well, if you use your head, instead of your aaa-sssss, you're not gonna be runnin anyone, in a construction zone, on the highway.

I don't think it's funny at all, but i'd have no problem laughing at an idiot that comes on here and says "man, this is dumb", then hops in his car and races the taurus on 95.

that isnt true about nice paint with engine swaps! my friend has a crx and its primered and he has a k20a in it and runs 12's i think there is something called a "sleeper"

a sleeper? paint your body kit before you put it on.

If you can't afford paint, what are you gonna do when you have minor engine troubles?

Why would someone "slam" on their brakes @ over 100mph to slow for the construction site...

So, did they report on how many more people died in non street racing accidents that day? I love when the media blows things out of proportion. They were racing, and one guy made a mistake. This isn't news.

i have no remorse for someone dying from doing something totally stupid. the article said he was thrown from the car, so he probably wasnt wearing a seat belt . racing is bad enough but racing in or tawards a construction zone at more than 100mph with no seat belt is just dumb. i believe it is called thinning the heard. natures(or whatever u wanna call it) way of weeding out the weak.
i dont think it was an evo or sti. because by the time the civic got up to 100 the evo or sti would be long gone. no jockying for position between an evo and a civic.


p.s. sorry if i affended anyone. thats just my .10 cents

clearly they don't know cars... first its an isuzu sti, then a mitsubishi, and now a subaru sti. The news article said the black car was a honda accord.. even though the pictures clearly show a civic?
A) if it was an evo why would he cut in front of the civic... the evo would be long gone.
B) why did the civic slam on his brakes at over 100mph. who does that?

also I definately always have my seatbelt in hand before my door is shut.

edit: even the picture on the latest article of the Subaru Impreza STI says "picture taken from the isuzu website" How can all these news articles be so wrong.

because the people that right the news are idiots. they are not giving a Sh1p about giving u the news they only care about beating the other news stations to the punch so they get the ratings and in turn sell more advertising in turn making more money. its reality entertainment nowadays not informing u. they just want u to watch. knowmatter how they do it, just watch the teasers for the news they are like movie trailer tryin to scare u into watchin.
