That is not what this is relate to, this was a whole bunch of people that thinks that they are cool and try to show off by racing down a public street in front of other people. Testing your car after you finish can be done on the freeway, you are not going that fast maxing out at 3rd gear with most cars.

 

****'s hot keep up the good work hahahahah

 

I'm not gonna preach anymore but it lost it's glamour after a few years and a few deaths. Be lucky you didn't see the **** I saw and had to drive away. If you choose to do it then nothing we try to say will change your mind. I just hope you don't have to experience anything bad for you to realize it's not worth the risk.

 

i remember in the mid 90's the runs were fun as hell. but then again i was a juvenile. LMAO

ive always thought the oakland runs were pretty safe until people were flipping a bitch while people were running less than a quarter mile back.

 

RACING is dangerous PERIOD. I agree that the track is safer, but people die on and off the track. People who go the runs put themselves there and if they get hurt, there to blame. If it's bullshit then basically everything you do over the speed limit is bullshit and you can't tell me your the safest driver out there. If your saying streetracing is bullshit then your also saying touge is bullshit. if it so pointless why race at all, on or off the track.

also if your saying fwd cars are p.o.s., what makes your rx7 so HIGH AND MIGHTY?
I guess I wont see you at the runs because I'll be that "lil street racer" wanting to race.

 

"I live my life 1/4 mile at a time"

 

yeah, that's great, I won't notice them when they're gone, I might not even know they exist. It's when you take out the poor sap on his way back home and you're "racing" down the same road and take him out.


You're right. I am driving defensively. Sometimes I **** up and do something stupid and I try to improve. I merge after the solid white line, I'm at Hwy speeds by the time I have to merge. My signal is on before I enter the freeway. I move to the fastest lane and follow traffic. I get out of the way of faster cars, only accelerate crazy when the jerk next to me doesn't let me merge, after he clearly sees my signal (which I turn on at the driver's side door), and keep on until I'm in the lane I want/need to be in. I merge towards my exit at least 1/2 mile ahead (depending on traffic) and I can go on and on. Ask my wife.

The shitty part is that you're a bitch to have to deal with in traffic. I'm a nightowl, I love being out at night sometimes and it sucks to not know when you're going to come around the corner. I know to avoid certain parts of town because of this problem but I shouldn't have to. What about anyone who works late? is visiting a relative? anyone who may be on that "deserted road."
unless you're omniscient.

hey, you can defend it all you want you won't change my opinion. It's stupid. It's like playing russian roulette with a 2800lb bullet.

At least you have daylight, and plenty of laps to push your limits and then try the car's limits at the track. Hell, some guy just flipped a civic last friday at thunderhill. I can only speculate as to what happened since we were on the other side of the track but the danger is there. How long do YOU have before the cops show up?

FWD doesn't mesh well with my driving style. I used to drive one, my friends always fucked around with them, I never liked them. I think they're POS. If you build a sweet handling FWD car please let me drive it on the track back to back with my 7. I'll tell you THEN if I still think it's a POS.


naw, I don't think so.

You go right ahead. LIke I said: I grew up and out of that a long time ago. Eventually it just became a bunch of little kids in fast cars. Hope they know how to drive and hope they don't try any of the drift moves they saw somewhere. I try to avoid them.

I dunno, you MIGHT be a cool person but you're a jerk on the roads (if any of this applies to you) and you make things hard for those of us that just want to enjoy the 7. It sucks. I love the sound of an open piped rotary but too many ricers and racers had them. Attracted too much unwanted attention even when you're not doing anything bad.




HAhaha, enjoy:

test:

pop quiz: can you remember the last time you checked the tire pressures? What are they at right now?

go to a gas station/pull out your air gauge. were you off?

 

No point in arguing about street racing. everybody takes each side and doesn't cross over to either or...

But last time I checked my tire pressure. Front was 36lbs cus i filled it up a few days ago, and 24lbs in the rear cus i lowered it that night.

 

How many of those impounded cars will get CRUSHED?

 

100/100

 

0 will get crushed. That's only down South AFAIK.

 

Too much drama in the west lately.

 

haha i dont even check mine at the track. LMAO

 

damnit scratch. I check my **** every two weeks. I double checked them before the track and I still had that blow out on the freeway before the Driver's meeting!!

I checked them after the new tires were installed and then I checked them on my way home.

I guess that's what makes me crazy. Prepare for the worst.

 

wes lives life on the edge.

 

lol, a lot of people do.

 

You know what? This will decimate all... after we put about fifteen grand or more under the hood. If we have to, overnight some parts from Japan.

 

I almost know what you're talking about. I must have missed a vowel somewhere.

 

lol same thing happen to me... just gotta accept it, sht happens!

btw, that subie that was towed... looked stock? lol

 

cuz Oaklan's Smokin' yo! Mad Dope stuff!

 

yea didn't matter stock or modified. If they got you on camera racing you got towed.

 

Well ****, I guess I'm goin to be that jerk on the road just like half of the people on this forum. I'll see you in the slow lane with all the safe prius drivers savin gas

 

The only time I drive in the slow lane is when it's raining. You do whatever you think is right buddy. I could care less, from this point onyou're just one of the many incompetent drivers on the road that I have to look out for.

 

Good job Oakland PD.
