I agree^ just be careful with the cones! Some places use light=weight cones but some that use heavy rubber ones..... NOT SO GOOD. I suggest if you are going to autox or track...have another front bumper (prefferably used) for the first couple of times while you are learning.

Besides street racing being illegal and dangerous to participants and innocent bystanders, would any of us want to provide John Bunnell with an opportunity for even more air time?

Old enough to have run my own business and built a few hundred cars for the last 10 years. I've built and driven plenty of 4 and 500hp "sports cars" and none were domestic. How about you? Troll attempt rejected, go talk **** to someone else son.

Its not about liability or bullshitting or anything besides this

16-year-old girl critically injured in street race

The Times, Aug 30, 2010, Updated 3.9 hours ago

An unlawful street race ended in a crash Friday night, and a 16-year-old girl was transported to Oregon Health & Science University with critical injuries.

At about 10:20 p.m. on August 28, two cars driven by teenage boys were racing on SW Cipole Rd near Tualatin when one of them lost control and crashed. Cipole Road is an unlit rural road with dips and narrow gravel or dirt shoulders.

The 1993 Honda Civic, driven by 18-year-old Cameron Rathammer of Lake Oswego, slid sideways into a very large tree. It impacted where the 16-year-old girl, identified in the media as Ciara Nestlen, was sitting on the passenger's side. The girl was knocked unconscious and trapped in the car. A Tualatin Valley Fire & Rescue crew was able to remove her from the car by cutting off the car's roof. She was then transferred by ambulance to OHSU.

Rathammer's brother was riding in the back seat and received non-life threatening injuries. The driver of the other car has been identified as 17-year-old Cameron Behbahany of Lake Oswego. In addition to those driving and riding in the cars involved in the race, there were a number of teenagers lining the street who observed the crash. The teens told police that the race was spontaneous, but a report from the Washington County Sheriff's Department states, "Deputies doubt that all of them had gathered on a dark road in rural Washington County by coincidence."

The investigation is being conducted by the Washington County Crash Reconstruction Team (CART).
kids/people die or get screwed up for the rest of their lives. we dont allow posts about street racing because we want to discourage the idea thats its a good/fun thing and encourage people to take it to the track.
