at my place we do ilegal racing, we have the road marked where the start nd finish is, the road is mostly quiet, not much ppl prefer that road because of the racing all the time, only thing u have to worry about is the cops, its like in the fast and the furious movie when everybody tries to run away!!! my cuzin has a '86 rx7 i use that car to race, you know rotary engines are pretty powerfull, his does 12.87 sec with 100 shot of nos, engine is N/A Last edited by SilenceboneSupra; 03-10-2008 at 12:51 PM. |

My son lost his Supra to me for pretty much the same reason. No, I didn't take it away from him, he had too many tickets in too short of time. And I couldn't afford for him to be on my insurance and he found that the Supra was costing him too much on his own. He now drives a Paseo and hasn't had a ticket in two years. And I have the Supra, but due to issues (head gasket now) I haven't been able to drive it too much yet.
Cops love to go after the younger crowd! Because of all the racing related accidents out here in SoCal, if you are suspected of racing, many of the local jurisdictions are confisating the cars, then taking them to a smasher and then just junking them. Consider yourself lucky if you have a car to sell. Racing on public roads is just asking for trouble, I know it is great sport, but there are a lot of kids getting killed, more so then a few years ago. I think a lot of it is that the cars go faster and the drivers are not experienced enough to handle the speeds. Either way, look at it as an expensive lesson and next time, use a radar detector.

I have 2 "speed contest" tickets on my record the first was STUPID We were turning left from a light with cars in front of us my friend smoked his tires i was in a 89 accord come on now whats that going to race? He wrote 17MPH in a 30 but said i was racing got a $350 fine 2 points and license taken for a month. 2nd was my fault i was racing a WG6 or whatever firebird on race fuel in my old 71 nova 450HP 4 speed hehe. Anyway ya we raced but only got up to like 45 and got tagged they took my car sold it $1800 fine 2 more points 5 days in jail and 6 month license suspention. Now days in cali street racing is a felony so heads up. Oh if your wondering yes I won AND he broke his car which ended up being his moms and he was in his 30's it was pretty funny she came up screaming thats my car you cant tow my car blah blah blah lmao. He over revved it and broke something lol.

Funny story about pulling over and the other guy running....
My friend was racing in his m3, not sure who against but the cops saw and he pulled off and stoped his friend kept going. The cop told him to follow him and they both pursued the other guy. When the cop caught up to the one who ran he just told my friend to go... And wrote every ticket he could think of to the other guy hahaha On a side note i have never raced my car and do not plan on it unless its on a track. Car means too much to me to get it impounded or what not. besides its just too damn expensive. Have got a few bogus tickets myself but was able to get them dismissed. This you first offense? look into getting the tickets differed if your state allows it and make sure you dont get into any more trouble in 6mos and they drop off.
