Message	It is one thing to risk your own life but to put an innocent life at risk and that persons whole family is another thing. I don't think people realize how long it takes to slow a car down going over a 100mph and when someone is next to you that you want to beat (pride let's admit it) your not about to be the first to let off. I don't believe we should live life with no risk but we should not be stupid and risk everyone elses life either. That's the problem with some of these movies, they leave out reality. In the movies you can fly down a sidewalk in a car and eveyone jumps out of the way and noone gets killed (or if they do no one seems to care). I was racing my cousin on a motorcycle when I was 17 and as I passed him at over 100mph some grandpa pulled out in front of us with a little camper trailer behind him. Thank God I was able to stop just in time (bikes stop quick, not cars) but my cousin did not know how to drive and slammed on the back brake which did nothing except make a cloud of smoke. he just missed the car and went over a bank and rolled the bike (saw it all in front of me), the bike was in pieces. Thankfully he made it out alive. He missed hitting a cement marker post by inches though. JoneZ 90' 300ZX TT
