that's not road racing.

that's stupid, ignorant, selfish, foolish, idiotic, ricer bullshit. you're going to kill someone driving like that. crossing over the lines and crap, going into oncoming blind turn lanes while moving at 100+ mph.

what if someone had been running, biking, or broken down in the oncoming lane? or any other number of scenarios.

you're going to get flamed to hell for that crap. hell, i'm debating if i should just delete this thread.

No. I NEVER weave in and out of traffic or hit high speeds in traffic. If I race someone it's with NO traffic (not ONE car) and most certainly not "weaving" nor crossing into the oncoming lane. It's also on a straight shot where I can see WELL ahead of me. BIG difference. Get your facts straight.

i dont care where you live, it doesn't make it ok. and you're right, street racing CAN be just as bad, IF you are racing like an asshat through traffic trying to be all fast and furious.


if you're giong to hit a road like that and do some spirited driving, do it during the daytime, and STAY IN YOUR LANE.

We have autobahns with double guard rails and stretches with no speed limit for that sort of thing. And a really big loop called Nurburgring. Please don't do that on the public streets.

Judging by the lines that you decided to take (because you obviously did not care where you were on the road so I am assuming you were taking what grand turismo taught you was the most efficient) you really have no clue how to really drive. This couple with your cars lack of handling capabilities displayed by the excessive body roll and bounciness (undoubtedly a result of a car that either just has springs/coilovers or is way to low). You are very lucky you did not kill yourself and the dumbass that got in the car with you.

Btw...it is stupid to cut corners at night. Any racing isn't safe, even when regulated. Ppl always get hurt just to certain degrees.

Heres a video

This has to be proof that Darwin is a lazy bastard. He should have claimed you at birth. Or better yet, your parents. This has to be one of the best examples of immature, initial-D driven ricer idiocy I've seen in a looooong time.


And if you can tell the difference between setting up a drag race between two consenting cars in the middle of nowhere on a straight road where you can SEE ONCOMMING TRAFFIC and this bullshit, you need to get smacked upside the head with a tire iron.

BTW, neither of you dumbasses have "skills". Being lucky and not crashing your car while driving fast is way different then actually understanding and applying proper racing techniques. Go take a proper racing class and get some real track time with an instructor before you get laughed off the internet... again.

racing on public roads in general is illegal/dangerous/idiotic/*insert lame word here* lol.

1. If you keep doing that you are asking for trouble, it will pretty bad too considering those speeds you were at.
2. You could have atleast been on a real curvy hilly road, and shown some driving skill. It was pretty lame, your tires never even squeeled, never really took it to limits of car, just driver. You probably were about to wet your pants just becuase of the speed, am i right, or am i right?
3. What was the point of the rsx footage?


There are actually some roads where i live if you plan on driving really fast on it is more dangerous during the day, atleast if you plan on going in both lanes. It is still dangerous cause you could not see a kid or deer in the road around turn and bam. This usually not the case though, you have to really know the roads.
I make it a rule never to pass on solid lines, never drive in other lane even when you know your the only one out there. I think it is a bad habit. If i am cornering and can see around turn then i will drift over a bit.

There was one time at night when i took a turn too fast, trying to scare my friends, and slid in the other lane. Actually was the first time i got all four tires to substantially slide with out hand brake. I know the roads well and you can see headlights if there is a car coming. It really is still very dangerous cause there could be a car just stalled out there, or a deer or a child and mother. Could you imagine what a baby would look like splattered on your tire or the sound???-this type of stuff keeps me from doing it alot.

No matter how safe, or how you somehow think that racing on the road is safe or safer, you really are kidding yourself, i just did it!!!! Even if you are where you can see for miles, there could always be something.
To many variables that are uncontrolled, it ain't possible.
