![]() ![]() On the whole issue, I'm kinda split on it. Actually, I don't blame politics...I blame THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS. Before you scoff, hear me out--- At street races I was 99% the spectator, and before that damned movie came out, most of the people down at the "spot" were peeps who TRULY loved cars, and came up there to actually race and talk to other car lovers, not do burnouts in the parking lot and endanger others and their vehicles. I went for about 1.5-2 years. The first time I went to the same spot AFTER FATF came out, it was a freekin traffic jam from the highway down to the spot...hundreds and hundreds of cars. When I finally got there, I just turned around and went home...burnouts, people pulling e-brakes 5 feet away from humans and other cars, it was a sickening site. Typical kids that saw the movie, then took their stock Civics and Integras down to "be cool" like Vin Diesel. -I'm getting to the point, I promise- One thing I always did notice (before FATF), was that when the cops came, the posers and ricers always left pretty quick, leaving only the people that came down to really enjoy cars and stuff...we'd be there until like 4-5am, and the losers had been long gone, and the cops too (no one doing hot ****). I can't wait until the goddamn ricer trend and the crap it brings with it is gone, and then the TRUE racers that can have fun and be smart about it can come back out to play, then the cops will go away, and the political agenda will quiet down as well. I just wonder how long it will take ![]() Also, I DO NOT believe that its only the racers that are risking their lives. Roads ARE public, even though picking deserted roads does minimize the chances of a random car happenin' along. |
