Pointless discussion.
How many people here smoke?
How many people here speed?
How many people here drive drunk?
How many people here do drugs?

Point proven. Im out.
Point proven? What point? The only thing that is pointless is your last post.

BTW I'm mainly refering to the groups of people and cars that get together and race.

Lightining- You have never street raced or met at that type of meet? If you havent cool, but if you have then you were a former dumbass right? No offense, just thinking this all through.
I was at Redrock once like 7 years ago, but I quickly realised how many morons were there, and the potential of their stupid actions.

I’d say the spectators got off easy. Theres states where just being there is a misdemeanor and your car is impounded. Its not a surprise that the cops came either, an illegal assembly of 100+ people on private property?

This is a topic that will always be a huge debate. No one is going to change their minds and people will stay pissed. Contribute to it with that in mind. My input is this. Anything can be done decently and obviously this isn't it. People have been doing it in small organized groups for more years than most here have been alive. It works out fine and everyone goes home. This form of unorganized racing will keep attracting police and being a dangerous situation for spectators, racers etc as long as it goes. People will either learn and get smarter or lose in a lot of ways.
The attitudes of some of the people posting on this thread are just ignorant. Claiming a lot of intelligence and innocense when in reality I know much better. I have ridden with a few of those posting the big opinions in this thread and they are all guilty of being some of the worst drivers ever as far as the law goes. Rubber band stops, speeding everywhere way above the limit and just in general acting like an idiot behind the wheel.
And if he hasn't told you enough already, Eric M is the smartest person on the planet. I know this because he always has such clever opinions of everything and is or was part of MENSA. Wow, the blessing he bestows on us just by being in his presence. And of course nothing I mentioned about driving was related to him :slap:

This is all I have to say on this post, you were the one that got the arguement started.
And like Lightning said, we were former dumbasses but saw the error of our ways. In the future, if we come straight out and call YOU a dumbass, then get an argument going. Otherwise, keep it in your pants. If you feel offended by his comment, maybe you should think about why he said it in the first place. You are lobbying for street racing and illegal activities such as street racing by taking a stand against those who oppose it.
Opinions are like a$$#@!&s, everyone has one and you may not agree with everyone elses.
And BTW, people that do the things that you listed are dumbasses as well for openly doing those things.

I guess I forgot my excessive ~10 MPH over the speed limit driving compares me to people racing 100+ MPH down public roads in groups of 50-100+ people, what was I thinking?
Besides, I've been driving that way for close to 15 years and never been close to getting into an accident, so I guess I must be doing something right.

normal is only that which you surround yourself with. if you are brought up around races and go to them alot, then it wont seem like that big of deal. same goes with speeding. if someone does it for a long time, it becomes natural to them but to others its still wrong. its all in perspective. i dont agree with going to street races. if it was only you guys at risk for breaking the law, then it would be different, but there are people on their way home, to work, to see family, along with millions of other things that are more important than getting a rush by going fast and breaking the law. putting innocent people at risk is the only think i cant overlook in this situation really...
