But that's where you're mistaken... when the "moron who actually was racing" comes and posts about his kills or posts a video, it will inspire another "moron" to go try the same thing. It's the influence of street racing that will hurt the evom community. If you want to post street racing **** then by all means go start another forum and allow street racing **** to go on there.

 

I believe racing happens on a RACE track. There are enough bad drivers out there contributing to accidents, higher insurance prices, and public endangerment. I love my evo, but I respect people more than a piece of metal, albeit, a WONDERFUL piece of metal. We don't need to give ourselves a bad name in the eyes of the public when it is so easy to find auto x or a drag strip. Just because we have fast cars doesn't mean we have to prove it at every red light.

 

It's not easy to find an autox or a drag strip, especially not in the winter. And wouldn't talking about how fast we can make our cars make someone more eager to see how fast their car is than some retard posting "I Pwned a civikk with naws man".

 

My bad, I forgot to capitalize Communism, because I'm sure you knew that when communism is capitalized it has another meaning which is "A totalitarian system of government in which a single authoritarian party controls state-owned means of production." Sure could have used Fascism, but thought the usuage of Communism would get my point across more effectively. Anyhow it's not that big of a deal and you knew what the f*ck I meant so you can save your little sarcastic attitude for another day. Also you may want to capitalize the f in Fascism in your post english wiz.

 

Actually capitalizing communism doesn't change the meaning. It's just that most communist states have been totalitarian and oppresive. I don't know why I said that though cause I'm on your side of this argument about posting rules.

 

Yeah and what dream world are you from, look if you don't like it, then don't read it. You don't agree with it, then don't particpate. Still street racing has, does, and will continue to go on if you like or not. Look I'm not actually advocating it, just asking for people to be given a chance to vote on such a subject. Just because you don't like it, doesn't mean your opinion should matter more than anothers. To many it's not that bad, and all in good fun, and while yes there are accidents caused by street racing, the majority of accidents can be attributed to aggressive driving and speeding, and sorry but that goes on all the time. The production of a sports car in my opinion is an advocate of speeding and aggressive driving.

 

Yes it does check the dictionary, anyways it's no big deal. Sticking on topic, the SRT-4 forum recently had a poll on their famous War Stories section. While so many people dissed the forums BS stories and personal insults to one another, the poll overwhelmingly voted in favor of keeping the War Stories. In the end, people just loved it because it was fun. Look I know I'm not the owner of this site, but this forum is called Site Feedback and Suggestions. I'm just expressing my opinion.

 

I'm sick of politically correct as*holes that like to sit back and point the finger! We all know street racing is not legal but just as many others have mentioned, we all drive over the limit now and then even if by 5 mph, it's ILLEGAL. So all of you PERFECT people out there pointing the finger know what you can do with that finger. I have the common sense to NEVER race on a busy road at a time when other people are remotely around and to safe limits. If I wanna go WAY over the limit, I take it to a drag strip or track. But to race to like 60 in a 45 when NO ONE is around is not going to hurt anybody. I will continue to hope for a street racing section, as long as people aren't posting vids. of something entirely reckless.

 

its true that street racing is illegal and kills people but so does alot of things, i dont mean like a street racing section where everyone goes wild and people are goin way over the speed limit, i just want to see how peoples cars run and most people cant do it because there are no tracks but we mod our cars anyways

 

Yes for street racing! Sorry i dont drive like miss daisy is in the passenger seat all the time.....

 

41,821 people were killed in auto accidents in 2000. In 2000, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reported that police listed street racing as a factor in 72 fatal crashes. Does that seem like a big risk to you? It sure as hell dosnt seem like a vert great risk to me.

According to the U.S. National Weather Service, 73 people die from lightning strikes each year and hundreds more suffer life-debilitating injuries.

Statisticly More people die from getting struck by frigging lightning...

 

Damn, you beat me to it, I was looking for stats. like that, if they're accurate, nice find. That's what I'm talking about, people exagerate.

 

i just wanted a section where we can post vids and pics of acceleration contests in a empty road

 

...yeah i wish there was a track with in an hour and a half of me

 

I think the major problem is that many of the members of this board are probably between the ages of 16-24. The older and slightly wiser crowd I am sure can control the urge to race at every redlight but I am sure you remember the old days. I know when I was 17 and got my license for the first time I did not back down to any car. I took many risks and I'm glad I'm alive to say that today.

I think the ban is for protection of the younger crowd. They are the ones who are less aware that life is not endless.
