Message	My dad always tells me stories of the glory days of street racing. They used to line up all over the place. Sounds cool as hell. Then he calls us pussies because we have disk brakes and alot more technology to make the cars safer. I think street racing is one of America's passtimes that has been so demonized by the media that it now is seen as a problem. I'd condone it if done in a safe environment on the outskirts of town or the like. Or empty freeways. If in traffic though, with many people around, I understand the harsh laws. -------------------------------------------------------- 1990 Z32 Twin Turbo 1992 Honda Prelude 4WS VTEC - For Sale 1991 Infiniti Q45 - Parting Out 1977 Datsun 280z For Sale 1972 Datsun 240z For Sale - SOLD 1971 Datsun 240z For Sale - SOLD 1970 Datsun 240z For Sale - Early VIN. 1965 Chevrolet Pickup - 500ci Coming Soon
