The Pros & Cons Of Street Racing POLL - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

This is a touchy subject to many people. I listed an equal amount of pros/cons for street racing.

Whats your thoughts?

PROS:

1. It's convienent
2. It's free to race
3. You could win money
4. If its anything like the movies there could be some hot skanky girl at the starting line flagging the race with an article of clothing.

CONS:

1. Get arrested/Fined
2. Get killed or kill someone else
3. Get your car confiscated and/or crushed.
4. At the track you get a cool little time slip which you don't get on the street.

I ADDED A COOL POLL TOO

In my opinion, it isn't worth it. I got caught for it like 5 years ago, lost my license for 6 months, pay a lot in fines, and was unable to work.

CleanNeon98 · 07-18-2009, 07:51 PM

I'm not for it, I'm not against it. People know the concequences going into it, so whatever happens to them is their own fault, all of that "oh a deer ran out in front of me at 1000 feet and that's why I'm paralyzed from the waist down" is bull****.

civichx97 · 07-18-2009, 11:35 PM

yeah the drivers know the consequences and take the chance but what about the innocent people in the other car they hit head on? or the other people in their car? or a pedestrian? if you wanna race, take it to the track. period.

Agreed. This thread suffers from a severe case of mild retardation.
