I'll think twice before......

God I got scared yesterday! .....I was racing this kid that I found on the street...He has a Talon (eclipse) like a 1995-1997(8) He started racing me so I went @ it...the next thing I knew, we got to a part on the street that has a biiiiiiggggg curve like an S...we were doing over 120 mph...my car handles really good but that was too crazy, I wasn't expecting that...the other kid lost control of the car, did a 360, hit the medium of the street and started going backwards. But some how, they didn't get killed. So we stopped and I asked them if they were ok, they said it was fun (It wasn't) and then I just left (there were 2 guys and a girl (16-18 Years old) Nothing happened to the car, only a little crack on the front bumper... I think Im gonna go for more looks now and stop racing people on the streets.... I didn't wanna race but he started so I went for it....Im gonna think more than twice before I do that again....

amen, im definitely one for having the total package (show and go), but you start to realize your priorities as you get older and realize how dangerous the streets really are.

That shit's crazy!! I mean I do 120 strait sometimes, but it's always a strait away. Some people feel as though they always have something to prove, so they always wanna race a car that is hooked up and looks nice, so they can say they beat a " ". At least no one was severly hurt and or killed and at least your car was not effected. Be careful and drive safe.

I'm glad that neither you or they were hurt!

Sounds like it's time to Make your CL "da bomb". What are you planning to do "for looks"?

Street racing definitely has a rush to it, but I'm glad you're thinking twice!
