I used to, but damn near killed myself and my best friend in the car and havent have the urge to ever since. Racing down a 3 lane street I hit wet street going around a bend at about 110 and hydroplaned across all 3 lanes and caught control within a foot or so from a huge tree. Scared me shitless for about 2 weeks, I rarely take my car above 85 or 90 now.

i still race, even after all the stuff ive seen... i went racing in the oakland area once and this stupid Prelude SH lost to a sohc civic, and on the way back he tried to act like even tho he lost that he was still the fastest car around and came back doing like 75 and lost control.... his car had neon lights under it (stupid IMO)! when he lost control, he hit the curb, flew up about 6 feet in the air and landed on top of an electrical box... the car looked like a flying spaceship with the neon lights under it [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG] i laugh now, but everyone that was there at the time **** their pants

Yeah I still street race even after all the 'what-ifs' i've been through. I seem to forget the danger I put myself into whenever I race over and over again...

It's tough to race on a track when you don't have one. The nearest one is 3 hours away.

[IMG]i/expressions/demon.gif[/IMG] Even after spinning out, almost losing control and running from cops in helicopters....I still do occasionally.
But for the most of the time....you can catch me racing "legally" at rally events. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]
