sounds pretty highly modified.
I love sarcasm...Most of my money is in the brakes and suspension
the above post is one of the first things you say on stangnet? come on and threaten everyone like this is some kind of organized street racing gang?
Maybe I should have clarified...most of the time we deal with large groups, 20 plus cars and 80 +/- spectators and they are very organized, gang might be a harsh label, but it meets the legal defenition...we have several tracks within 30 mins to a 2 hrs drive, depending on your location, yet our knuckleheads insist on playing in the street...in the summer this place was off the hook...the only thing that worked was zero tolerance.
I also will not say that street racing is ok because its most definitely NOT. But what are those of us without a nearby track supposed to do? i trailer or drive my car 100+ miles one way to race 3 times. that sucks, there is no track close to me
Several of our more seasoned racers got together and set up a track of their own...an 1/8th mile on a farm road with the blessing of the county and State Patrol, all it took was a little imagination and some hard work..it's all in what your willing to do for your hobby.
...because here in Connecticut (the countries richest state) the state's policy is much like yours, instead of offering an alternative, they would rather punish people and make money off ruining their lives. they
We like to think we're saving lives..it's tough to quantify the results of a proactive policy, but we have seen a drop off in street racing in the last couple of years...
...wont even allow donald trump or casino's the rights to build a race track here. but every weekend they bust hundreds of kids for racing, and the next weekend they just come right back. in my humble opinion the states should lay off some of the police force and focus the money they save on giving us legitimate, SAFE places to race.
Well, maybe you could ask Obama for some of that stimulus money...he seems to want to give it out for stuff far less deserving than what you mention...yeah, I know....when pigs fly, right? Sorry like I said, I like sarcasm too.
BTW...I've posted here several times, a long time ago under a different username. I just came back when I bought the '05.
