Default Racing on the news

What up guys, I just wanted to let you guys know that on the news about how cops are trying to bust down on street racing. They are going to start writing citations for watching as well. I'm afraid that our saturday GTG's will be mistaken for street racing or whatnot. They told the story from westhimer, so we need to be careful.

i dunno, maybe...i mean we really aren't supposed to be standing around there anyways. I mean security guard has to tell us everytime to disperse (feel sorry for him by the way, must get tired of the shit). The cops could easily say we are trying to pick up por set up races...which kinda seems like what is happening anyways.

they busted the 249 meet tonight.. we had starbucks in hand and they backed off..

cop was like 'we don't want ya'll congrigating before racing' ok so they push all these kids that would otherwise just be hanging out.. to go out on the street and race.. of coarse at everyone of these meets are the darwin award contestants doing burnouts and dounuts in hopes of impressing everyone.. *cough*mark*cough usually either getting the damn meet busted or wrecking into some parked car

House Bill 1326 by Rep. Trey Martinez Fischer, D-San Antonio, would stiffen penalties for illegal street racing, increasing the offense from a Class C to a Class B misdemeanor.
