Has anyone here actually ever street-raced for money and come out with more than $5-10? I have been in the scene for over 4 years now and have seen ONE money race, and that was between CVD and some bitch-boy who lost and wouldn't pay up cuz he needed gas money...CVD ended up getting a whole $5 out of the deal.
Actually I've raced for money. Not too outragous, but well over $15 or whatever. I've street raced, the only times I've ever done it on a live street we never tried to run or beat a yellow/red light. I usually just race to the next stop light or whatever, just to goof a little bit. The only time we do some serious racing is when the streets are blocked off, ass late at night, and the spectators are either behind the cars, the sides of the cars when they launch, or way down the road to see who won. Out of all the times that I have street raced and watched street racing, no one has been hurt. The only people in harms way would be the racers at the time.
As for the girl, I feel bad for her that she was in the wrong place at the wrong time. And its good to hear that she's ok. But I also strongly agree with what Mike was saying. That could of been a drunk driver or someone just being stupid. I wonder if they still would be trying to leave the scene still? Also, fyi cuz this is sorta bothering me, he photoshopped that pic of his girlfriend. I dunno, that was just irritating me....
