometown, was killed goin home after cheerleading practice by this dumass in a pickup an this other dumass that were racing during rush hour traffic. long story short, the pickup lost control, plowed the median, and slammmed into her car goin in the opposite direction at 80 mph...scary ****. i've raced before and i never really got a thrill out of it. i might be too paranoid about my car, but maybe thats because i worked long and hard to get her, maintain her, and personally, don't want to see anything happen to her. But after seein that nightmare, i vowed I would never put innocent people in harms way ever again. racing is a sport in my opinion and by that rationale should be governed by a set of rules be that NMRA, NHRA sanctioned or everyday common sense.
Its more fun, challenging, and its definetely much safer for everybody.
btw, I think the acura was just a piece and he didn't know how to drive, '00 lx's come stock with bout 190 horses.
