For some reason it wont work, but ill go to dereks sometime and check it out.
Wow, that takes alot of restraint especially when you got a fast camaro thats begging you to floor it good job though, its the responsible thing to do.
My first time was a couple days ago it wasnt really a race but kind of a game of high speed tag. Of course it was out in the backroads of washington, where me and a bmw were goin head to head up a huge hill with a couple twists and turns. That was the biggest adrenalin rush ive ever had, but probably the last time ill do it again in a looong time.
I think dereks had an experience with a turbo'd porsche 911 Too bad hes not on.

oh yea a GT2 turbo...ahah forgot to mention that one...I was at a 4 way stop and I was being nice and let this Porsche go first and as soon as he turned he took off down the road, and as I was making a right I decided to play catch up...the porsche was already a couple seconds ahead of me and I hit 60 by the time it started to slow down...you could hear the turbo and accceleration all the way down the road...if he had kept going, I would have never been able to catch up, when i did, I slammed on my gas a couple times behind him to see if he would respond but he didnt and made a left turn into a neighbor hood...Oh well it was fun...not a race but more of him showing off his Porsche and I thought Id do the same. Personally I hate street racing,but having fun once in a while is cool.

I admit I used to street race a lot, But I will never ever do it again.
I lost two good friends in a street racing accident I was at, It definatly hit home. Dont do it guys its not worth, no matter how safe you think you are or because your on a backroad thinking no cars will come. We felt the same way that night but disasters do happen. Dont risk it.

Yeah I just don't feel safe racing people on city streets Im afraid some ******** little kid will walk out infront of me.. or Ill crash or the other driver will.. In the videos of me and Justin ******* around on the interstate you can see noone atall was infront or inback of us so I felt safe enough to play around.
Also, to my ashtonishment no ricer has ever tryed to race me and backhome im in ricer heaven.

Of course I'm pretty out spoken against street racing so I'd be a hyprocrite if I street raced myself.

I have done it.... I used to quite a bit. Sometimes I will play around, but only if theres not much traffic around.. I got pulled over so many times within the first year and half of owning my car its rediculous... Ive been good for a while, so I dont mess around too much.

I guess i can add to this 1. i never have in the Taurus hahaha anyways main reason is i have had too many close calls wether with cops or accidents i was almost the cause of an SRT-4 doin about 90 into a Buick after that i haven't done much plus it seems like a waste to me if someone wants to race they can take me to the track it's only like 30 mins. away if they can put me down there more power to them. but when ricers try to run you off the road cause they are pissed you just smoked them in your mom's impala that's just to far for me

Wow, people on this forum are really responsible thats good to hear.
Every once in a while though its fun to play around, especially in washington when the weathers good and your in the backroads at a place called grahm where theres no cars for miles and just open straight roads. Its actually pretty cool to test out your car and see what its capable of, you just have to watch for deer.
