Street "racing" does not require 120+ MPH speeds on public roads.

P.S. That spell check button next to the submit button really works.

Oh, so your saying that only Some risky road driving is ok, but not all...Yea...Right...Good stuff. Im not to into medicine, but im pretty sure u hit a guy walking down the street at 80 MPH, he aint gonna get up and shake it off. These people know the Risks they are taking, as well as the risk there putting others in. Your to tell me since you DONT do 120 its ok...Ha... I could spell wrong all day, and never look as stupid as you do saying that.

JUST TO CHIME IN THE S2000 LOSES 88 POUNDS OF DOWN FORCE AT 110 MILES PER HOUR, THIS IS WHEN THE SO CALLED "RICER WING" COMES INTO EFFECT, IF USED CORRECTLY A SPOILER LIKE THE MUGEN ONE COULD DRAMATICALLY STABLIZE THE CAR AT HIGHER SPEEDS. A FINE EXAMPLE OF THIS WOULD BE THE PORSCHE RECTRACTABLE SPOILERS.

TO BOOT I HAPPEN TO READ DOUG HASIHI NSX FILES ( SORRY IF I SPELLED NAME WORNG.) AND I CAME ACROSS THE SAME FACT. ANYWAYS AS IT TURNS OUT SOMEONE MADE A HOME MADE SPOILER AND WITH THE IMPLMENTATION OF IT TOOK THE BEST TIME OF THE DAY AT WILLOW.

ALSO DO YOU HAVE A SPOILER?

AS FOR STREET RACING CHECK OUT THE PRYMAID OF SPEED.
STREET RACING IS AT THE BOTTOM THEN FREEWAY RACING, THEN QUATER MILE RACING, AUTO X-ER'S AND THEN THE TOP, WHEEL TO WHEEL RACING LIKE F1. IT GOES FROM THE LEAST SKILL TO THE MOST.

I think the point that Steve was trying to make is that there is a difference between fast and reckless. Once you're at the point that you are no longer solidly in control of your vehicle, you are taking chances with your life and more importantly the life of an innocent bystander.

My advice for what it's worth: Learn the limits of you and your car at the track and stay well within them on the street.

Dont go off on someone calling them irresponsible.
It is irresponsible. You can drive however you want on public roads, honestly I don't ing care.

I (and lots of other folks here) save such antics for the track.

-Steve (who reminds you again that the spell check button is the one just to the right of the submit button).
