Oh I get the point. There are just sooooo many more dangerous things then street racing and im tired of the media hyping EVERYTHING into evil street racerz.
There is a main strip here in town, pretty central part of town too. Back int he 60's and 70's kids and adults used to meet at the mcdonalds at the start of the road and drag race all the way up it and back down. Cops would occasionally watch from a nearby parking lot. (I hear all this first hand from a guy who used to race his camaro there.) This was all done however at night when not everyone was running around.
What makes it any less dangerous then, as opposed to now?
Im not making excuses or saying that its ok for young kids to jump in their moms automatic maxima, or lame 5 speed contour and run up and down busy streets.
Bottom line, street racing is mostly bad but im tired of the witch hunt against it. especially considering the ones hunting it were probably the ones tearing up and down the streets back in their day!
