I also agree. My need-4-speed gets settled at lapping days, solosprints and autoslalom. I had my days of foolishness on the streets in my younger years, and have no desire for a "stunting" charge.

At 45 I got nailed with a stunting charge (403.00 no points) and I think I was travelling at 20-30k's max

Keep the racing on the track. Roads are for cruising.

I'll admit I'm prob one of the few ppl I know here that's finally toned things down. But after getting the "dangerous driver" premium added to my insurance ( 3 speeding tickets, 1 excessive, 2 excessive noise aka: burnouts, and two stunting tickets on my bikes) I have good reason. I do miss kickin some Honda *** on the street and with the Tsi being built to the nuts, it'll be hard keeping it to the track. There's a stupid Lexus sc300 that's been bothering me here lol gotta whoop his ***.
Funny that you all say street racing is dying, it's pretty well in full force here. Some epic semi organized crap usually once or twice a month. Usually in the industrial area.

Well, thought I would throw in my two cents. I am not into street racing, keep it at the track. Someone tried to race me a few weeks ago and I took off nice and slowwww, guess that must really frustrate some people when I do that but it's not worth it. My 8 year old son was in the back seat asking what the screaching tires and smoke in front of us was all about. I always tell him: "I already know my car has alot of power, I don't need to prove it to anyone else."

I enjoy street racing. In fact I just had a heads up race last night!!

Whooped the other guy really bad too!


We were both on our bikes. I pulled my front end up a bit and left him waaaaay back!

Now, I did feel kind of sorry later.





























I probably should have let my son at least get a head start considering he still has his training wheels on.
Those things have to slow you up!!!
