cali invented custom cars drag racing drive in restraunts and custom cars. but we as teens always tried to find a safe place to race and most of the time you put up the pink slip to your car and than came drag strips long beach,fontana,sanfernando,riverside orange county and others and than this all disappeared it’s sad,but the rush one gets racing is second only to sex and even though i’m alot older than most i have numerous cars that look relatively stock but has serious horsepower it’s hard for me to resist even today when some kid roles up next to and checks out this old man driving an 02 camero an starts revving his eng and i just look away time the light and that LS3 600HP eng comes alive (C YA ) you all are car guys but try to pick your spots and I know in LA its diffi cult and by the way I feel that if your going to crush a car start with the drunk drivers they kill and mame more people than these kids do but hey if they passed that madd would be out business! race safe kids. FAST= FIND A SAFE TIME……………..

I completely agree with you I hate seeing these works of art (cars) being crushed. I have toyota supra and I would run any day before I would let a pig catch me and crush my ride. I have oer 40,000 in aftermarket parts, it would kill me. The day my car is crushed is the day I go to my safe and take out my m16a4a1 and get revenge.

I just got busted for street racing 4 nights ago in my 70 chevelle (no rice) racing a 69 chevelle we both got cought the cop got us when we were both just off the line. They say ther going to crush both cars. we were on a dead street in industial buildings I understand we did something stupid and it wasnt the safest thing to do but please dont crush 2 american clasics, I’d rather mine be sold at least she can still live and have a good life. Isn’t this cruel and unusual punishment? like I would think so if any one knows please reply to me?

I wonder if a motorcycle event leaving San Deigo California for a location in Eastern Canada that had a payout for the winner of 1 million dollars with 1000 Motorcycle is the event would be considered a race.

Ok, yes street racing is stupid, but i am a hypocrite for saying so cuz i do it myself. there is a fine line between crazy driving, and just plain out stupid. street racing should only be done by the gear heads that spend hours upon hours in the garage under the hood of that car..the way i see it if you spend that much time working on that car…more then likly you know how to drive it. i street race my car…its a gearhead thing…Law enforcement taking peoples vehicles for racing and doing with them as they please (crushing) is wrong and im sorry to say that if someone takes my car and thinks they are going to destroy it might want to rethink about what they are about to do and all the gearheads would agree with me when i say that…i give my condolences to those who have lost a loved one to a street racer. but also think about the street racers that have lost their lives doing what they love…its all the same…dont crush our cars we spend so much time on them that we become attached believe it or not

Just got a racing ticket in Southern California, racing a 09 civic Si Coupe in my 2010 Mazdaspeed 3. This is my first time getting caught after doing this for 7 years. Cop did not impound the car, but I do have a court date this December, any thoughts on what the charges would be? My record is clean. Please email me if you know anything. kazaryan_alen@yahoo.com Thank you. Oh, and FUCK the POLICE. Thank you.

yes this is true that alot of guys and or girls once saw those moves thought that there car could keep up or out do old schools. imports are nice cars dont get me wrong, I myself drive one and race it but i know for a fact my 98 trans am built from the ground up wont just walk away form a car it will leave them wishing they would of never met me at the light and to the Person who has the 98 honda Civic i know that the ones i race is only pulling about 450 to 500 but they are putting money right back in it because of the s*** they use and they still cant pass me. No i am not trying to say my car is the best in the World in fact i know its not because i know there are always bigger and better ones out there like the Saleen s7. off of the floor this thing has 750 horsepower with all of that going to the a** end if you were to put nos,a bigger chip,turbo, etc who know what that car will do.I lived in cal for a while and if you car cant out run the cops and you to scared to put your car tho a real rush then leave it to the real racers who know what they are doing and stay the F*** out of our way

street racing has always been around. it only started being a problen when these stupid fast and furious movies came out, then every lame looser tought your every day family gas saving honda was cool. most of these loosers dont know squat about cars they just show up at spots and drive like idiots. street racing was never a problem before those stupid movies came out because the people who were racing then had muscle cars that were actually worth something and knew what they were doing. now its just a bunch of pretty boys who want to show off. people with nice cars dont want to show up there no more because these loosers ruined everything and they dont want to be seen with ricers
