when you have kids threatening your job, your vehicle (which basically is your job) your hundreds of thousands of dollar cargo, and your life...i think they have the right to give them a fair scare.
the only kids who hit the semis are the ones who have bigger ***** then driving skills, it comes down to the fact that if the kid wasnt doing it in the first place it never would've happened.

Would it be wrong for me to start running people off the road?? What if someone is driving like an idiot, tailgating, and such. I think I'm gonna give em a fender and tell the cops it was their fault for driving stupid.
You talk down on people for breaking laws by street racing, but you praise the ones that break the law and kill them. Whitch side of the fence are you on??

now quote that other topic:
" open two laned road "
see thats the road im talking about, there's no way onto the road except at the end where it's a T intersection and a light. There's no shoulder, and everything past the curb is light brush which becomes forest a bit farther back. I know every bump in the road (drive on it literally hundreds of times a week). The road is very suitable for spirited speeds, ive seen some people crazier then i take it doing ~150mph
As far as "racing" that was me speeding more then any racing, unless you know some form of racing that starts at like 80mph and ends at like 120. no i didnt think you did.
and before you try to call me a hypocrite read my msgs, i fl;at out said i'll do high speed runs, but i dont race.

While it all may be considered street racing it can still be very different.
Two fast cars at a stoplight showing off to one another while being dangerous and irresponsible is completely different than a bunch of high school kids trying to play the fast and the furious with the full intent of going out, and racing.
Flame me if you want for mentioning my supra but i'm using it as an example. Everytime i get into my car a small part of me wishes i come up to a red stoplight against a similar car in my class to run. However i do not go out on weekends to hang out with my friends for the sole purpose of hanging out and street racing. I don't go talk to people requesting races on public roads nor do i accept such preset races like 4rr enjoys to do on the weekends. And by preset i mean just about anything outside or you cruising and a fast car that needs to be taught a lesson pulls up next to you. On the same note there is a difference in judgement between tfatf wannabes and most of the people here i hope. We don't go racing in traffic and if it doesnt look like a good place to race(unsafe) then chances are we won't.
In fact while not everyone may follow this a lot of you guys drive FD's. Why would you race someone? You know that you're faster than them. Stooping down to their level shows that you would actually consider your car to be as slow as theirs and is a complete waste of gas. Truly fast cars take it to the strip. Why waste your highly modified extremely fast car racing honda hand me downs that have been riced out?

occasional high speeds in controlled and comfortable environments has nothing to do with racing. back to my 3kgt thing, i probably wouldve went that fast if the 3kgt wasnt there he just gave me something to laugh at while going that fast.

and ONE more thing about the 3kgt.
i downshifted.... INTO 4TH, if i was racing i wouldve looked for a more powerful gear, i put 4th down pretty hard and didnt really accelerate super fast, i couldve dropped it to third if i wanted to "race" him the way he was trying to race me.
