Default wow

You know, I am not going to sit hear and blow smoke up peoples asses, and say that I have never street raced. But as I got older, I also got wiser with this, and do not do it anymore.
He did not want to race?
then why did he? case of the dumb ass.

And he is going to do this kind of crap, I am not condoning it but, AT LEAST MAKE SURE YOUR SAFETY EQUIPMENT IS UP TO SNUFF!!!!!

Taken from another site

"I've seen this guy race many times and I have seen him race with the kid in the car and it got squirrelly on that pass as well. For the people saying he didn't wanna race that's a load hell I've got 3 videos of the thing racing in one day. It sounds like he'll pull through and thankfully the boy wasn't in the car on that pass. But yes that was our best street and is ruined now im sure for some time".

Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.

I'm surprised the authorities didn't say they were pressing charges.

I dont know if it was Jeff Smith or Terry McGean or whoever, but I had a pretty funny back and forth about that very subject on facebook.
