Funny. These things happen every day, or every other day. How many people get killed in automobile accidents every year? How many of those people were killed while racing? Probably a pretty close percentage to what the stats were the year before, and the year before that, and so on.

A movie comes out about street racing. Some poeple die in a street race. Hmmmmm People must be racing because theyve seen the movie.

Its just that now something has taken the intrest of the Public eye, media is eager to fuel the fires and controversy by making a story out of anything they can.

I dont know about you all, but I NEVER THOUGHT about street racing till I saw the previews to the fast and furious

Come on, who are they kidding, only the pathetic and guliable public. I've been racing for years, nothings going to make me stop (unless I have a passenger like my girlfriend, or family member), no law, no news coverage, no nothing, not even my girlfriend bickering at me.

If the track was open all the time, I'd probably be racing there instead of on the street. The street is free, its obviously open all day and all night, no rules, and run what you brung.

I have a feeling we are in for a bad storm guys. Guess we are going to have to batten down the hatches and ride it out. THanks to the mindless press and guliable, easily swayed average Joe. I wish people werent so damn closed minded and looked from the other perspective.

A few bad apples ruin it for the whole bushel.

Okay, I have rambled on enough. I'm just extremely p!ssed at the overblown, over exagerating media and the underserved power they irresponisibly use.
