That video was a joke. The reporter sounded like as big a moron as the "street racers".
You need better laws. In some parts of Australia you can have your car impounded and crushed for doing exactly what they were doing. That ought to kill the "scene".

Do you guys realize that this thread is like 8 mos old ?

And I'll add that talking about your street racing is against the terms of service you agreed to when you joined this forum... Just ask Temoc.

If you want to race then thats your vibe. But I'm gonna say this one time. Dont come bitching to us when the cops seize your car. Its not a big deal to me if you're in the middle of the country on a 5 mile flat road barren of houses. Its an issue if you're tearing through the city risking not *your* life, but Suzies and Jims and little Kim's life. You think you have complete control of your car, and sure, you do. But you dont have control of little Kim running out into the middle of the road. E36s can stop well, but they dont go 100-0 in 20 feet

wow this thread got revived from no where lol and agreed

I did some stupid stuff when I was 16, but it almost always involved dodging deer at 90mph on 2-lane country roads at 3am, so there was never any other cars around. To this day I still can't believe I didn't have a major accident, because that was seriously stupid of me. Oddly, all that hoonage was done in the crappy Ford Probe I owned at the time (hand-me-down winter car, don't hate :-), and not my '66 GTO, which I never drove fast or raced.

Karl your dateting yourself. You haven't take that
GTO out to Pacific Raceway? DUDE

Sadly, the GTO is in storage at my parents house in another state. I don't have a driveway or garage here in Seattle, and I was living in NYC before I landed here, so it only comes out when I visit home. I gotta get the lady to agree to move to a house with a garage...
